Here's a breakdown:
* Dominant Gene: A gene that expresses its trait even if only one copy is present.
* Recessive Gene: A gene that only expresses its trait if two copies are present.
* Incomplete Dominance: A situation where neither allele is completely dominant, resulting in a blended phenotype.
Example:
* Flower Color: Let's say red flower color (R) is dominant and white flower color (r) is recessive.
* RR: Red flower
* rr: White flower
* Rr: Pink flower (incomplete dominance, a blend of red and white)
In incomplete dominance, the heterozygous individual (Rr) expresses a phenotype that's intermediate between the two homozygous phenotypes (RR and rr).
