Complex Inhertiance Patterns

When alleles are neither dominant nor recessive (As a result, both alleles are expressed in the offspring.).

• codominance
• probability
• recessive allele
• Punnett Square

This diagram represents what type of inheritance pattern?

• sex-linked inheritance
• complete dominance
• codominance
• incomplete dominance

A red flowered plant (RR) breeds with a White flowered plant (WW). The gene for petal color in these plants expresses incomplete dominance.  What percentage of the offspring will have pink (RW) flowers?

• 0%
• 25%
• 50%
• 100%

The image shows the pattern of inheritance for colorblindness.  From this diagram we can tell that colorblindness is

• a codominant trait
• a sex-linked trait
• carried on the Y chromosome
• is associated with a dominant allele

How are Incomplete Dominance and Co Dominance different than a normal Mendelian cross?

• There is no difference
• The heterozygous genotype has a unique phenotype
• There is no heterozygous genotype
• There is only one phenotype regardless of genotype.

What are the four types of complex heredity?

• codominance, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, and polygenic traits

• incomplete dominance, mendelian traits, non-mendelian traits, and genotype

• polygenic traits, homozygous, heterozygous, and epistasis

• traits, genes, genotype, and phenotype.

A trait needs more than one, or many, genes to be expressed (examples: eye color, hair color, height, etc.).

• epistasis

• codominance

• incomplete dominance

• polygenic triats
