Mendel’s Principles Revisited

1.Incomplete Dominance

In incomplete dominance, neither allele is __________ so there is a blending of ______ when two different alleles for the same trait occur together.

Colors blendblend together (______________

individuals = 3rd phenotype)

2.Codominance Both _______ contribute to the

phenotype of the organism by showing up simultaneously (at the same time) in heterozygous individuals.

In cattle and horses, if you cross a pure ____ (RR) with a pure ______ (WW), you get (RW) which produces the color _____.

3.Multiple Alleles

In this pattern of inheritance, the genes have more than _____ alleles controlling them and are therefore said to have multiple alleles. No individual has more than _____ alleles, but there are more than _____ possible alleles in a population, so a ______ will be expressed in more than two forms.
