Question

How are dominance, codominance and incomplete dominance patterns of inheritance different from each other?

Answer 1

Dominance	Co-dominance	Incomplete dominance
When two different factors or a pair of contrasting forms of a character are present in an organism, only one expresses itself in the F1 generation and is termed as dominant while the other remains unexpressed and is called recessive factor	When both the alleles are present together in a heterozygous organism and express their traits independently instead of showing dominant recessive relationship are called as co-dominant. alleles and the phenomenon is called co dominance.	Incomplete dominance is the phenomenon where none of the two contrasting genes or factors (alleles) are dominant and the expression of the character in a F1 hybrid individual is intermediate type.
