Is it easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with complete dominance or in organisms with incomplete dominance?

It is easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with incomplete dominance (also known as codominance), because in incomplete dominance the individual will show a specific phenotype for each situation, whether it is homozygous dominant, heterozygous, or homozygous recessive. For example, in flowers, such as the ones that Mendel studied, a homozygous dominant flower will be red, a homozygous recessive flower will be white, and a heterozygous flower will be pink.
In complete dominance, a heterozygous will only express the dominant phenotype, as opposed to incomplete dominance, in which a heterozygous individual will express a phenotype that is representative of both of the dominant and recessive traits. Because heterozygous individuals in complete dominance express the dominant phenotype, it is hard to determine whether the genotype is homozygous dominant or heterozygous for the trait.
Hope this helps!

Dominance that occurs whenever the hybrid genotype produces a new intermediate phenotype?
When a heterozygous genotype (two different alleles) results in an intermediate phenotype, this is either codominance or incomplete dominance. If it is codominance, then both alleles are expressed together in the phenotype. If it is incomplete dominance, the two alleles produce a blended phenotype rather than both alleles being expressed together.
What is the term for the condition in which hybrid offspring exhibit a phenotype that is midway between the dissimilar traits of parent organisms?
Incomplete Dominance.
What and what Are similar because the heterozygous phenotype is different from the homozygous dominant phenotpe?
Incomplete Dominance and Codominance.
When the phenotype of heterozygotes show some aspects of both homozygotes this is called?
Incomplete Dominance - Thia, soy una latina
What is the difference between incomplete dominance and codominance?
co dominance is when there is no dominant or reccessive traits just lie in in incomplete dominance the diffrence is in co dominance the are mkore chromosomes
True or false the phenotype of the herozygote is intermediate of for incomplete dominance?
It is true that phenotype of the herozygote is intermediate for incomplete dominance.
What is similar because the heterozygous phenotype is different from the homozygous dominant phenotype?
incomplete dominance

Incomplete Dominance.
How is incomplete dominance expressed in phenotype?
In complete dominance, only one allele in the genotype is seen in the phenotype. In codominance, both alleles in the genotype are seen in the phenotype. In incomplete dominance, a mixture of the alleles in the genotype is seen in the phenotype.
What and what Are similar because the heterozygous phenotype is different from the homozygous dominant phenotpe?
Incomplete Dominance and Codominance.
When one trait is not completely dominant over another?
This is called codominance in this case, neither allele is dominant over another, it creates in heterozyogous individuals a phenotype that is not in intermediate, nor the phenotype either of the two alleles create, but rather, a different phenotype.
