∙ 14y agoIt 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!

∙ 14y agoIt is generally easier to analyze genotype by observing phenotype in organisms with complete dominance because the phenotypic expression directly reflects the genotype. In contrast, with incomplete dominance, the phenotype is an intermediate between the two homozygous genotypes, making it more challenging to accurately determine the genotype solely based on the phenotype.
The term for this condition is called "incomplete dominance." This occurs when the hybrid offspring display a phenotype that is a blend or intermediate of the traits shown by the parent organisms.
Incomplete dominance occurs when the heterozygous genotype produces a phenotype that is a blend of the two alleles. This results in an intermediate phenotype that is distinct from the phenotypes of both homozygous genotypes.

A trait that exhibits incomplete dominance, is one in which the heterozygous offspring will have a phenotype that is a blend between the two parent organisms. An example of this is when a homozygous red sweet pea flower crossed with a homozygous white sweet pea flower, their offspring will be heterozygous and have the pink phenotype, rather than either red or white. So, the homozygous red flower will be red, the homozygous white flower will be white, and the heterozygous flower will be pink. So there are three possible phenotypes in incomplete dominance. There are also no dominant or recessives genotypes.
True. In incomplete dominance, the heterozygote exhibits an intermediate phenotype that is a blend of the two homozygous phenotypes. This is different from complete dominance, where the dominant allele completely masks the expression of the recessive allele in the heterozygote.
Both heterozygous and homozygous dominant genotypes have the same dominant allele, resulting in a similar overall phenotype. The difference lies in the fact that heterozygous individuals have one dominant and one recessive allele, leading to a different genotype than homozygous dominant individuals who have two dominant alleles.

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.
Incomplete Dominance and Codominance.
This is known as incomplete dominance, where the heterozygous individual exhibits a phenotype that is intermediate between the two homozygous parents. An example is when a red flower and a white flower cross to produce pink flowers.

codominance. In codominance, both alleles contribute to the phenotype and are fully expressed in the offspring. This results in a distinct phenotype that is a combination of the traits associated with each allele.
