Codominance
Overlay card: Codominance
Setup
During setup, place this card over the Phenotype Research Goal for Flower Color (FF/Ff) to create a pair of distinct Goals for the Homozygous (FF) and Heterozygous (Ff) configurations.
Science Note
Pea plants exhibit a complete (Mendelian) dominance pattern for flower color, but other species do not. In codominance patterns, both phenotypes (purple and white) are present in heterozygous individuals.
Incomplete Dominance
Overlay card: Incomplete Dominance
Setup
During setup, place this card over the Phenotype Research Goal for Plant Height (TT/Tt) to create a pair of distinct Goals for the Homozygous (TT) and Heterozygous (Tt) configurations.
Science Note
Pea plants exhibit a complete (Mendelian) dominance pattern for height, but other species do not. In incomplete dominance patterns, an intermediate phenotype (medium height) is present in heterozygous individuals.
