Explain incomplete dominance, using snapdragon<br> flowers as an example.
oee [108]

Answer:

Dominant allele does not completely conceal recessive allele.

Snapdragon with genotype Rr (R being red and r being white), would have a phenotype of pink flowers.

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is where a dominant allele is not able to completely conceal a recessive allele, usually leading to a phenotype which appears to be a combination of the two.

For example, in snapdragons:

The allele for red flowers (R) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (r). Let's say a snapdragon flower had the genotype Rr, one allele for red flowers and one for white. In the case of 'normal' dominance the dominant red flower allele (R) would mask the effects of the recessive white flower allele (r), resulting in the phenotype (outward observable characteristics) of having red flowers.

However here in the case of incomplete dominance, the dominant allele would not be able to fully cover up the effects of the white flower allele, meaning that both colors (red and white) are expressed in the phenotype, resulting in pink flowers.

Hope this helped!

What effect do you expect the structural differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes to have on their functions?
Shtirlitz [24]
The main difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is the presence of nucleus in eukaryotes and its absence in prokaryotes. Also, prokaryotes are unicellular, so one cell is a whole organism. On the other hand, eukaryotes are mainly multicellular, and thus more complex. More complex DNA is inside the nucleus in the eukaryotes which enables them to conduct a wider range of functions. Prokaryotes, as a single cell, have simple functions present.
