In co-dominance, both alleles are expressed in the offspring; in incomplete dominance, the offspring demonstrate an intermediate form of the alleles from the parents.
Explanation
An allele is one of the different forms or versions of a gene. A homozygote possesses two copies of the same allele, while heterozygote possesses two different alleles. Phenotype of an organism means its physical appearance and genotype is the genetic code, which is the combination of alleles inherited from the parents. Incomplete dominance is is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait does not completely expressed over the other allele, and thus a third phenotype is produced in which the expressed physical trait is a complete mixture of the phenotypes of both alleles from the parents. Here, one allele does not dominate or mask the other while displaying a new trait. Example of incomplete dominance is Snapdragon, where a red snapdragon flower is paired with a white snapdragon flower, the result is a pink color flower. Co-dominance is the condition in which both the alleles are fully dominant and both the alleles for a specific trait are equally expressed. Thus the resultant phenotype of the offspring will express both the character of parent alleles equally. Example of co-dominance is AB blood type in humans, where both the A allele and the B allele are equally expressed.
