The allele would be called codominant
When a dominant and recessive allele exist in an organism, only the dominant allele will be expressed. Dominant allele always mask the recessive because the gene code a protein while recessive gene doesn't. When both gene code a protein, they will be codominant and both gene will be expressed. The result could be a mixed effect. In this case, the purple is mixed color of red and blue.
From the brightness of the light of course. If the brightness is increasing it means the the light source is approaching and if the brightness is decreasing it means the light source is leaving.
