<span>The 5th grader won't really understand the significance of what that will mean to her or her life. She is a child and views the world as something magical and the harsh realities that we adults live through is not apparent to her at this age. She will need to understand that she is special and this unfortunate illness has taken a hold of her. She will need to know that her life won't be the same again but it is not a reason to not play and live life to its fullest. She needs to know that she is not different to anyone else and that this illness does not define her being. People may see her as such but that should not be her definition of herself. She needs to feel safe.</span>

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!
