Question

Snapdragons, a flowering plant popular with gardeners, can have red, white, and pink colored petals. When snapdragons with red petals (RR) are crossed with snapdragons having white (WW) petals, the offspring have pink petals. The pink coloration (RW) is a phenotype in between the red and white parental phenotypes. What is this kind of inheritance pattern called?

Answer 1

Answer:

I think it is called selective breeding, I don't think it is called that but hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer: Incomplete Dominance.

Explanation: When snapdragons with red petals (RR) are crossed with snapdragons having white (WW) petals, the offspring will have pink petals. This will make the pink coloration (RW). Since both of these genotypes are dominant it is Incomplete Dominance because the R does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele, which in this case theres none.
