Answer:

b. incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is a type of inheritance that does not confirm to Mendel's principles of inheritance i.e it is non-mendelian. Incomplete dominance occurs when an allele of a gene does not completely mask the expression of another allele of the same gene, hence, the two alleles combine to form a heterozygous that is different but intermediate of both parent phenotypes.

This is the case in this question where the red allele (R) of a four o'clock plant is INCOMPLETELY DOMINANT over the white allele (W), hence, they both produce an intermediate pink phenotype (RW), which is a blending of both red and white phenotypes.

PLSS HELP how is gene knockout similar to gene sequencing?
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Gene knockout is a technique used to determine the function of a gene that has already been sequenced, which is achieved by analyzing the phenotype of the individual carrying the knockout mutation(s). Moreover, gene sequencing is a technique used to determine the sequence of a given gene, which allows to determine how gene variants (polymorphisms) may be associated with the phenotypes of the target trait.  

Explanation:

In genetics, gene knockout is a technique used to trigger mutations in a (already) sequenced gene in order to inactive its function and observe the resulting phenotype for a particular trait. This approach that starts with the inactivation of a given gene and ends with the phenotype is known as reverse-genetics. On the other hand, gene sequencing can be defined as the methodologies/techniques/tools used to determine the nucleotide base pair sequence of a particular gene. The gene knockout technique involves knowing a priori the gene sequence in order to obtain a gene knockout (gene KO). The combination of the information obtained from these techniques can be used to determine how variation (genetic variation) affects the expression of a phenotypic trait.
