Expert Solution
Step 1

Introduction :-

Incomplete dominance is a type of genetic interaction in which the phenotype of the offspring is a mixture of the two parental phenotypes, rather than being a straightforward expression of one dominant or recessive allele. This occurs when the alleles from the two parents do not have a clear dominant-recessive relationship and both contribute equally to the phenotype of the offspring.
