How does incomplete dominance differ from incomplete penetrance?a. Incomplete dominance refers to alleles at the same locus; incomplete penetrance refers to alleles at different loci.b. Incomplete dominance ranges from 0% to 50%; incomplete penetrance ranges from 51% to 99%.c. In incomplete dominance, the heterozygote is intermediate between the homozygotes; in incomplete penetrance, heterozygotes express phenotypes of both homozygotes.d. In incomplete dominance, the heterozygote is intermediate between the homozygotes; in incomplete penetrance, some individuals do not express the expected phenotype
