Answer 1

Answer:

D. Incomplete dominance

• When the phenotypic and genotypic ratios are the same in the F2 generation, it is an example of incomplete dominance.

• This is because the dominant gene is not able to completely suppress the recessive gene, resulting in an intermediate phenotype in the offspring.
