In this lab activity i learned that there are three types of dominance. There is dominance, which is when the allele is completely dominant over the other. In this lab, the pea plants showed this. Then there is co- dominance. This means that both the alleles of a certain trait are expressed equally. In the lab the lentils showed this. The next type is incomplete dominance. This mean that one allele for a specific trait is not completely dominant over the other. I thought the most interesting on was what would happen when you bred a white and red snapdragon. The offspring turned out pink meaning that both the allele had mixed together to create a whole new snapdragon. This showed incomplete dominance.
