Activity No. 6
Non-Mendelian Pattern of Inheritance

A. Fill up the missing column to compare and contrast Incomplete dominance and codominance using
the complete dominance as the basis of comparison.

Monohybrid cross Complete Incomplete Codominance

B. Problem:
1. Using a Punnett square, determine the resulting offspring of a cross between pink flower of
the snapdragon plant with a pure white flower snapdragon plant. What is the probability of
producing white flower snapdragon? Pink flower? Red flower?
• Pink -Aa
• White -aa
• Red -AA
Aa x aa
A a
a Aa Aa
a Aa aa
Probabilities:
White Flower =25%
Pink Flower =75%
Red Flower =0%

2. What is the probability of producing an offspring of pure white cattle from a cross between
heterozygous cattle with codominance trait?
• White -WW
• Brown -BB
• White-Brown -WB
WB x WB
W B
W WW WB
B WB BB
Probabilities:
Pure White =25%
