The Hairless phenotype in Drosophila is caused by a recessive mutation in the H gene. Wild-type Drosophila have hair on all body segments. Two heterozygous Hh Drosophila are crossed: 25% of the offspring have normal hair on their bodies and 25% have no hair at all. 50% of the offspring have less hair on their bodies than wild type, and the amount of hair they have varies. The Hairless phenotype in Drosophila displays what relationship between alleles? Select all that apply. Incomplete dominance Codominance Incomplete penetrance Variable expressivity

Incorrect
• In incomplete penetrance, some individuals with a particular genotype have a phenotype that does not
match their genotype.

Transcribed Image Text:In cows, there is a phenotype called Roan, in which a single hair has alternating bands of white and brown
pigmentation, leading to an overall reddish appearance. A true-breeding white cow (homozygous recessive) is bred to
a true-breeding brown cow (homozygous dominant). Among the resulting offspring, 75% are Roan and 25% are brown.
