For a trait such as flower color in snapdragons that is determined by two alleles with incomplete dominance, the offspring of true-breeding parents show an intermediate phenotype. This is also what would be expected of blending inheritance. The difference isthat the trait with:

A) Mendelian inheritance will lose the variation over time.

B) Blending inheritance will lose the variation over time.

C) Mendelian inheritance shows no segregation in the F2generation.

D) Blending inheritance shows segregation in the F2generation

Answer is C.

Explanation:

The inheritance character which was specifically transmitted by genes as postulated by Gregor Mendel, is known as Mendelian inheritance. This can be further explained as the way by which there is transferred of genes and traits from the parents to their children.

The law of inheritance by Gregor Mendel is of three types. These are

* law of segregation

* law of independent assortment

* law of dominance.
