When the phenotype of a heterozygote is an intermediate, or blend, between the phenotypes of pure-breeding parents (e.g. pink flowers from red and white parents), the two alleles/copies of a gene are said to be

Mendel proposed that each parent contributes one copy of a “factor” (gene). Different copies, or alternate forms of the same gene (e.g. B, b) are called
