Hint: Antirrhinum if a plant genus commonly known as Dragon flowers or Snapdragon because of a flower resemblance to the Dragon face that opens and closes its mouth when it is squeezed. They are native to the regions of Europe, the United States and North Africa.

Complete answer:
Several species of Antirrhinum are self-incompatible which means that a plant cannot be fertilized by its pollen. Self-incompatibility in the gene has been studied since the early 1900s.

Option A: Incomplete dominance: Incomplete dominance is the point at which a prevailing allele, or type of quality, doesn't cover the impacts of a passive allele, and the life form's subsequent actual appearance shows a mixing of the two alleles. It is additionally called semi- dominance or incomplete dominance. The example of this case is the red snapdragon flower. If homozygous red snapdragons (RR) are crossed with homozygous white snapdragons (WW), the F1 age will have every single pink blossom (RW). If two of these half breed pink snapdragons are crossed, the subsequent F2 age is anticipated to create 25% red blossoms (homozygous-RR), half pink blossoms (heterozygous-RW), and 25% white blossoms (homozygous-WW).

When F1 hybrids exhibit a variety of the blending of characters of two parents it is called inadequate dominance. For example, in Snapdragon, one parent is homozygous for red flowers (AA) And the other is homozygous for white flowers (aa). No dominance is present and the heterozygous F1 flowers are pink. The 1:2:1 ratio of red, pink and white flowers in the F2 progeny are shown by appropriate colouring. Incomplete dominance or "mixing legacy" happens when every one of two differentiating alleles is communicated somewhat in a half and a half and the aggregate is a middle of the road between the other options. The first aggregates return when new homozygous people are made.

Option B:Codominance: in codominance, both alleles of a pair express themselves fully in the F1 hybrid. For example, in cattle’s when a cow with the red coat is crossed with a cow having the white coat, the F1 hybrid possesses roan appearance. In roan appearance, the Red and White hairs occur in patches but no hairs have intermediate colours of red and white.
Option C: Sex-linked inheritance: sex chromosomes are primarily concerned with the determination of sex, but these do carry the genes also for other characters. Such characters whose genes are located on the sex chromosomes are known as sex-linked characters. For example, colour blindness in humans.
Option D: pleiotropy: pleiotropy is the condition in which one gene produces many effects. In other words, a pleiotropic gene produces a major phenotypic trait and also, it influences some other phenotypic traits.

Option E: Polygenic inheritance: polygenic inheritance is the condition when many genes control the inheritance of one trait or character. Genes are called polygenes and show quantitative inheritance. For example, kernel colour of wheat and skin colour in humans.

Thus, the answer is option ‘A’ i.e, ‘incomplete dominance’

Note: In extension to growing plants for Cut flowers, seeds have been utilized to remove edible oil primarily in Russia, while leaves and flowers have been evaluated to possess anti-inflammatory properties and have been used in poultices. The green colour was also extracted from the flowers.

Snapdragons are popular garden plants that produce brightly colored flowers. When a plant that is homozygous for white flowers is crossed with a plant that is homozygous for red flowers, all offspring are pink. Snapdragons are an example of a plant that exhibits an inheritance pattern called incomplete dominance.

Each original parent was homozygous or pure for their particular allele (gene for a trait.)

The symbols RR and WW best represent the pure condition of each parent plant.

When these two parent plants are crossed the resulting offspring will all be RW

RR X WW

RW because one parent contributes a R (red) gene in their gametes and the other a W (white) gene

Since this is blended inheritance the resulting phenotyphic expression will all be pink, all F1 offspring will have the genes RW.

However, when the F1 are crossed (RW x RW) this allows a return of the red, white phenotypes along with the combination of alleles giving the phenotype Pink......

Incomplete dominance is a concept that arises when the phenotype of what would carry the dominant alleles as heterozygous do not completely show in phenotype as the dominant phenotype but instead display a phenotype that is somewhere in the middle of what the recessive phenotype would typically display and also what the dominant phenotype would display while carrying alleles for both, hence pink is displayed when one dominant allele, W for white and w for red result in a phenotype of pink.

If 2 homozygous cross:

WW white and ww red you would have:

W W.

w Ww Ww

w. Ww Ww.

The entire first generation of offspring from the parents of homozygous dominant WW and homozygous recessive would have a heterozygous genotype and display a pink color for 100% of offspring: Ww and pink in color.

Essentially the dominant and recessive phenotype or physical characteristics would be masked or go into hiding for that first F1 generation offspring with all the dragonflowers appearing pink.

When that second generation is emerged, or basically when F1 generation is crossed it will reveal. .

2 heterozygous Pink flowers with genotype:.

W w

W WW. Ww

w. Ww. ww.

So the F2 generation will have 1/4 or 25% of the flowers with the dominant white appearance and genotype alleles WW,. 2/4 or 50% of the flowers with the pink characteristics pink phenotype at Ww, and then 1/4 or 25% of the flowers with a phenotype of red recessive with alleles ww. The dominant and recessive phenotypes resurface in the F2 generation, white and red.

When a red Snap Dragon is crossed with a white snapdragon and the resulting offspring is pink that is a result of ?

So, the correct answer is 'Incomplete dominance'.

When pink snapdragons are crossed with white snapdragons what color will the offspring be a red pink and white flowers B all pink flowers c pink and white flowers?

So, the correct option is 'Pink and white in 1 : 1 ratio'.

When a red flowered Snap Dragon plant is crossed with a white flowered plant than the phenotypes of F2 is likely to be?

This is called incomplete dominance. Due to this reason, the F2 phenotypic ratio and genotypic ratios are same in a cross between red-flowered and white flowered snapdragon plants.

When a red flowered snapdragon is crossed with a white flowered plant the result is a pink flowered plant what is this an example of?

The crossing of a red flowered plant and a white flowered plant produces all the offspring with pink flowers. This cross illustrates red and white exhibit incomplete dominance. This situation occurs due to the blending of both the alleles.
