When one allele for a specific trait does not completely dominate over the other allele, and therefore the phenotype produced is the complete mixture of both dominant and recessive allele is known as Incomplete Dominance. While in Co-Dominance both the allele for a specific trait are equally expressed. The resultant phenotype will express both the character equally of both … [Read more...] about Difference Between Incomplete Dominance and Co-Dominance

The fatty acids are of two prime types: saturated and unsaturated. A healthy body requires both of them for the optimal functioning of the body.
