Answer 2

The blending of colors among the bougainvillea flowers (bumbel) is an example of (c) Incomplete Dominance pattern of non mendelian inheritance.

Explanation:

• A form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele.
• A lack of dominance in either of two different alleles in heterozygotes, so that the phenotype is intermediate between that of homozygotes for either of the two alleles.
• Incomplete dominance is also called partial dominance or semidominance. In incomplete dominance both the alleles in heterozygous condition partially express themselves.
• Here the dominant allele can not completely mask the effect of recessive alleles.
• Incomplete dominance is a type of inheritance in which one allele is not completely expressed over its paired allele for a specific trait or character.
• The symbolic meaning of bougainvillea changes from one area of the globe to another but the majority claims it stands for a sign of welcoming visitors and beauty.
• In other cultures the plant is considered a symbol of peace and an encourager of free trade between two entities.
• The bright showy blooms on bougainvillea plants are called bracts.
