A) Sex-linked inheritance
B) Polygenic inheritance
C) Dominant-recessive inheritance
D) Multiple-allele inheritance
E) Incomplete dominance

14) The dominant gene is expressed when present; the recessive gene is expressed only in the absence of the dominant gene.
15) The heterozygote has a phenotype intermediate between those of the homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive.
16) Inheritance of the ABO blood group type is an example of this type of inheritance.
17) Inheritance that results in continuous or qualitative phenotypic variations between two extremes; an example is skin color.
