Resistance to sudden death is a dominant trait in soybeans. Two parent plants that are resistant to sudden death produce a progeny that is not resistant, but this progeny can pass the trait to its progeny in the next generation. This unusual pattern can be explained by?
1. Overdominance
2. Incomplete penetrance
3. Incomplete dominance
4. Variable expressivity

If two persons with' AB' blood group marry and have the sufficiently large number of children, these children could be classified as 'A' blood group: 'AB' blood group: 'B' blood group in 1: 2: 1 ratio. The modern technique of protein electrophoresis reveals the presence of both' A' and 'B' type proteins in 'AB' blood group individuals. This is an example of:
1. Incomplete dominance
2. Partial dominance
3. Complete dominance
4. Codominance
