Ex. Incomplete dominance can happen in flowers such as snap dragons where a red flower plant and a white flower plant have an offspring that is neither red nor white but is a mix so in this case it would be pink. It does not support the blending theory as it does not get its color from the dominant plant in this case but from both.
