ALSO, what is the opposite of the word "crossing-over" ------> is it "nondisjunction"?

isn't it polygenic dominance?
because all the other things have to do with only two allels but polygenic dominance can deal with more that two.

also, the word opposite crossing-over is LINKAGE.

this is a tough one and i'm going to disagree with the other answers on this one. i would say dominace is the one that doesn't belong. this is why:
dominance is one trait which is expressed phenotpically
codominance and incomplete dominance are alike in that it means that one doesn't over-ride the other, they are both expressed phenotypically
polygenic interheritance is like a blending of the traits, which is also like codominace and incomplete dominance,

polygenic inheritance. don't really know why, but look at all four answers. they all have dominance in the word exept the last one. that would be my answer.
