If the image that is supposed to be attached to this question is a picture of a flower showing both red and white spots as it colors, then the inheritance pattern shown is different from the other inheritance pattern because the normal inheritance pattern would only show one color. Normally, a flower would have a uniform color. In this case, only white or only red. The flower shows what we call, co-dominance. Red and white colors are both traits of the flower and the colors both manifest. In other traits, only the dominant trait is exhibited.

Inheritance is defined as the traits obtained from the parents to the offspring. The genes codes for traits, which are expressed in the offspring.

The given picture shows the co-dominance in the flower. The red and white color in the image is the expression of both the dominant genes.

The flowers exhibit two distinct colors phenotypically. In co-dominance, the genes coding for both traits is expressed. In the flower the red and white colors are both expressed, resulting in the co-dominance of the genes.

Generally, during the inheritance pattern, the set of genes inherited from the parent are expressed by the dominant gene only. Recessive genes are masked by dominant genes.

Therefore, the inheritance pattern in the flower shows co-dominance, which is usually different from the normal inheritance pattern.
