Answer:
It can be explained by incomplete dominance.
Explanation:
Incomplete dominance is a type of non-Mendelian inheritance. When the phenotype of heterozygous is intermediate between the two homozygote phenotypes (according to Mendelian inheritance, heterozygous has the same phenotype as dominant homozygous).
In the example above, heterozygous genotype has pink phenotype which is between red (dominant homozygous) and white (recessive homozygous) phenotype.
