Detailed explanation-1: -Gray: 100% Cross a BLACK chicken (BB) with a WHITE chicken (WW). These alleles show INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE.
Detailed explanation-2: -In some varieties of chickens, the allele for black feathers is codominant with the allele for white feathers. A cross between a black chicken and a white chicken will result in a chicken with both black and white feathers. Multiple alleles.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the given case, alleles for black color and white color are expressed independently in the offspring, generating a black and white speckled offspring. So, this serves as an example of codominance.
Detailed explanation-4: -The allele for black feathers is B and white feathers is W. The heterogenous genotype is known as erminette. Erminette chickens will look “spotted”.
