Detailed explanation-1: -In codominance, both alleles are expressed together in the offspring. If we cross a red flower and white flower that have a codominance inheritance pattern, the offspring would be flowers with red and white patches on them.
Detailed explanation-2: -The F1-hybrid plants have a different phenotype (pink flowers) than either of the true-breeding parents. This is an example of incomplete dominance.
Detailed explanation-3: -incomplete dominance. All of the offspring of a red carnation crossed with a white carnation are pink. The simplest explanation for this pattern of inheritance is: The genes for hair color and skin pigmentation are linked.
Detailed explanation-4: -Examples of codominance in animals include speckled chickens, which have alleles for both black and white feathers, and roan cattle, which express alleles for both red hair and white hair.
