Detailed explanation-1: -Codominance is also seen in plants. For example, rhododendrons with simultaneous expression of red and white genes for flower colour display flowers with both red and white petals.
Detailed explanation-2: -Codominance. In people, one codominant trait that you can’t really observe by looking at a person, but many people know about themselves, is blood type. People with the AB blood type have one A allele and one B allele. Because both alleles are expressed at the same time, their blood type is AB.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Correct answer: A dog that has fur that consists of colors of both parents will be an example of codominance. Only one trait can be expressed at a time, since they are both dominant phenotypes. This results in regions of one dominant allele and regions of the other, showing a spotted or mottled pattern.
