dominant and recessive genes

Detailed explanation-1: -Human blood type is determined by codominant alleles. There are three different alleles, known as IA, IB, and i. The IA and IB alleles are codominant, and the i allele is recessive. The possible human phenotypes for blood group are type A, type B, type AB, and type O.
Detailed explanation-2: -Codominance occurs when both alleles show dominance, as in the case of the AB blood type (IA IB) in humans.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -One parent with A and another with B can produce a child with A, B, AB or O blood types. If one parent has A and another has AB, they can either produce a child with A, B or AB blood types.
