Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: Codominance is evidenced when the phenotypes of both parents show up in the offspring. 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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Definition. Codominance occurs when two different versions – a.k.a. “alleles” – of the same gene are present in a living thing, and both alleles are expressed separately in different parts of an organism. Instead of one trait being dominant over the other, both traits appear.

Detailed explanation-3: -In COdominance, the “recessive” & “dominant” traits appear together in the phenotype of hybrid organisms. With codominance, a cross between organisms with two different phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype in which both of the parental traits appear together.

Detailed explanation-4: -Codominant traits are traits that are expressed by codominant genes. A codominant trait is expressed when both alleles for a gene are expressed equally, and thus both protein products are made. The proteins made by genes during gene expression are what creates the observable phenotype of an organism.

Detailed explanation-5: -Codominance: It is a type of dominance where the offspring show similarity to both the parents and it is due to the blending of alleles. When both the parental characters are exhibited by the F1 generation, this is called codominance. The offspring is going to be a combination of both the parent.
