Incomplete dominance is a mix of the traits and co-dominance is when you see both traits.

They are both a mix of traits.

All of the above are true.

Detailed explanation-1: -Codominance and Incomplete dominance are two types of genetic inheritance. Codominance essentially means that no allele can block or mask the expression of the other allele. On the other hand, incomplete dominance is a condition in which a dominant allele does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dominance is the situation in which dominant allele is fully expressed while suppressing the recessive allelic effect on the phenotype. Codominance is the situation in which both alleles work independently and express their effects in the phenotype without mixing the effects.
Detailed explanation-3: -Incomplete dominance results from a cross in which each parental contribution is genetically unique and gives rise to progeny whose phenotype is intermediate. Incomplete dominance is also referred to as semi-dominance and partial dominance.
