Detailed explanation-1: -In complete dominance, only one allele in the genotype is seen in the phenotype. In codominance, both alleles in the genotype are seen in the phenotype. In incomplete dominance, a mixture of the alleles in the genotype is seen in the phenotype.
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: -codominance, in genetics, phenomenon in which two alleles (different versions of the same gene) are expressed to an equal degree within an organism. As a result, traits associated with each allele are displayed simultaneously.
Detailed explanation-4: -Non-Mendelian traits are described as traits that are not generally moved forward with dominant and recessive alleles. An example of such is height and hair color.
