co-dominance means there are always two alleles for any
character. If the two alleles are equally dominant over one
another and neither of them exprasses to outside is called
codominance.Here neither of the character appares in
offspring.This phenomenon can be clearly explained by
taking the example of drosophila.

When both alleles of a pair are fully expressed in
heterozygote,they are called codominant.

Answer / khadija
both alleles are equally dominant,both alleles are
expressesd at the same time.

Answer / martin
Co-dominance, is when both the alleles are equally dominant
over one and other and so the characteristics of both
allele show equally. eg) A red cow mates with a White cow,
the offspring of this cow turned out to be of Co-dominace
and the cow's colour appeared to turn out a pinkish colour.
but when closely inspected the cow's fur was both red and
white but was evenly distributed on the cow.

Answer / kiara
both alleles in the heterozygous offspring are expressed in
the phenotype.

Answer / myimba
It is the combination of one dominant and one recessive
alleles. The best example is the blood type AB. The blood
type A and B are combined together resulting to this bloodtype.

In mice colored coat is dominant to albinism. Sniffles, a male mouse with a colored coat is mated to Esmeralda, an alluring albino. The resulting litter of six young all had colored fur. The next time around Esmeralda was mated with Whiskers, who was the same color as Sniffles; some of this litter were white. a)What are the probable genotypes of Sniffles, Esmeralda, and Whiskers? b) If a male of the 1st litterwas mated to a colored female of the 2nd litter, what phenotypic ratio might be expected among the offspring? c)What would be the expected results if a male of the 1st litter was mated to an albino from the 2nd?

The village of Oblong has 400 normally-shaped residents. Transferrin is an iron carrier found in blood, and electrophoretic variation of this protein is determined by an autosomal codominant system. The citizens of Oblong were typed for their transferrin complements. The distribution of transferrin phenotypes was: 100 CC, 100 CD, and 200 DD. What is the frequency of the C allele?

People who can roll their tongues contain a dominant allele for tongue rolling. If people do not contain the tongue rolling gene, then they cannot roll their tongue no matter how hard they try. Consider the following situation: If a homozygous dominant tongue roller mates with a homozygous recessive non-tongue roller, then what is the probability of the offspring inheriting the tongue rolling gene?
