Question

A calico cat exhibits both the characters for orange fur and black fur. What kind of expression is this?

  1. Incomplete dominance

  2. Co-dominance

  3. Complete dominance

  4. Compete dominance

hintHint:

Co-dominance is expressed by calico cat.

The correct answer is:

Co-dominance


    • When the alleles of a gene do not follow the law of dominance, the case of codominance occurs.
    • In the case of a calico cat both the alleles for black and orange fur express themselves without any blending.
    • Other examples of codominance is the ABO blood grouping system.
