Question
This type of inheritance pattern is called:
Incomplete dominance
Co-dominance
Complete dominance
None of the above
Incomplete dominance
Co-dominance
Complete dominance
None of the above
Hint:
The phenotype of both the parents are expressed in the offspring.
The correct answer is: Co-dominance
- Co-dominance is observed in the given question
- The parents have brown and white skin coat
- The offspring have a mixture of white and brown coat
- Here, neither of the two alleles are dominant or recessive. Hence, the suppression of expression of the alleles does not occur.

Which of the following is NOT an example of intra-genic gene interactions?
- Example of epistasis is fur color. The fur color of an animal depends on two genes (E and B). B gene is responsible for color while E gene determines the level of expression of the B gene.

In case of co-dominance:
- A, B and O are alleles responsible for blood groups.
- Neither of the allele is completely dominant over other.
