Is blood type codominant?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking whether blood types exhibit codominance, which refers to a genetic scenario where both alleles in a heterozygote are fully expressed, resulting in a phenotype that is neither dominant nor recessive.
Answer
Blood type is codominant.
The final answer is that blood type is codominant.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is that blood type is codominant.
More Information
