Codominance occurs when Select one: A. both of the alleles in a heterozygote are equally expressed phenotypically in an individual. B. offspring exhibit several different phenotypic expressions of a single trait. C. expression of two different alleles alternates from one generation to the next. D. a heterozygote expresses an intermediate phenotype.

In certain species of flies, eye color is controlled by sim-·ple dominance by a single pair of alleles. A red-eyed fly was crossed with a white-eyed fly, both of whose parents had white eyes. All of their offspring (both female and male) had red eyes.a. Which is dominant, the allele for red eyesor the allele for white eyes?b. What is the genotype of the white-eyed parents?c. If the white-eyed parent was mated with one of the red-eyed offspring, what phenotypic ratio wouldyou expect regarding eye color?
Please follow instructions from pic above Red roan hair colour in some horses is due to codominance of the white allele and the red allele. If a red roan horse mates with a white horse, indicate the genotypic and phenotypic ratios that would result.
