Definition of Co-Dominance:
In Non-Mendelian Genetics, Co-Dominance results in.....
both phenotypes (traits) of the parents being present in the offspring.
a mixture of the parent phenotypes (traits) shown in the offspring.
the dominate trait showing up in the offspring.

Co-Dominance Question 1:
In shorthorn cattle, when a red bull (RR) is crossed with a white cow (WW), all the offspring are roan (RW).
What would be the phenotype characteristics of the roan bull?
The roan offspring will show both parent characteristics, so it will be both red and white in color.
The roan offspring will be all red.
The roan offspring will be all white.
The roan offspring will be pink, a mixture of red and white.

What phenotypic and genotypic ratios would you get?
Genotypic Ratio- 1 RR: 2 RW: 1 WW
Phenotypic Ratio- 1 Red: 2 Roan: 1 White
Genotypic Ratio- 3 RR: 1 RW: 1 WW
Phenotypic Ratio- 1 Red: 3 Roan: 0 White
Genotypic Ratio- 1 RR: 3 RW: 0 WW
Phenotypic Ratio- 1 Red: 3 Roan: 0 White
Genotypic Ratio- 1 RR: 2 RW: 0 WW

What phenotypes would you expect from a cross between a red bull and a white cow?
The phenotypes of the offspring will be 100% roan.
The phenotypes of the offspring will all 25% white and 75% roan.
The phenotypes of the offspring will be 75% roan and 25% white.
The phenotypes of the offspring will be 25% white, 25% red, and 50% roan.

Co-Dominance Question #4
In some chickens, the gene for feather color is controlled by co-dominance. The genotype for black is BB and the genotype for white is WW. The heterozygous phenotype is known as erminette (BW).
What would be the phenotype characteristics of the erminette chicken?
The phenotype characteristics of an erminette chicken will be that it has both black and white feathers.
The phenotype characteristics of an erminette chicken will be that it has only black feathers.
The phenotype characteristics of an erminette chicken will be that it has only white feathers.
The phenotype characteristics of an erminette chicken will be that is will be gray, a mixture of both parent traits.
