It is called CODOMINANCE if the alleles each express when the phenotype is heterozygous.
Let's look at the following situation. There are snapdragon flowers that are homozygous (having 2 of the same allele) for red. Let's call them R. There are also snapdragon flowers that are homozygous for white. Let's call them r. If you take one of the RR flowers and breed it with a rr flower, you will get Rr.
If one of the alleles is dominant, then the flower will be the color of the dominant allele. If R (red) is the dominant allele, then all of the offspring will be red; if r (white) is the dominant allele, then they will be white. However, if they are codominant, then if the genotype is heterozygous (Rr), then the alleles will both express- in this case, the offspring would be pink.

What is it when an allele is neither dominant nor recessive?
this is called codominance when alleles are neither dominant or recessive.
If the alleles are neither dominant or recessive what happens?
If neither are Dominant Or Recessive then its called co dominance or spuedo - dominance
Alleles are neither dominant nor recessive?
codominance
How is it possible to have neither allele dominant?
You have two recessive alleles
Why some chromosomes are recessive and the others are domainent?
Actually a chromosome consists of many genes/alleles and is neither recessive or dominant in and of itself.
When neither gene in a genotype pair is dominant and neither gene is recessive the genes are said to be .?
Incomplete dominant alleles.
What is it called when the alleles are neither dominant nor recessive?
Incomplete Dominance.
What can be dominant or recessive?
Alleles can be dominant or recessive
When neither allele is dominant what are they expressed as?
Both of the alleles must be recessive. The trait expressed is a recessive trait.
What controls the traits of alleles that are neither dominant nor recessive?
this is called codominance
What do you call a condition in which neither two alleles of a gene is dominant or recessive?
Codominace
What is codominance?
It's like incomplete dominance, but instead of one allele not being completely dominant for a trait, both alleles for that specific trait are dominant.A condition in which neither of two alleles of a gene is dominant nor recessive
