The dominant allele overpowers a recessive allele, therefore when the two are combined (heterozygous) the phenotype of the organism becomes whatever the dominant allele represents.
The building blocks of our genes (that make us what we are) are called alleles and these can be either dominant, recessive or codominant - which means they are equally dominant. Now for your sentence: "A typical example of codominance can be found in blood types, where the existence of A as well as B alleles in a person will lead to blood type AB".
False. Blood type genes have two dominant alleles (A and B), and one recessive (O). When a person gets one A allele and one B allele, they then have the blood type AB. Both are expressed equally. In other genes, a dominant allele might not be completely dominant, allowing the recessive allele to be partially expressed.

Some traits are dominant and others are receptive. The gene for blue eyes is recessive and the gene for brown eyes is dominant.

A litter of puppies will often fight amongst themselves to determine which one is the most dominant.

False. Blood type genes have two dominant alleles (A and B), and one recessive (O). When a person gets one A allele and one B allele, they then have the blood type AB. Both are expressed equally. In other genes, a dominant allele might not be completely dominant, allowing the recessive allele to be partially expressed.

The dominant trait for eye color in humans is brown, which means that if one parent has brown eyes and the other has blue eyes, the child is more likely to inherit brown eyes due to the dominant trait.
