What will a heterozygote show when two alleles are codominant?
A heterozygote will show both phenotypes. For example, a tortoiseshell colored cat is heterozygous for black and orange coat color and it has both black and orange hairs in its coat. Refer to the following link for an illustration: http://www.great-pictures-of-cats.com/tortoiseshell-cats.html
What is Co-dominant Alleles?
Two diffrent alleles at a locus, are responsible for diffrent phenotypes and both affects the phenotype
What is a pair of nonidentical alleles affecting two phenotypes for a given trait are both expressed at same time in heterozygotes?
Co-dominance.
When both alleles can be observed in a phenotype the interaction is called?
When both alleles contribute to the phenotype of a heterozygous the alleles are said to show the dominate alleles and sometimes the recessive but mostly the dominate alleles
What is the difference between a herezygous and a homozygous?
"Heterozygous" and "homozygous" are terms that refer to alleles, which, in genetics determine what trait, from which parent, will appear in the offspring. Alleles can be either Dominant or Recessive. Every organism has two alleles, which can both be dominant, both recessive, or one of each.So,If an organism heterozygous, it has one recessive and one dominant allele.If an organism is homozygous then both of its alleles are the same; you need to specify if they are homozygous recessive (both alleles are recessive) or homozygous dominant (both alleles are dominant).

What is Co-dominant Alleles?
Two diffrent alleles at a locus, are responsible for diffrent phenotypes and both affects the phenotype
How are codominant alleles and incompletely dominant similar?
Codominance and incomplete dominance can only exist if the genotype has heterozygous alleles.
The outward expression of a gene?
The outward expression of a gene is determined by the alleles. Alleles come and pairs, and the pairings can be heterozygous or homozygous. For homozygous (both alleles are the same) phenotypes, the trait you see is the same as the alleles. For example, if both alleles are for a white flower, the flower will be white. There are different outcomes for heterozygous (one dominant allele, the other recessive) phenotypes. In complete dominance (the most common), the dominant allele is the the trait you see. For example, the flower has an allele for red (dominant) and white (recessive), it will be red because red is dominant to white. In incomplete dominance, the dominant allele is not strong enough to fully cut out the recessive so trait will be a mix of both. In the flower's case, it would be pink because white will be seen through the red. In codominance, both alleles are expressed just on different areas. The flower would have both red and white splotches.
What is a pair of nonidentical alleles affecting two phenotypes for a given trait are both expressed at same time in heterozygotes?
Co-dominance.
How do you find possible phenotypes in offspring?
The possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring can be determined using a Punnett square, a grid that shows the possible combinations of alleles that can result at fertilisation. The Punnett square below shows the expected genotypes of the offspring of parent pea plants that both have the genotype Rr.
How is incomplete dominance expressed in phenotype?
In complete dominance, only one allele in the genotype is seen in the phenotype. In codominance, both alleles in the genotype are seen in the phenotype. In incomplete dominance, a mixture of the alleles in the genotype is seen in the phenotype.
Is it possible for 2 alleles to produce four phenotypes?
Yes which ever of the two alleles is dominant, then the phenotype will take the one of the dominant. they can be codominant, so in that case, you might be able to produce 4 phenotypes. it depends if the two alleles create 4
Pattern of inheritance in which both alleles contribute to the phenotype of the organism?
The pattern of inheritance in which both alleles contribute to the phenotype of the organism is codominance. For example white and red hair color in cattle. Black and white feather color in certain chickens.
When both alleles can be observed in a phenotype the interaction is called?
When both alleles contribute to the phenotype of a heterozygous the alleles are said to show the dominate alleles and sometimes the recessive but mostly the dominate alleles
What is expressed when neither copy of alleles completely masks expressions of the other but instead a blending of alleles seen?
When neither copy of an allele is completely expressed or completely masked, it is called Incomplete Dominance. When incomplete dominance is present, then the offspring will have a blend of both parental phenotypes but will always be a slight bit slower to one parent than the other.
What are both inherited alleles called?
Genetic makeup formed from both inherited alleles together is called a genotype. Homozygous alleles would be a pair of identical alleles for a single trait. Heterozygous is different alleles for a single trait.
