What is expressed when both alleles for a gene are equally expressed as in human blood type
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/15
This is called co-dominance. This is when 2 or more alleles are expressed at the same time. In other words they both affect the phenotype. In the example of human blood ABO type we have an allele for A = IA, B= Ib O=i
IAIb = AB blood type
IbIb = B blood type
Iai = A
IaIa = A bloody type
Ibi = B blood type
ii = O blood type

Definition1/15
Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is a disorder associated with an
error in the number of chromosomes present. Other examples of
disorders associated with an error in the number of chromosomes are
Trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome), Trisomy 13 (Patau Syndrome), Triple
X syndrome, and Klinefelter Syndrome.
