Correct answer: Law of Co-dominance

Co-dominance is a genetic scenario, in which neither of the alleles is dominant or recessive and both of the allele get expressed equally called as co-dominance. Example: ABO blood group.

The person blood type can be A, B, O or AB. It refers to the type of protein present in the blood.

If a person has type A or type B blood group, it means they have dominant A or B allele present in the blood. If a person has Type O blood group, it means neither type A or Type B allele is dominant. However, if a person has type AB blood group, it means both the type A and Type B allele is equally expressed and are said to be co-dominant.
