Answer:

The correct answer could be B. two forms of the trait are both equally dominant.

Codominant is a type of allelic interaction in which both the alleles of a gene express themselves equally in a heterozygous condition.

For example, ABO blood group in which alleles
I^(A) and
I^(B) are codominant in nature. The person who is heterozygous for
I^(A) and
I^(B) possess the blood group AB.
