Answer:

1 or A

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't trust me but that's what i think because dominance is the phenomenon of one variant of a gene on a chromosome masking or overriding the effect of a different variant of the same gene on the other copy of the chromosome. The first variant is termed dominant and the second recessive.
