The correct answer is:

b. codominance

Step-by-step explanation:

Codominance is a kind of dominance wherein the alleles of a gene set in a heterozygote are fully represented. This results in offspring with a phenotype that is not dominant nor recessive. A typical example telling codominance is the ABO blood group system.
