1. A scientist observes that a certain trait is determined by a single allele. An organism inherited one version of the trait from one parent and another version from the other parent. Both versions of the trait are expressed in the phenotype of the offspring. Which pattern of inheritance best classifies the observed trait?

A. dominanceb. sex-linkagec. co-dominance d. incomplete dominance

Page 2: 1. A scientist observes that a certain trait is determined by a single allele. An organism inherited one version of the trait from one parent and another

c. Co-dominance
