In **co-dominance** (e.g. coat colour in cattle), the F₁ of a red × white cross is:
ARed
BWhite
CRoan (red AND white hair together)
DPink
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Roan (red AND white hair together)
**Co-dominance:** both alleles are expressed equally.
RR × WW gives F₁ RW = **roan** — coat has a mixture of red and white hairs (not blended pink).
F₂ ratio is 1 red : 2 roan : 1 white.
ABO blood groups (IA, IB co-dominant) are another classic example.
