Question

A horse's coat has one black phenotype and one white phenotype for their coat. If the horse has large black and white spots, what kind of inheritance is this?

(1 point)

Incomplete dominance

Co-dominant

Dominant

Recessive

Answer 1

The inheritance described in your question, where a horse has large black and white spots, is indicative of **co-dominance**. In co-dominance, both phenotypes are fully expressed in the offspring, which leads to a mixture of traits, such as the combination of black and white colors seen in the spots.
