Codominance

Both _______ contribute to the phenotype of the organism by showing up simultaneously (at the same time) in heterozygous

individuals. In cattle and horses, if you

Multiple Alleles

In this pattern of inheritance, the genes have more than _____ alleles controlling them and are therefore said to have multiple alleles. No individual has more than _____ alleles, but there are more than _____ possible alleles in a population, so a ______ will be expressed in more than two forms.
