What happens when IA and IB are present together?
Options
- AOnly IA expresses
- BOnly IB expresses
- CNeither expresses
- DBoth express their own types of sugars
Correct answer
D. Both express their own types of sugars
Step-by-step solution
in the case of co-dominance the F1 generation resembles both parents. A good example is different types of red blood cells that determine ABO blood grouping in human beings. ABO blood groups are controlled by the gene I. The plasma membrane of the red blood cells has sugar polymers that protrude from its surface and the kind of sugar is controlled by the gene. The gene (I) has three alleles I A , I B and i. The alleles I A and I B produce a slightly different form of the sugar while allele i does not produce any su
