Answer

Codominance

Explanation

When both alleles of a gene are equally expressive, it is called (a) Codominance. In codominance, both alleles contribute to the phenotype in a distinct and distinguishable way. This is in contrast to dominance, where one allele masks the expression of the other, and recessiveness, where one allele is completely masked in the presence of the dominant allele.
