Answer:

The correct option is B) 1/4

Explanation:

Co-dominance can be described as a phenomenon which arises when the dominant trait is not fully dominant over the recessive trait. As a result, both the dominant and the recessive trait are shown in the organism.

To depict the results between two roan cows, lets make a punnet square:

       R        W

R   RR       RW

W   RW     WW

The results form the punnet square show that there is a 25% or 1/4 chance for the offspring produced to be a white cow.
