Solution

The correct option is A Hermaphroditism
A hermaphrodite is an organism which consists both male and female sexes in the same individual.
Pleiotropy occurs when one gene influences multiple, unrelated phenotypic traits.
Incomplete dominance and codominance are different forms of inheritance.
Codominance is a form of dominance where the allele of the heterozygous pair is fully expressed.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
