Solution

The correct option is B Codominance

The blood groups of parents is AB and their genotypes is I^AI^B. The blood groups and genotypes of the children are A(I^A I^A), B(I^B I^B), and AB (I^A I^B). It is called codominance. The phenotypic and genotypic ratio is 1:2:1.
So, the correct option is ‘Codominance’.
