Which of the following conditions represents a case of co-dominant genes?
A gene expresses itself, suppressing the phenotypic effect of its alleles
Genes that are similar in phenotypic effect when present separately, but when together interact to produce a different trait
Alleles, both of which interact to produce a trait, which may or may not resemble either of the parental types
Alleles, each of which produces an independent effect in a heterozygous condition
