Which of the following are examples of codominance?
I. A person with blood type AB
II. A flower that displays a red and white spotted phenotype (both colors are attributed to the same gene; homozygosity for either color makes a flower that is completely red or white)
III. A flower that displays a pink phenotype (a homozygous dominant flower is red and a homozygous recessive flower is white)
IV. An organism whose heterozygous phenotype is identical to the homozygous dominant phenotype
