In humans the alleles for unattached earlobes is dominant over the allele for a

    • When are traits due to dominant alleles always observed?

      The traits due to dominant alleles are always observed, even when a recessive allele is present. Traits due to recessive alleles are only observed when two recessive alleles are present. For example, the allele for widow’s peak is dominant and the allele for straight hairline is recessive.


    • Is the size of the earlobes an inherited trait?

      Some scientists have reported that this trait is due to a single gene for which unattached earlobes is dominant and attached earlobes is recessive. Other scientists have reported that this trait is probably due to several genes. The size and appearance of the lobes are also inherited traits.


    • How many widow's peak alleles are there in the population?

      • One widow’s peak allele (dominant) and one straight hairline allele (recessive), they will have a widow’s peak • Two straight hairline alleles (recessive), their hairline will be straight. A widespread misconception is that traits due to dominant alleles are the most common in the population.


    • Can a person inherit two identical alleles from their parents?

      An individual may inherit two identical or two different alleles from their parents. When two different alleles are present they interact in specific ways. For the traits included in this activity, the alleles interact in what is called a dominant or a recessive manner.

      5. In humans, free earlobes (F) is dominant over attached earlobes (f). If one parent is homozygous dominant for free earlobes, while the other has attached earlobes, can they produce any children with attached earlobes? No, the homozygous parent will give a dominant allele to each child keeping it from expressing the attached earlobe trait. 6.

For example, the allele for widow’s peak is dominant and the allele for straight hairline is recessive. If an individual inherits: • Two widow’s peak alleles (both dominant), their hairline will have a peak

      In humans, "unattached" earlobes are dominant over "attached" earlobes. "Widows peak" hairline is dominant over "non-widows peak" hairline. Use E and e for the earlobe phenotype alleles, and W and w for the hairline phenotype alleles. 8) A female and a male, both with unattached earlobes, have a child with attached earlobes. What is
