Question

Please explain step by step ear lobes hairline Figure 2 Long Chromosomes Carrying Genes for Ear Lobes. Short Chromosomes Carrying Genes fo Hairline. 2. Although homologous chromosomes share the same sequence of genes, they do not necessarily share the same alleles. The two alleles for ear lobes are: "E" information for free ear lobes and "e" information for attached ear lobes. The two alleles for hairline are: "H" information for a "widow's peak" and "h"- information for a straight hairline. The individual is heterozygous for both traits. To represent this, attach masking tape to each chromosome and label it as shown in Figure 3. Figure 3 Distribution of Alleles for Ear Lobes and Hairline 102

Explanation / Answer

Genotype of this individual will be EeHh ( As it is heterozygous so will have both the dominant and recessive allele)

Phenotype of this individual will be Free air lobes with widows pick hairline ( This is because E is dominant over small e and E represents free earlobe , H is dominant over h and H represents widows pick hairline.
