How do you xxplain how the hitchhicker's thumb trait is determined using the following words allele domnate recessive homozygous heterozygous?

basically, the hitchhiker's thumb is a physical characteristic that is inherited from your mother and/or father. when you were conceived, your mother gave you some of her genes, and your father gave you some of his. the hitchhiker's thumb is either a dominent or recessive trait. It if is dominant, you could have a heterozygous parent and still have a 100% chance of inheriting it. If the hitchhiker's thumb is recessive, you must have both of you parents homozygous for the gene to have a 100% chance of inheriting it. The alleles are either HH (homozygous dominant), Hh (heterozygous), or hh (homozygous recessive). H H << if the thumb is dominant trait, you have a 100% chance of getting it H HH HH << if the thumb is recessive trait, you have a 0% chance of getting it h Hh Hh
