What are vestigial organs?
A vestigial trait (i.e. organ, appendage, etc) is a remnant part of an organism that historically was very important but evolutionarily is no longer needed. For example, the tailbone on humans is considered vestigial because it serves little to no purpose, although at one point it most likely connected to a tail. Another example is the dew claw on a dog (the small, dangling claw on a dog's front paws). Clearly there's no use for it today, but at one point it may have served an important purpose for survival. appendix wisdom teeth tailbone male nipples xD body hair thymus gland the "tip" of your ear ear muscles

What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
