Oh, isn't that a happy little question! The probability of producing a gamete with the allele for attached earlobes depends on the individual's genetic makeup. If the individual is heterozygous for the trait (Aa), the probability would be 50%. If they are homozygous dominant (AA), the probability would be 0%, and if they are homozygous recessive (aa), the probability would be 100%. Just like painting, genetics can be a beautiful and fascinating landscape to explore.
If both you and your sibling have attached earlobes (aa genotype) and your parents have unattached earlobes, then your parents must both be carriers of the recessive allele for attached earlobes (Aa genotype).
If two parents with free earlobes have a child with attached earlobes, both parents must have the genotype of heterozygous (Ee) for earlobe shape. Free earlobes (E) is dominant over attached earlobes (e), so the presence of attached earlobes in their child indicates that both parents are carriers of the recessive allele for attached earlobes.
He has at least one E allele is correct. I take the quiz
It was said earlier that, "Unattached earlobes are the dominant trait, twice as many people have unattached earlobes compared to attached." There is not actually any real proof that unattached earlobes are dominant. While more people may have unattached earlobes, attached earlobes are dominant. This was proved in a pedigree which covered three generations of extended families.
a male with one recessive allele
50%
He has a homozygous genotype
there one alle for free ear-lobes and another allele for attached if your gene for ear-lobes is made up of two alleles for free ear-lobes your ear-lobes are NOT attached and if you have two attache-ear-lobes alleles your ear-lobes are attached
If your friend has attached earlobes (recessive trait), then your friend must have two copies of the recessive allele for attached earlobes (aa). This means that both of your friend's parents must be carriers of the recessive allele (Aa) in order to pass it on. Your friend's mother and father would both have one dominant allele (A) for free-hanging earlobes and one recessive allele (a) for attached earlobes.
yes!
If a boy is born with attached earlobes, he must have inherited two recessive alleles (ee), one from each parent. This means that both parents must either be carriers of the recessive allele (Ee) or express the attached earlobe phenotype themselves (ee). Therefore, at least one of the parents must have the recessive allele for attached earlobes.
If both you and your sibling have attached earlobes (aa genotype) and your parents have unattached earlobes, then your parents must both be carriers of the recessive allele for attached earlobes (Aa genotype).
If both parents are heterozygous for attached earlobes (genotype Ee, where E is the dominant allele for free earlobes and e is the recessive allele for attached earlobes), the possible genotypes for their child can be determined using a Punnett square. The possible combinations are EE, Ee, Ee, and ee. This means there is a 25% chance (1 out of 4) that the student will inherit the genotype ee, resulting in attached earlobes. Thus, there is a 25% likelihood that the student has attached earlobes.
If two parents with free earlobes have a child with attached earlobes, both parents must have the genotype of heterozygous (Ee) for earlobe shape. Free earlobes (E) is dominant over attached earlobes (e), so the presence of attached earlobes in their child indicates that both parents are carriers of the recessive allele for attached earlobes.
