Why do recessive trail are more common in some cases?

They're not necessarily, but they can be. When a recessive trait is more common, it likely because it was advantageous to have that trait so the species evolved to have more of it in the gene pool. Also, since dominant traits are expressed over recessive traits, natural selection has more of an effect on them.


Do fraternal twins write with the same hands?

Fraternal twins do not necessarily write with the same hand. Hand preference is influenced by genetics and environmental factors, so it is possible for fraternal twins to have different dominant hands.


What are differences between adult and baby hands?

Adult hands are typically larger in size compared to baby hands. Adult hands have well-defined joints and stronger muscles, while baby hands are more delicate and have soft, pliable bones. In addition, adult hands have more developed fine motor skills and dexterity than baby hands.


What is the measurements for a small medium and large pony?

There is no real distinction between a small, medium and large pony. A pony is any horse that is under 14.2 hands tall. There is a distinction between small, medium and large ponies in the horse world. A small pony can not exceed 12.2 hands. A medium pony range in height from 12.2 to 13.2 hands. The large pony must be over 13.2 hands, but not more than 14.2hands.


Why do your hands feel warm when exhaled air is breathed on them?

When you exhale, the warm air from your lungs transfers heat to your hands, causing them to feel warm. This sensation occurs due to the body's natural heat transfer process and the difference in temperature between the exhaled air and your hands.

Is Hand Clasping a dominant or recessive trait?

Are dominant traits more likely to be inheritd then recessive traits?

Yes. When looking at Gregor Mendel's laws of inheritance, the Dominant allele will always be inherited by the offspring, as it is more potent than the 'weaker' recessive allele (unless the recessive allele is present in both parents; this can be in the form of Aa or aa, but it must be present in both for the recessive allele to be present in the offspring). There are other cases, though, such as co-dominance, in which recessive alleles are more likely to be present in the offspring, but speaking in general terms, it is the Dominant (ex. AA / Aa) alleles that show up more commonly in offspring than the recessive (ex. aa) alleles.

Does having a dominant allele mean that it will be found in greater frequency in the population?

No. For example, the six-finger allele is dominant over the five-finger allele in humans, yet you see almost nobody with six fingers, because it has such a low frequency. It all depends on the allele frequency in a given population.


What are the similarities between mammals and primates?

Primates are not 'similar' to mammals, they ARE mammals.


What the name of a person who can use both hands?

A person who can use both hands with equal skill is called ambidextrous. This ability allows them to perform tasks equally well with either hand, which is relatively rare. Most people have a dominant hand, but ambidextrous individuals can switch between hands seamlessly.

Interlocking Fingers Fold the hands together without thinking about it If the left thumb is crossed over the right the designation is C If the right thumb is crossed over the left the person is?

I'm guessing this is genetics question. If you cross your right thumb on to of the left, then you are homozygous recessive for this trait, i.e. both of your thumb crossing genes are of the recessive type. An uppercase C is used to designate a dominant gene and lowercase c for a recessive. Thus, both CC and Cc individuals still fold their left thumbs over the right, only cc individuals fold right over left.
