The ability to fold the tongue is not necessarily a dominant genetic trait. It is largely determined by the specific combination of genes inherited from both parents, known as a polygenic trait. Some people may have inherited a combination of genes that makes tongue folding easier for them, while others may not have this trait even if their parents do.
Yes, the ability to roll or fold your tongue is a genetic trait. It is determined by the presence of a dominant gene, and those who inherit this gene from one or both parents can typically perform the tongue-folding action.
Folding the right arm over the left is recessive while folding the left arm over the right is dominant
The ability to fold your tongue is controlled by a dominant gene. If at least one parent can fold their tongue, their child is likely to also be able to do it.
A hinged tongue is commonly referred to as a retractable or folding tongue. This type of tongue can be folded or retracted to save space or for convenience when not in use, typically found on trailers or towing equipment.
no it is recessiveFamily studies clearly demonstrate that tongue rolling is not a simple genetic character, and twin studies demonstrate that it is influenced by both genetics and the environment. Despite this, tongue rolling is probably the most commonly used classroom example of a simple genetic trait in humans. Sturtevant (1965) said he was "embarrassed to see it listed in some current works as an established Mendelian case." You should not use tongue rolling to demonstrate basic genetics.No. Your mom is.

Being able to roll your tongue is dominant, not being able to is recessive. Therefore, if you can roll your tongue, you have either a homozygous dominant gene for being able to roll your tongue, or a heterozygous gene. If you cannot, then you have a homozygous recessive gene.
It depends on what your trait is. Let's say that your trait was tongue roller. Rolling your tongue is dominant over non-tongue rollers so we would use R for Rolling your tongue. For the recessive trait, non-tongue roller, we use the same letter as the dominant trait except it is lowercase. So non-tongue roller would be r.

The ability to roll the tongue is determined by a dominant gene (T) and a recessive gene (t). A man who can roll his tongue would have the genotype Tt or TT, with the phenotype of being able to roll his tongue.
Being able to roll your tongue is a genetic trait controlled by a single gene with two alleles. If you can roll your tongue, you are likely to have inherited the dominant allele for tongue rolling. If you cannot roll your tongue, you likely have inherited the recessive allele.
