Human genetics 1 In humans, widow's peak (W) is generally dominant to a straight hairline (w), and having a chin dimple is generally dominant (D) to not having a chin dimple (d). A man who is heterozygous for both widow's peak and chin dimples marries a woman who is also heterozygous for both traits. What is the phenotype of the woman? Group of answer choices 1. wwdd 2. WwDd 3. straight hairline and no chin dimple 4. widow's peak and chin dimple

The recessive sex-linked gene (h) prolongs the blood-clotting time, resulting in the genetically inherited disease called hemophilia.

5A. In shorthorn cattle, the polled condition is dominant over horned. Also, the heterozygous condition (RW) of red coat (R) and white coat (W) is roan, an example of codominance.
