A. Tongue Rolling
The ability to "roll" the tongue is dominant (R) while non-rolling is recessive
(r)
В.
PTC Taster (DO NOT COMPLETE)
The ability to taste is dominant (T) while inability to taste is recessive (t)
C. Hand Clasping - Clasp your hands together quickly so that your fingers interlock
Crossing the left thumb over the right is dominant (B), the reverse is recessive (b)
D. Bent or "Hitchhikers" Thumb
A straight thumb is dominant (H), while the ability
to bend the last joint backward at an angle of 60° or
more is recessive (h)
E. Bent Little Finger - Place the palms of your hand side by side with the
palms facing up
straight
Dominant condition exists when the last joints of the little
finger
bend away from each other (B), the recessive condition is when there are
straight fingers (b)|
F. Widow's Peak - Examine the hairline on the forehead
The widow's peak is dominant (W) while a straight hairline is
recessive (w)
Widows peak
G. Earlobe attachment
"free" (unattached) earlobes are dominant (E),
attached earlobes are recessive (e)
Н.
Eye Pigmentation
A dark pigment (green/brown/black) is dominant (P),
a light pigment (grey/blue) is recessive (p)
