Humans carry two alleles for earlobe shape E for freehanging
Humans carry two alleles for earlobe shape: E for free-hanging earlobes and e for attached earlobes. Considering that free-hanging earlobes are dominant to attached earlobes, please draw a Punnett Square in the space below crossing a heterozygous individual with free-hanging earlobes with an individual with attached earlobes and include what the percentage of the offspring is homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, heterozygous, attached earlobes and free-hanging earlobes.
Solution
Answer:
Ee( free-hanging earlobes) x ee (attached earlobes)
E, e e ----------------------gametes
homozygous dominant : homozygous recessive : heterozygousfree-hanging earlobes
0 : 1 : 1

| E | Ee ( free-hanging earlobes) |
