My Common Genetic Characteristics

I have detached earlobes like my father. A hanging earlobe is when it hangs below the point of attachment.

A non hanging earlobe is when the earlobe is directly attached to the side of the head.













I have no cleft chin like my mother. Having a cleft chin  is more dominant than not having a cleft chin
When you have a cleft chin it is when their is a little indent in your chin also know as a butt chin.



I can roll my tongue like my mother. Being able to roll your tongue is the more dominant trait rather than not being able to.

when you can roll your tongue it means you have lots of tongue muscles.

The opposite of being able to roll your tongue is that you cant roll your tongue.
                                       
I have no dimples like my mother. Having dimples is the dominant trait over having no dimples. Dimples are little dents in your cheeks, sometimes you have dimples in both ears or sometimes in only one cheek you have a dimple.

I have very little hair on my mid-digit finger like my mother. Having hair on your mid-digit is the more dominant trait rather than the non dominant trait which is when you have no hair on your mid-digit
I have a forelock at the edge of my hairline on my forehead like my mother. Having a white forelock is the more dominant trait over not having a forelock.

I have bent thumbs like my father. Having bent thumbs is the less dominant trait over when you have straight thumbs which is the dominant trait.
Having straight thumbs is when your thumb is straight.
I have bent pinky's like my father. Having bent pinkys   is the dominant trait over having pinky that are straight.
Having straight pinkys is when your pinkys are straight,which is the non dominant trait.

I have a longer 2nd toe like my father. Having a second larger toe means that it is the more dominant trait over having a shorter 2nd toe.
Having a 2nd toe shorter than your big toe is when your big  toe is longer than the second toe on your foot.
