In man, dimples (D) is dominant over the gene for no dimples (d). A man who has dimples, but whose mother had no dimples is married to a woman who is heterozygous for dimples. What are the genotypes for the man and women? What are the different genotypes of the offspring from the above cross?

Step 1

The man has dimples, which means he must have at least one dominant allele for dimples (D). Since his mother had no dimples, she must have had two recessive alleles for no dimples (dd). Show more…
