∙ 9y agoA dimple is a dominant trait. If a father has two dominant dimple genes (DD) and the mother has two recessive dimple genes (dd), the baby's dimple alleles will be Dd, meaning he will have dimples.

∙ 9y agoThe child has a 50% chance of inheriting dimples. This is because dimples are a dominant trait, so if one parent is heterozygous for dimples, they will have one dominant allele for dimples to pass on to their child. The child would need to inherit this dominant allele from the heterozygous parent in order to express the trait.

∙ 9y agoD and d are alleles for dimples, DD and Dd have dimples but kk does not have dimples. The gene responsible for dimples is present in chromosome number 16.

Yes. Dimples are dominant. If you have one or two dimples, you have the dominant trait, and your genotype is D-, meaning that we don't know whether you are homozygous dominant or heterozygous for the trait. If you don't have dimples, your genotype is dd, which is homozygous recessive.
Sucking your cheeks in regularly is unlikely to create dimples. Dimples are genetic and caused by a variation in the facial muscle structure. However, exercises that target the cheek muscles may help improve facial muscle tone and definition over time.
No, dimples are not considered a facial deformity. Dimples are a genetic trait that results in small indentations on the cheeks when a person smiles. They are considered a desirable feature by many people and are not associated with any health issues.
Yes, it is normal to have two dimples on one cheek. Dimples are genetically inherited and can appear on one or both cheeks. Having two dimples on one cheek is perfectly natural and can be considered unique or cute by some people.
If you have dimples on your tongue from your childhood, that is not bad. Some people may feel good about it. Dimples appearing after you have become adult are problematic. You need to consult the general surgeon or dentist who have done post graduation in oral surgery.

Dd is the heterozygous genotype for dimples.
This would depend on whether the allele for dimples is dominant or recessive. If the allele for dimples is dominant and the no dimples allele is recessive then the phenotype of the individual would be dimpled. If the allele for no dimples is dominant and the allele for no dimples is recessive then the dimples will not be expressed. If these alleles are codominant then the dimples will be expressed but not as much as in an individual who has both alleles for dimples.

Dimples are thought to be a dominant trait, meaning that an individual only needs one copy of the gene for dimples to have them. If both parents have dimples, their children are likely to inherit dimples as well.
depends... were they homozygous or heterozygous?
a example of a gene
Nope, the alleles for smile dimples are actually dominant, not recessive.
Around 20-30% of people in the US are estimated to have dimples. Dimples are considered a dominant genetic trait, so they often run in families.
Dimples are small indentations that can appear on the cheeks when someone smiles. They are considered a genetic trait and are often inherited from family members. Dimples are seen as a cute or attractive feature by some people.
In this case, the mother does not have dimples (Dd) but the father does not have dimples (dd). The Punnett square would show that half of the offspring would have dimples (Dd) and the other half would not have dimples (dd).
