Solution

Dominant trait:

  1. All the traits of our body are controlled by genes and environmental effects.
  2. For a particular trait, there is a gene responsible for that.
  3. There can be two or multiple alleles of that gene.
  4. An allele can be dominant on the other one.
  5. When a dominant trait can be seen in an individual, the dominant allele is responsible for that.
  6. A dominant allele can show its effect even in heterozygous conditions.
  7. A straight thumb is a dominant trait because it is controlled by a dominant allele.
