Let's address each question:

Question 1: If you inherit one dominant allele for dimples (D) and one recessive allele for no dimples (d), what will be your genotype?

  • The correct answer is D (Dd).

Question 2: If you inherit one dominant allele for dimples (D) and one recessive allele for no dimples (d), what will be your phenotype?

  • The phenotype is determined by the dominant allele, so the individual will have dimples. The correct answer is B (dimples).

Question 3: What do you call one version or form of a trait?

  • The correct answer is A (allele).

To summarize:

  1. Genotype: Dd
  2. Phenotype: dimples
  3. One version of a trait: allele
