So all of the dominant means a six fingered, tone deaf, farsighted short hairy person with a migraine...

That makes sense. Maybe I'm weird. I could be "protecting" my dominant hand with my "less important" hand,.

[@jackycenmua7064]

buzzfeed, there's also incomplete dominance and codominance, polygenic dominance, and sex-linked genetic dominance. the height trait is a polygenic dominance, it isnt just one trait that makes you tall or short, its a couple different ones when in conjunction with eachother that make you your height. (if there was only a tall or short gene, there would only be two heights that people can be at like 6'1 or 5'2 or something). source: ap bio student

Holy shit i never even know thumb folding was a trait wtf

[@jamesevan3975]

***** Yeah, I'm right handed and I put my left thumb over my right.

[@MissTelepathic]

TheVesylum Well, maybe because it's not a trait determined by genetics, "Reiss (1999) concluded that there may be some genetic basis for this character (because LxL matings produce more L offspring than do RxR matings), but it is not a simple one-gene, two-allele genetic character. If the myth were true, two R parents could not have an L child, but almost a third of the children of RxR matings are L" (just a quote to prove my point). It's not clear where the idea that L is dominant over R came from, unless it's the unfortunately common misconception that common = dominant

[@Whatareulooknat]

I just remembered it by thinking dominant traits are more powerful than recessive traits (That, and I really liked the subject, lol).. Just picture dominant traits being a stereotypical strong man, and recessive traits being a lanky person!

[@2bsinabbigail483]

No. Dominant means that only one parent needs to have the allele for the dominant trait for it to show up in offspring. Recessive means that both parents must give the allele for the recessive trait in order for an offspring to show the trait.

[@roneenewton5901]

Does ethnicity have anything to do with dictating your dominant trait ? Eye sight, migraines, height... it's hard to believe that "trait domination" is universal. I mean, I don't get migraines, but this video say that it's more common ! I don't get it.

[@chelsea4292]

It all has to do with genes. Basically you and your partner make up a baby with dominant features. like if you have blue eyes and your partner has green eyes, chances are the baby will have blue eyes.

[@lumilta]

It's saying that migraines are dominant but not common,

[@juliajesus35]

Yes. That is called Population Genetics. And migraines are dominant but don't necessarily mean they're common (0:25). If you get to study real genetics you'll get it. Recessive can appear less but they're untouchable when a man and a woman have it. E.g.: You marry a man with no migraines. And assuming you don't have migraines too, your child won't have it too. This cycle will only break if one of your descendants ever marry someone with genetic's migraines. And there is a 0-50% chance this descendant still won't get the migraines. (I gave this example twice now lol)

[@bbc4life29]

Ronee Newton yeah black man genes take over anyone's genes the strongest 💪🏿

[@neham2056]

ethnicity does play a part i believe!

[@EvilasFUDGE]

My dad was born with a deformed right arm, shoulder and hand. He only has three fingers. He has gotten he's shoulder joint exchanged twice. He got tested to see if the deformity was a dominant gene when my mom got pregnant with me, the doctors said it was, and my parents almost considered aborting me, so I wouldn't have to suffer like he did, but the ultrasound and the tests showed that everything was normal, and I was born with healthy arms. They did the same tests with my sister, and she was also born with healthy arms. The doctors couldn't explain it, and they still can't.

[@AUSSIEDAVEROCKS]

If you can see ten fingers in total on your hands, then you're Dominant. I have eight fingers and two opposable thumbs in total. The correct name you were looking for instead of ten fingers, is "ten digits".

[@brync8296]

AUSSIEDAVEROCKS Whoops, I was super tired when I wrote that, it was really late in my time zone lol. Thanks for the correction! :)

[@nebullae]

As for your vision, it's fairly easy to tell the difference. Do you find yourself holding books closer to your eyes when you read for long periods of time, or further away? Can you see details from objects in the distance (like inside a window a block away), or do you find yourself squinting to do so? Also, if you have prescription glasses, your optometrist should have ordered different kinds of lenses depending on near/far-sightedness, because they cause different problems. Hope this helps.

[@skylerdavis1732]

Saleana Yang yes I did, but I kinda don't understand anything.

[@XxKingKristianxX]

Skyler Davis Dominant traits are the ones you "see", whilst recissive ones are the ones you have but you can't "see". A commonly used example would be when one of your parents has brown-coloured eyes and the other one have blue-coloured eyes. If you were to get both genes you would end up with brown-coloured eyes since they are the dominant ones against the blue-coloured eyes. Yet you would still have both traits, just that the blue would't be shown physically (makes it a recessive) Note: I might've explained it "a bit" wrong or bad, I excuse myself for that :P

FORD PINES IN THE NORMAL ONE WE'RE ALL 5 FINGERED FREAKS AH

[@dxrk1560]

I love these videos

[@queeny4080]

I obviously have 6 fingers. like, does anyone NOT?!

[@queeny4080]

*whispers* it's called sarcasm

[@tmallison1753]

Midnaquil and Fishcrafter XXXXDDDD

[@J040PL7]

well in case u are starving for whatever reason. u can always eat your extra finger.

[@nickcarbaugh4301]

6 fingers? I hear someones after you

[@Fadeblackness]

Nick Carbaugh Only if it's on his right hand

[@yatosjumpsuit6837]

I have all dominant except short, and 6 fingers.

[@sukievw]

We watched this in school and I didn't realize it was buzzfeed until I saw Eugene

[@deleshamcarthur3925]

Break out the punnett squares

[@patriciaynb]

Right handed or left handed?! No answer to that? Lemme guess... right. I'm a leftie.

[@sadmattress9077]

Lefties unite! Dojoguy365 - Minecraft, Mini-Games, Let's Plays

[@patriciaynb]

Haha! Yep! Lefties!

[@gerykafortunato3351]

Lefties r awesome! We're awesome! :D

[@patriciaynb]

Geryka Fortunato Of course we're awesome! Lefties *high five with the left hand*

[@kibby_kat]

Omega Derp I'm a leftie too :3 And I hear only 10% of the world's population are lefties :-)

[@NathalieHoran]

1. Dominant 2. Dominant 3. Recessive 4. Dominant 5. Recessive 6. Recessive 7. Dominant 8. Recessive So it's like 50-50%

[@UniqueliAnimationsSN]

yay so that means I can be dominant and recessive

[@eliseg8770]

+Nathalie Ferreira Way Diamandis for me: 1- crossing fingers- Dominant 2- rolling tongue- Dominant 3- stature/height- Dominant (I think I'm short) 4- body hair- Recessive 5- musical ability- Recessive 6- near/farsighted- Recessive 7- migraines- Recessive 8- fingers- Recessive (ugh why won't it be in a list form)

[@MrBromedy]

+Elise G 1. Recessive 2. Dominate 3. Recessive 4. Dominate 5. Recessive 6. Recessive 7. Recessive 8. Recessive

[@tiantu9830]

It was easy to guess, just pick the one people don't want. LOL

[@deemoore97]

I guessed all of them right! Also musical ability makes sense, since my mum has it and my sister doesn't, but since both my mum and dad do, so do I

[@Skelly8elly]

Eugene singing though

[@fishfoods2622]

I actually have more than 6 fingers, I have 10 fingers

[@sanaasolomon704]

thus is good for me bc were learning about this in school

[@isaacisis5876]

My thumb goes over my left thumb (ressesive), I can roll my young (dominant), Tall (for my age) (ressesive), lot of body hair (dominant), musical ability (ressesive), Nearsighted (ressesive), susceptibility to migranes (dominant), five fingers (ressesive)

[@Chrnan6710]

Rolling your tongue is actually not a trait, it can be learned. :)

[@emeliahovde2823]

It's a trait. It's one of the first traits scientists studied. It can't be learned. It just means you didn't know you could do it before.

[@miniemouse321]

Actually (to Emma) it can be learned, like force yourself to learn just like how you can give yourself dimples and raise your left eyebrows. For dimples you just poke your checks with your fingers and hold it for a while. Most people cannot raise their left eyebrow but I taught myself by raising both eyebrows but holding my right eyebrow down. It really is all about muscles :)

[@malicedub]

Jade hills If you have dimples, you're born with it. You can't just make yourself have them. It's a *facial muscle deformity*. You're *BORN* with it. You can't just give yourself dimples. They can show up or disappear, but you can't just make them if you're not born with them.

[@malicedub]

Jade hills And yes, they all have to do with facial muscles. That you're *BORN* with.

[@TheDaisyBubble]

I couldn't do it 5 years ago, but now I can

[@zeniashow]

Man. I have a whole mess of traits. Guess I'm ... Human.

[@karenisrichandpretty]

Eugene is goals af

[@OsagieGuobadia]

With all of these categories, I am a dominant allele based on my eye color (brown).

[@NicklePiefy]

The six finger thing, along with everything else, is probably true. You have to realize that "dominant" doesn't mean "more common", it means that if one of your parents has it, you will certainly also have it.

[@NicklePiefy]

***** Oh yeah, I forgot about that.

[@191pikachu191]

im 8'5 and im 9

[@ChortlesOfDoom]

You meant 5'8", right? That's what you meant? God I hope that's what you meant. o.O

[@191pikachu191]

Your right I meant I'm 9'8 and I'm 5. Sorry got the numbers mixed up.

[@ChortlesOfDoom]

Ha, it's fine. I just thought you were some giant or something, so I got a little confused. xD

[@diydaze6443]

9'8?! And your five?!

[@191pikachu191]

Yup :3

[@janelles9312]

Dominant and recessive aren't the only two phenotypes. Codominance and incomplete dominance also exist. It's how some people can write with both hands and see without glasses!

[@Imran-yr6qh]

well boys and gals, it's safe to say that other than my dark hair, i have the most recessive genes on this planet ; gray eyes, tall stature, double eyelashes, fold over my left thumb, have a small nose and have musical ability oh and i'm straight white and male

[@themanofhours]

Actually, in a recent study on identical twins, they found that rolling tongue ability is not simply a dominant trait, it is a culmination of multiple genes. So some of these other facts may be false as well..

[@chowder125]

I hope if i ever have a son he does not get my dominant short stature, i'm 5'3. I need to breed with a tall man and roll the dice lol.

[@MsPtilopsis]

As long as both, your parents and your partner's parents, side have a tall person, then you have a shot at a tall child. But if either side is completely short there will be no chance of a tall child. Happy Mating Season! lol

[@gurlzrool]

You're 5'3? I'm just barely reaching 5'1 and I'm 20 so this is it for me!

[@Kira1Lawliet]

I'm 6'5''. What're you doing tonight?

[@chowder125]

MsPtilopsis Lol my maternal grandfather was tall but everyone else in my family is average height or slightly above it and gurlzrool i feel you on that, i'm 21 and is not growing anymore neither.

[@chowder125]

Kira1Lawliet Lol this actually made me laugh so hard, i don't know why lol

[@scraggyboi]

In the womb I was seen with 7 fingers on both hands

[@scraggyboi]

That explains the larger gap between my fingers

[@firetierra]

I put my right thumb over left (recessive) I can roll my tongue (dominant) I'm fairly small for my age 156 cm and I am 20 (dominant) I have lots of hair (dominant) I'm not tone deaf (recessive) I have Astigmatism and Myopia (I dont actually know, help?) I have migraines (dominant) And I have five fingers (recessive)

[@user-wy5dq1ov4w]

I don't get the farsighted and nearsighted XD

[@user-wy5dq1ov4w]

My brother has 6 toes my mom cut it off when he was just born

[@PradeepKari]

Having 6 toes would be awesome, but society.

[@jarjardaze2485]

+KariBros22 - Ultragamers why would that be awesome it looks ugly to me. My dad had it so he cut it of beacuse it looked like a mutation

[@eligirl100]

+Cookeh Gamez Do you mean you don't understand what it means or you don't possess farsightedness or nearsightedness? If it's the first: nearsighted: you can read a book w/out glasses but need glasses to see the blackboard in class or can't see from far too well farsighted: you need glasses to read a book but you can see thing that are very far very well

[@Hailz12211]

+eligirl100 what if u dont need glasses? have 20/20 vision D:

[@UnlockGreatness]

How is 6 fingers a dominant trait???

[@TearingRainbows]

Just because it is uncommon does't mean that it can't be dominant. If almost everyone has the recessive gene, then it is unlikely for many people to have it, beside the fact that it is a dominant trait. Very few people have this trait, meaning that only those people can carry the gene, which means only their offspring can carry the trait, as someone who doesn't have it won't have offspring who will develop the trait as long as they don't have a child with someone who has six fingers.

[@Hahar1992]

i have six toes does that count(by the way noone has ever made fun of me for that only downside is i have to wear custom made shoes)

[@willsmith6766]

It is called Polydactyly. My grandma, mom, and sister had six fingers on each hand. It only takes one parent to have it for it to appear in their children. Its is just unlikely to happen.

[@azqg]

so if one was to have 6 fingers, how would one give the middle finger?

[@glitteringcraft12]

Uh.....

[@sallpinecindercake9459]

I'm all dominate traits except the 6-fingers and the right thumb over the left one

[@datan00dles67]

Wanting and studying to be a geneticist, I got all of these correct.

[@naseerahvj]

I'm an MLS so I knew most of them from school too

[@JustSayin85]

I am recessive on everything listed here. I knew all this thanks to 9th grade biology (long time ago). Also during the same course of study my teacher made everyone stick this strip of paper in their mouth and everyone in the class could taste it except the teacher and I. I always wondered what it tasted like because apparently it was disgusting, so he passed out candy afterwards to get rid of the taste. I was recessive in that as well.

[@amybains5967]

I'm 5'0" and I'm 13.

[@sillyparticles]

Lol inch away from 5' only 12

[@sillyparticles]

I meant 12

[@sillyparticles]

Grrrrr 11

[@xddrummeronmc9087]

I'm 5'6" and 13. Rekt much? :)

[@GamingGirlAnime]

5'9.5 And 13 Oh The Wonders Never End....

[@halos5150]

I can fold my left thumb over my right thumb, I can roll my tongue, I'm short, I don't have a lot of body hair, I can sing pretty well, I can see both close and far, but I only have 5 fingers on each hand.

[@steelerfan_]

1:both 2:dominant 3:recessive 4:dominant 5:idk 6:recessive 7:recessive 8:recessive (obviously)

[@Grokford]

Neither thumb positioning nor tongue rolling nor musical ability nor depth perception are genetically determined in the way you have described. Height for instance is controlled by several traits if it weren't couples with one short and one tall parent could never produce a tall person which is in fact not the case.

[@R4V3-0N]

tongue rolling is determined by a trait. thumb position is indirectly determined by a trait however it can be determined more by environmental effects and not trait.

[@Grokford]

tongue rolling is not genetically deermined udel.edu/~mcdonald/mythtongueroll.html and neither are thumb positions www.bio.net/bionet/mm/neur-sci/2001-November/047260.html

[@carolinegrova8707]

Shortness may be a dominant trait, but a short person could carry the recessive for tallness and pass that recessive along to their offspring. If that recessive was matched by a recessive for tallness from the other parent, then a couple with one tall and one short member would have a tall offspring. No?

[@Grokford]

yes that is how genes work but I don't think that tallness or shortness are so simple it's not a binary it's a spectrum so you can't accurately state that height is determined by a single factor. I am sorry tough my example was horrible.

[@ThreeEscapeas]

I agree with you! Height is polygenic inheritance- like skin and eye color! Multiple traits go into determining it.

[@kaileygibson4076]

I was dominant for all, except the last one. :)

[@mikeallevesque18]

Polydactylism is freaking awesome, in my opinion. Seriously, six fingers are better than five! More fingers, more chords.

[@asaide7357]

Damn I was unconsciously folding my hands before I saw the fact about it. My left thumb was over my right one. And when I noticed it felt so weird, I immediately changed positions

[@MichelleD2023]

Left over right/Can roll my tongue/tall/More body hair/Musical ability/Nearsighted/No migraines/5 fingers. 5 recessive, 3 dominant. Whoa...

[@MichelleD2023]

You forgot one. Did you forget to answer the one on music or the near/farsighted?

[@MichelleD2023]

Aaaaand you've got musical ability. 1 dominant, 6 recessive, and 1 neither. WHOA.

[@jamez6398]

Recessive have a 25% of getting it, so it's not that unusual. I have no idea what traits I have...

[@cindy_le1106]

That's what I had except for tall

[@CreeprSlasher]

Left over right / Can roll tongue / Still growing, but I am suppose to be tall :P / Still growing..But I am a guy, and I guess I will have more body hair / Tone deafness / Nearsighted / Migraines / 10 fingers :D 5 Dominant, 3 recessive, But if you replace the "Still growing" parts, I am 3 Dom, and 5 Rec

[@DOMiNANTIIISPECiES]

I'm DOMiNANT.

When you realize Eugene is great at EVERYTHING.

[@lailaadorable553]

Sorry for my lack of biology knowledge, but what does it mean to have a dominant gene?
