How many people in the world have a straight hairline?

It is difficult to provide an exact number, but straight hairlines are less common compared to other types of hairlines such as widow's peak or receding. Straight hairlines are considered a genetic trait and can vary in prevalence based on ethnic backgrounds and individual genetics.


Could 2 people with a widows peak have a child with a straight hairline and could 2 people with a straight hairline have a child with a widows peak EXPLAIN?

Yes to the first one, no to the second one. Firstly, widow's peak is caused by a dominant gene while a straight hairline is caused by a recessive gene. Let 'H' be dominant and 'h' be recessive. So for a dominant gene, the trait still will be expressed whether the genotype of the person is homozygous dominant(HH) or heterozygous(Hh). For a recessive gene however, the trait will only be expressed when the genotype of the person is homozygous recessive (hh). So two people with a widow's peak CAN have a child with a stright hairline, provided both of their genotypes are Hh. This is because by crossing their genotypes, they can have a possibility of having child with the genotype HH(widow's peak), Hh(widow's peak), and also hh(straight hairline). The ratio of these three possibilities however, are 1:2:1. So the odds of having a child with a straight hairline in this case is 1:3. If the two people who have widow's peak have the genotype HH or one of them HH and the other Hh, then the possibility of having a child with a straight hairline is 0. This is because by crossing their genotypes together, the genotype of the child will either be HH for the first case, and HH or Hh for the second case. For two people who have a straight hairline, the genotype of both will definitely be homozygous recessive (hh), thus child will definitely have the recessive gene. Therefore, it is not possible for two people with straight hairline to have a child with widow's peak.


Is Kevin Jonas having a receding hairline?

no


How can two parents with a dominant trait like a widow's peak have a child with a recessive straight hairline?

If both parents have a dominant widow's peak trait (which is likely a dominant genetic trait), they may still carry the recessive allele for a straight hairline. When they both pass on their recessive allele for straight hairline to their child, the child would exhibit the recessive trait for a straight hairline. This is possible through the inheritance of different alleles for the same trait from each parent.

In humans widows peak w is dominant over straight hairline w if a heterozygous male marries a female with a straight hairline what percent of their children can be expected to have a widows peak?

According to Mendelian genetics, if the male is heterozygous for the widows peak trait (Ww) and the female has a straight hairline (ww), 50% of their children are expected to have a widows peak (Ww) and the remaining 50% of their children are expected to have a straight hairline (ww).


In humans widow's peak (W) is dominant over straight hairline (w). If a heterozygous male marries a female with a straight hairline what percent of their children can be expected to have widow's peak?

50% of their children are expected to have a widow's peak. When a heterozygous male (Ww) with a widow's peak gene marries a female with a straight hairline (ww), their offspring have a 50% chance of inheriting the widow's peak gene from the father.
