I was wondering how it is possible that I ended up with one ear lobe clearly attached, and the other clearly unattached. I have read all about the dominant gene process etc., but it never seems to address how you end up with one of each. ... I have a friend who has an attached and an unattached earlobe too. Very cool.

Are your earlobes free hanging or attached to your head? ... Some people have earlobes than hang, and some people don’t. The gene for free hanging earlobes is dominant, and the gene for attached earlobes is recessive.

Whether or not you have attached or free earlobes is determined by your genetics. But the pattern of inheritance of earlobe attachment is not as simple as previously taught. ... If your father has two recessive alleles for ear lobe attachment then he will have attached ear lobes.

Our assignment was to conduct a survey determining the number of people that have a dominant trait of earlobe attachment. The dominant trait is free earlobes and the recessive trait is attached earlobes. We surveyed 187 people within John Burke and out of these people 115 had the dominant trait of having free earlobes.

Based on its findings, MURG has proposed that the attached lobe (AL) population be registered in a national database and monitored by the Department of Homeland Security.

The mode of inheritance of ear wax type, ear lobe attachment and tongue rolling ability were studied in 77 families with a total of 293 children. The results clearly showed that the dry ear wax type and the attached ear lobe type represent the homozygous state for two pairs of autosomal recessive genes.
