The correct Answer is:
To determine the odd one out with respect to dominant traits in humans, we need to analyze each option provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Traits**: The options given are: - Blue eyes - Brown eyes - Free earlobes - Myotonic dystrophy 2. **Determine Dominance**: - **Blue Eyes**: This trait is considered recessive in humans. Individuals with blue eyes must inherit two copies of the blue eye allele (one from each parent). - **Brown Eyes**: This trait is dominant. The brown eye allele can mask the presence of the blue eye allele, meaning that a person only needs one copy of the brown eye allele to have brown eyes. - **Free Earlobes**: This trait is also dominant. Individuals with at least one copy of the free earlobe allele will exhibit free earlobes. - **Myotonic Dystrophy**: This is a genetic disorder that is also inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Therefore, having one copy of the myotonic dystrophy allele can result in the disease. 3. **Identify the Odd One Out**: - From the analysis, blue eyes are the only trait that is recessive. All the other traits (brown eyes, free earlobes, and myotonic dystrophy) are dominant traits. 4. **Conclusion**: The odd one out with respect to dominant traits in humans is **blue eyes**. ### Final Answer: Blue eyes ---
