trait (T). People who cannot taste the chemical are called non-tasters and
exhibit the recessive phenotype (t). Lola returns to Atlanta with her four-year
old daughter, and is bringing child support charges against her old boyfriend
Herman. Lola claims Herman is the father of the child. Herman claims that he
is not the perpetrator and denies his fatherhood of the child. Lola is a nontaster, Herman is a non-taster, and the child is a taster.

b. What is Herman’s genotype?___________
c. Work out the cross between these two characters,
and list the possible offspring they could produce.

child?______
