One inherited trait is eye dominance – the tendency to use one eye more than the other.
Here’s how you can test yourself for this trait. Try this:
1. Hold your hand out in front of you at arm’s length. Point your finger at an object across the room.
2. Close your right eye. With only your left eye open, observe how far your finger appears to move.
3. Repeat Step 2 with the right eye open.
4. With which eye did your finger seem to remain closer to the object? That eye is dominant.
... My right eye is dominant, which is dominant for you??

- Here is my updated genetics phenotype survey lab on Teachers Pay Teachers. It includes this eye dominance trait, as well as 11 other genetic traits. PowerPoint, Student worksheet and graph, answer key, etc are all included. My students LOVE doing this lab! Here's a few previews:
