1. Dimples

People with dimples are considered by many others as being more attractive and good-looking. Honestly, dimples really look stunning and can make everyone look a little more special, am I right? But did you know that the presence of dimples is thought to be a genetic feature?

Believe it or not, there are people who even say that dimples are actually a mutation. They say that those cute indentations are actually caused by a type of skin anomaly. But we can’t be sure of that, given the fact that there aren’t enough studies regarding this topic.

But let’s get back to genetics. These “face accessories” are a result of a dominant gene. Moreover, dimples might be caused by even a single mutated gene copy in a cell. Some people have dimples on just one cheek, whereas others have them on both.

…Do you have dimples?

2. Eye color

As we already stated at the beginning of this article, dominant and recessive genes have a significant impact on the inheritance pattern of a trait, such as an eye color.

It’s generally accepted that black eye color is dominant and that lighter eye color is recessive. If the father’s eye color is more common, the kid might inherit that trait.
