If there are 16 alleles for tongue curling, then 16 is the maximum and 8 is the minimum number of people exhibiting the trait.

<h3>What is a dominant trait?</h3>

In genetics, complete dominance is a phenomenon where only one allele is sufficient to express a trait.

A homo-zygous is an individual having the same alleles or gene variant for a specific gene locus.

A heterozygous is an individual having two different alleles or variants for a specific gene locus.
