In humans, having a widow's peak is the result of a dominant gene, and having a normal hairline is a recessive trait. A man who has a widow's peak is homozygous for the trait and has a child with a woman who has a normal hairline. Which of the following best describes the most likely appearance of their child's hairline?

The child will have a widows peak 100% or the time. The Father's is dominate and the mothers is recessive if you do a gene chart for it the children will always have the widows peak because there is always a dominate trait in each box.
