The man's phenotype based on the genotype for his alleles would be that the man has dry earwax.

Assuming this mode of inheritance is complete dominance, both recessive alleles need to be present in the individuals' genotype to showcase the recessive phenotype.

e - recessive allele for dry earwax

ee - dry earwax phenotype.
