Now, determine the possible genotypes of the babies born to the Pooles. Use Punnett squares if you need.
| Trait | Possible Baby Genotypes |
| Widow's Peak | |
| Earlobes |
Compare the possible genotypes with the genotypes of the three evacuated babies. Which babies can possibly belong to the Haye's?
Based on all the information you have gathered, indicate which babies belong
to each set of parents.
