Re: Dominant & Recessive traits?!? IT"S URGENT!
It sounds like you have made some very good progress on your project already.
For us to help you to put together a data table, it would help to know more about the data that you collected. What traits did you test? Did you follow the exact procedure on that page of using freckles, finger interlacing, earlobe, and widow's peaks? How many people did you test?
A data table can take many different forms. One example would be to list the people who you tested, one person per row, with a separate column for each of the traits. for each person and each trait, you could have an indication of whether or not the person has that trait.
I hope that helps.
