The leaf is the last digit on the right or the ones digits. The stem is the remaining digit or digits. Examples: For 12, 2 is the leaf and 1 is the stem. For 45.7, 7 is the leaf and 45 is the stem. Basically, a straight vertical line is used. Then, we put all stems on the left and all leaves on the right. We will now illustrate with examples.
What If My Child Does Not Yet Have A Dominant Hand? There are differing views on when hand dominance is established, but many experts agree that a consistent hand preference begins to emerge between ages 2 and 4 years, and that most children entering Kindergarten (age 5-6) have established a definite hand preference for using a pencil and scissors.
The flowers on Mendel's pea plant are an example of complete dominance, or when the dominant allele completely covers up the recessive allele. In addition to complete dominance, scientists have found incomplete dominance, where there is a blending, and codominance, where both alleles show up. An example of incomplete dominance is when a red carnation is crossed with a white carnation and the offspring are pink or a blending of the parents. An example of codominance is a roan cow where one parent is red and one parent is white. The roan cow has white and red because both alleles are expressed.
