Q.
In humans, the condition hyperdactyly (the possession of twelve fingers) is determined by a dominant allele $(H)$ and the normal condition by the recessive allele $(h)$
The following diagram shows a family tree in which some members of the family are hyperdactylous

The genotypes of persons $1,2$ and $3$ in this family tree are
