What cause dimples (in your cheeks)? Is it inherent?
If you sport those charming creases on either side of your oral cavity every time you crack a smile, you have one little gene (and your parents, of course) to thank.
Each physical trait you possess is represented by a set of two of genes -- one each from mom and pop. This set of two can either be a combination of two dominant genes, one dominant and one recessive gene, or two recessive genes.
All you entail is one dominant gene to inherit a particular trait. Dimples, along beside other traits such as freckles, a widow's peak, a cleft chin, and yes, even bushy eyebrows, are passed along by a single dominant gene. If you own dimples, you have the dominant trait (D-). If you don't, you own the recessive (dd). It's that simple.
Try this fun exercise to get a better analysis of genetics and inheritance (plus you just might see what your adjectives children could look like). Who knows? If you enjoy a stray widow's peak or prominent chin floating around surrounded by your gene pool, your child just might hold a future surrounded by late-night TV.

This is a REALLY good grill but I dont the answer sorry!!
Yes just resembling hair colour and such resembling dimpls are passed down through generations. I adjectives my mothers charming dimples and so did my younger sister so i' m afraid to say i'm stuck next to them!
My little girl has get a dimple in her cheek (face, right!) only where my behind father had one. I regard that makes it genetic contained by her case anyway.
