Hereditary baldness is carried by a dominant autosomal gene, say B. All homozygous BB are bald whether these are men or women. Similarly, homozygous (bb) men and women are always nonblads. In case of heterozygous (E: individuals, however, baldness develops only in men and never in women, because the singleton dominant gene B expresses itself only when push of male hormones is available.
