They are all physical traits that can be seen in the individual's outer appearance and are therefore easy to quantify. Mendel experimented with pea morphology and colour.
Tongue rolling, earlobes, dimples, top thumb, mid-digit hair and a widow's peak can all be observed just by looking at the individual. There is no need for a medical examination or a biochemical test for processes.

why might some traits be close to the expected 3/4 dominant, 1/4 reccessive proportion and other not be
