While Maria's mom has small ears (alleles ee), her dad has large ears (alleles EE). What are the possible phenotypes Maria would have from her parents regarding the size of her ears?

The only possible phenotype is large ears.

This is because using a punnet square reveals that each option has a dominant allele of large ears, leaving no room for the recessive trait of small ears.

Hope this helps!

Maria would possess the phenotypes of long ears only.

What do you mean by Phenotypes?

The Phenotype may be defined as the appearance or manifestation of the desired characters.

Maria's mother has alleles ee, while her father has alleles EE. When ee × EE, the resultant genotypes are only Ee which represents the phenotype of the long ear. This is because the allele for long ear E is dominant over the allele for short ear e.

Therefore, Maria would possess the phenotypes of long ears only.
