Here is the solution to your question in English:

  1. Identify the parental genotypes.

    From the description, "widow's peak" is dominant, and "frontal hairline" is recessive. We will use BB for widow's peak and bb for frontal hairline.
    A man with homozygous widow's peak has the genotype BBBB.
    A woman with homozygous frontal hairline has the genotype bbbb.

  2. Determine the gametes produced by each parent.

    The man (BBBB) will produce all gametes with BB.
    The woman (bbbb) will produce all gametes with bb.

  3. Use a Punnett square to determine the F1 offspring genotypes.

    GametesBbBb\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \text{Gametes} & B \\ \hline b & Bb \\ \hline \end{array}

    The F1 offspring will all have the genotype BbBb.

  4. Determine the phenotype of the F1 offspring.

    Since BB is the dominant trait, all individuals with the BbBb genotype will express the widow's peak trait.

    F1 offspring:
    Genotype: BbBb
    Phenotype: Widow's peak
