In humans, Kinky hair (H++), curly hair (H+), wavy hair H) and straight hair (h) are dominant in that order. Dark hair dominates red hair. A male with wavy red hair, whose mother has straight dark hair, marries a dark haired female with straight hair who has a father with curly red hair. What type of children can they expect to produce, and what is the probability of producing these types of offspring?

Thank you again Bio Man. I really appreciate your help. Believe it or not I am actually beginning to get the hang of these although some of them still stump me along the way.
What do the B and b represent in your P sq?

You're welcome.

The small b is red hair (the recessive trait) and the large B is dark hair (the dominant trait). I used the letter B to indicate black hair (or dark hair). You can choose which ever letter you like. The trick with this question is figuring out the hair colour genes of the man and woman's parents because they do not give you full details.

Reply back if you need further assistance.

Great! Thanks again. I apologize for asking that Q because after a closer look I see that you had already indicated what the representations were in a smaller font. That was my mistake and I should have guessed as much because you are very thourough with your answers. Hope I can be of assistance to you one day but something tells me it won't be in Biology. HaHa.  Until then.................

you're welcome momof1; you will eventually get the hang of it!

thank you

Thank you
