If 2 redheads ,who both have parents with brown hair, have a baby together, what hair color will he/

If both parents have red hair and red hair is recessive the kids will all have red hair.



But I'm not sure that the inheritance of hair colour in humans is that simple



If 2 redheads ,who both have parents with brown hair, have a baby together, what hair color will he/she have?

Brown hair is the dominant gene. Red hair has the recessive gene.



Since both of you have red hair, both of you have the gene for red hair, but it is recessive.



Therefore there is a one in four chance the child will have red hair. There is a three in four chance it will be brown.



If 2 redheads ,who both have parents with brown hair, have a baby together, what hair color will he/she have?

well brown hair is the dominant gene, meaning it only takes one person to have it and that is what it will be. But as you both have red hair, then the gene is recessive, meaning you need ywo of the gene for it to happen. And as you are both red heads you will both have the recessive gene, meaning the child will have red hair.



If 2 redheads ,who both have parents with brown hair, have a baby together, what hair color will he/she have?

it depends on the color of the baby
