Best Answer

Unfortunately, very little is known about the genetics of hair color. About all we do know is, the color of one's hair is determined by how much of a pigment called eumelanin it contains. In addition, the amount of eumelanin is controlled by many genes working together (possibly with some genes shutting off or turning on other genes) so the answer cannot be worked out in a simple Mendelian way. That being said, it's possible a blonde person with two dark-haired parents may be able to pass dark hair on to his or her offspring.

Yes, the offspring might either have blond hair or black hair or it could be a dark blonde which would be a mix

What colour hair will the baby have if the father has fair hair and the mother has black hair?

The answer to this question depends on their parents' hair colors. If both have a blond (or red) haired parent, it is possible they could have children with blond (or red) hair. The black is more dominant than brown, so if the black haired parent has two black haired parents it is much more likely they will have black hair or the black has about 65% the brown has 35% so it will be a mix of black and brown probably black with a bit of brown i was learning about DNA


How can an offspring show a trait that is not displayed in either of the parents?
