Its possible, hair color and eye color have different strengths when it comes to genes. Brown is the strongest (most likely outcome), blonde hair is the weakest, and blue eyes are the weakest. These liks are about a 75 25 ratio so it is still possible but its unlikely.
the child received genetic information from each parent.
because some one in the family had and and it recessive trait
YES!!!! Both of my parents have dark brown hair. My oldest sister has blond hair and my other sister and I have copper red hair!!!
likely brown hair - in order for a red haired child both parents have to have the red hair gene & of course red hair.
It's possible that the child will have black, brown or red hair.
If brown hair is dominant over red hair, then a person who is heterozygous for brown hair will have a brown hair phenotype. Red-haired offspring with two brown-haired parents are fairly common.
......... Perhaps the grandparents have red hair. LOok up- dominant and recessive traits.
The gene that gives a person red hair is a ressesive gene, When a child is created, they take a gene both from their mother and from their father in order to make a pair to give them their hair colour. Certain genes are reccessive and certain genes are dominant, Usually, darker hair genes such as brown are dominant, Lighter hair genes such as red are reccessive So if a child receives a dark haired gene like brown from one parent and a lighter haired gene like red from the other parent, the child will have dark hair, as the dominant gene will dominate the hair colour. So, both the mother and the father must have had a reccessive red hair gene, Which the child was given when it was created.
Yes.
It's very hard to answer this question as there are no details on what alleles the fathers or mothers DNA contains. The father has to have an allele for red hair for the child to have a chance of having it. Presuming that the father has a brown and red hair allele and the mother has the same it works out like this. Brown + Brown = Brown Brown + Red = Brown (Because it's dominant) Brown + Red (from other parents) = Brown (Because brown is dominant) Red + Red = Red The chances of brown therefore is 3:1 as you cannot be sure on what the child will receive. MORE like 5-1 his here will be blond
Yes. One or both parents have a gene for red hair therefore the child could have red hair.
It's possible (about a 1 in 4 chance).
