Skin colour is determined by the pigments in your skin called melanin. Skin colour is determined by at least 8 different genes in your body acting in a very complex manner. It's impossible to tell based on looking at the two parent's skin colours

Are all noble gases lighter than air?

No. The molar mass of dry air is 28.97 g/mol. Noble gases are monatomic, so their atomic mass represent their molar mass. From this we can tell that helium and neon are less dense (lighter) than air, while argon (atomic mass 39.9) onwards are denser than air.


What color hair will the baby have if the father has blond and the mother has brown?

It depends on a lot of things. First, what color of hair do each of your parents have? Lighter hair is a recessive trait, and darker hair is dominant. Chances are that the baby will have darker hair. Of course, lots of children are born with blonde hair that darkens as it gets older. <P>To answer this we have to dabble into genetics... First off both red and blonde are recessive genes, meaning that they do not become the dominnant trait very easily. Brown is a dominant gene, which means it shows up most of the time as the dominant trait. You best guess would to be look at your family history. Are there lots of blondes in either side of your family? If so the chance that you baby would have blonde hair is much higher, because the recessive trait is coming out more. If you mostly have brown or black haired people in your family, the dominant gene is holding and most likely the baby would have brown or black hair.</P>
