Curly hair is recessive and straight hair is dominant A woman with curly hair marries a man who is homozygous dominant for straight hair. What are the outcomes for their children?

All of their children will have straight hair, as the father can only pass on the dominant straight hair allele. The children will inherit one straight hair allele from their father and one curly hair allele from their mother, but the dominant straight hair allele will mask the recessive curly hair allele.


What does the curly and straight hair gene control?

If you have straight hair of curly hair. I think straight haris is dominant.


If a baby goat received dominant gene for curly hair from one parent and recessive gene for straight hair from the other which trait will the baby goat display?

curly hair, as the dominant gene overrules the recessive gene I THINK :)


Why does a person who inherits an allele for curly hair and an allele for straight hair have curly hair?

This happens because of the dominant and recessive alleles. This means that if your dad had curly hair naturally, and your mother had straight hair you would have both alleles, but your mum's gene of the straight hair was recessive. It was dominated by the curly hair gene. Bullied away, if you prefer. It is totally normal, and often happens. However, that does not mean the curly hair gene always is dominant, it just means that your curly hair gene was. If you would prefer straight hair though, you can buy straighteners, and hair straightening products.


If straight hair is genetic why do you have straight if none f your ancestors did?

it is because the parents each were heterozyous dominant. meaning each of them had a dominant allele and a recessive allele. the dominant allele would be the curly hair, and the recessive allele would be the straight hair. There would be a 1/4 chance that the child would have curly hair, and a 3/4 chance that they would have curly hair. Say that the Curly hair allele was H and the straight hair allele was h. In order for the parents to have curly hair, they would either have to have an HH gamete or an Hh gamete. Seeing as though the child came out with curley hair, both parents would have to have an Hh gamete. In order to find out the probability, you multiply the parents gametes. (Hh)(Hh). This will give you HH, Hh, Hh, hh. seeing has three of the gametes have the dominant allele, this child will have curly hair, and one is a homozygous recessive, so it will turn out with straight hair.


Is straight hair controlled by a dominate allele or recessive allele?

Straight hair is typically controlled by a dominant allele. Curly hair is usually controlled by a recessive allele.


Wavy hair is caused by the shared expression of a allele for curly hair and an allele for straight hair?

it depends on which allele is most dominant in the parents.

What type of hair will two curly hair parents have?

Yes! It's more likely that the child would have straight hair, but it's all about the genes. Likely both of the straight-haired people have straight-hair dominant genes; if that's true, then there's about a 25% chance that the child would have curly hair. If the parents or even grandparents had curly hair when they were younger, it's more likely as well. For example -- both of my parents have straight hair (but my mom had curly hair when she was younger) and my sister has straight hair as well. I turned out to have curly hair.
