Ginger or red hair is a recessive gene, the most rare hair color in fact
- meaning if its combined with any other gene brunette/black (even blonde) it won't show up (phenotype)
Unless the father has a recessive (hidden) ginger gene as well, then the chances would be 50%.
This link should give you an idea about the eye colour: http://museum.thetech.org/ugenetics/eyeCalc/eyecalculator.html In order for the child to have red hair it needs to inherit the 'ginger gene' from both parents. We inherit two hair colour genes, one from our mother the other from our father. But because the ginger gene is recessive, you need two ginger genes to meet in the same person in order to show. If it doesn't have two ginger genes and instead a ginger and a brown gene the hair with show up brown because the brown is dominant over the ginger. The father obviously has both ginger genes, so will definitely pass on one ginger gene, the mother could also have one, but having definitely got a brown hair gene, the brown is dominant so you wouldn't know if she had a recessive ginger gene. The best thing to do is see if there are any red heads in the rest of the family, amongst the grandparents or even great grandparents on the mothers side, although it could have remained present and passed down, it would not show unless it meets with another ginger gene (like in the case of the father, his parent both had one). So basically it could have either brown or red. The general consensus is that the colouring of the child should be no darker than the darkest parent, so it is very unlikely you would get a child with black hair and brown eyes.
Probably brown. It depends on what the parents carry as a recessive gene.
The mother's genotype is rr. The daughter would inherit one recessive allele from her mother because her mother has only recessive alleles. Because the daughter is green eyed, she would inherit a dominant allele from her father. The brown-eyed daughter's genotype would be Rr.
No that would create a moose.
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
Brown color of eye is dominant over blue color. If the mother is homozygous for brown color of eye, than the all the children will have brown color eyes. If mother is heterozygous for brown eyes, than 50% of children will have brown eyes and 50% will have blue eyes.
Both brown and blonde (not bleached but gentle blonde) would work well with ginger but usually if your hair has a brownish tint then the brown highlights would work better but with a lighter ginger, blonde highlights would blend beautifully. Good luck. Hope this helped.
there is no way to be certain until the baby is born, but my mum has dark brown eyes, my father blue, and i also have blue eyes.
That would be the father-in-law and the mother-in-law.
A fraternal grandmother refers to a grandmother on your father's side of the family. She would be the mother of your father, as opposed to the grandmother on your mother's side, who would be the maternal grandmother.
who, whould you say is the father or mother of the i pod
When your mother's mother and your father's mother are sisters, then your mother and father are first cousins to each other.
