Yes. One or both parents have a gene for red hair therefore the child could have red hair.

Suppose that brown hair color is dominant over red hair color in humans Which of the statements is true?

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.


Does 2 brown haired parents make a brunette child?

Not necessarily. Hair color is determined by multiple genes inherited from both parents, so it is possible for two brown-haired parents to have a child with a different hair color, such as blonde or red. It depends on the specific combination of genes that the child inherits.


Can a Brown haired parent have a redheaded child?

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!!!


You have red hair and the dad has brown hair what hair color will the baby have?

That depends on the genes possessed by both parents. If the dad has lighter haired parents, it MAY be possible for the child to have red hair, since red is a recessive trait. However, I'd say chances are good that the child will be blonde or have light brown hair.


What color would your baby's hair be if you have black hair and dad's hair is blond?

There are many different possibilities and the odds will change based on your traits look your parents and if any of them are blond then option 1 will most likely be the case if both of your parents hair is black option 2 will most likely be the case if one of your parents hair is brown then option 3 will most likely be the case option 1: if one of your parents has blond hair the child has a 50% chance to be blond haired and a 50% chance to be black haired option 2: if both of your parents hair are black then there is a 100% chance that the child's hair will be black option 3: if one your parents hair is brown then the child has a 50% chance to be brown haired and a 50% chance to be black haired (for option 3 I'm not 100% sure, it would be great if someone else corrected me if I messed up on option 3)


If a child has blonde hair and both the parents have brown hair what does that tell you about the allele for blonde hair?

It tells you that even though the parents have brown hair, they have a recessive allele for blonde hair also. And even though brown is suppose to be visually dominant, it is not the case at all. Two brown heads can make a blonde or brown, and of course even red haired child. Another way to look at it may be the parents have the following alleles for hair color: (b,b) - (b,b) in which case the dominant allele is Blonde or Brown.


What would be the probability that two straight haired parents would have a curly haired child?

1/4 100% however if one parents hair is even slightly wavy, the child could have curly hair


Can a hazel eyed brown haired father and a blue eyed brown haired mother have a blonde haired blue eyed child?

This can definitely happen because of the concept of genetics. This especially deals with dominant and recessive traits. If both parents have one dominant trait and one recessive trait (causing dark hair and eyes) and both parents give their child the recissive traits, this outcome is possible (although pretty rare it is seen).


Can two brown haired brown eyed people have a blond hair brown eyes baby?

It depends. If both parents are pure for brown hair then no. But if they have hidden genes (genes that are there but don't show themselves) It can be possible. However both of the parents will need to carry the hidden gene because if the baby gets one blonde haired gene and one brown haired gene then the baby will have brown hair because brown hair is dominant. But if the baby gets two blonde genes then they will have blonde hair. This can be highly unlikely because there is no way to tell which genes the baby will get but it's still possible. Even if a set of parents are brown haired, it is entirely possible for this child to have blonde hair in infancy. It is common for babies to be "born tow haired" and the hair gradually to darken througout his babyhood. It is one peculiarity of genetics concerning a dominate and a recessive gene concerning hair. The presence of blonde hair on a child can indicate that the color is temporary if both parents are brown haired. While the child might have an almost white hair color during infancy, in such cases as this, by puberty the child usually has the color of his parent's hair. This anomoly is also observed in children with "red" hair. There is a recessive gene which gives the child red hair in infancy, but the hair color fades to brown by puberty.


Can two red-haired parents have a brown-haired child?

no!! never The above answer is incorrect--the red-headed gene is recessive--just because brown hair is dominant does not mean that those brown-heads don't carry the gene mutation for red hair! Research on this question suggests that freckled skin on non-red-heads may be a sign that the recessive gene for red hair is present.


Is it possible for 2 curly-haired parents to have a straight-hair child Explain?

yes because it might be in your generations genes\traits before.I'm curly haired but none of my parents have curly hair : )


If two blande haired people have a baby is it possible that the baby would have dark brown hair?

probably not, considering there going to have that dominant gene but if they have grandparents for relatives with dark brown hair it is possible. Its like when two brown eyed people have a blue eyes baby its happenedd.hope i helped :)
