Hair color?

Question

If a girl has natural black hair, a guy has blonde hair, what hair color would the child have?

so let me add a bit more... my parents both have black hair (both asian as am i). i just knew some ppl w/ one parent having black hair, the other blonde and had a red haired kid. is that really even possible.

Answer 1

Is black hair homozygous? Or, is it heterozygous (like brown hair)? If it's the latter case, then the child could potentially have blonde hair. It would be 50-50.

Answer 2

It depends on the genes controlling the parents hair color. The blond would be most likely homozygous recessive (bb) but you would have to know whether the black haired parent is homozygous dominant(BB) or heterozygous(Bb). If black hair is homozygous then the outcome will be heterozygous black.
If heterozygous black then the outcome will be 1/4 homo. black, 1/2 hetero. black, and 1/4 homo. blond.... so it will be 3/4 likely black and 1/4 likely blond.

:P
Sr. puerco strikes again!!!

Answer 3

black hair is dominant and blonde is a recessive trait so maybe ur kid will have dishwater blonde which is blonde and brown together.

Answer 4

it depends....

if the girl gives black hair color genes and the guy gives brown the offspring's hair color is black...

if she gives brown h c genes and the he gives brown h c genes, the offsprings hc is brown
