CANT GET WRONG , ITS LIKE A WORK BANK BUT DONT KNOW WHAT ITS CALLED.In any family, the children may or may not look like their parents. They may or may not look like their siblings. That's because each one of us inherit half of our chromosomes from our mother and half from our father. What assortment of we get varies from child to child. Our chromosomes contain many genes, and each gene codes for a specific trait. The traits people see, like eye color hair color, or height, also depend on whether the gene is dominant or recessive. In this family, brown hair is dominant over red hair. It is very possible that these two parents could only have children with brown hair! It is also possible that their children all have red hair! Why? First, to inherit a recessive trait like red hair, you must have two genes for red hair color. Because one parent, the mother, has red hair we know the mother must have two genes for red hair. The father has brown hair. We know he must have at least one gene for brown hair but he also has one gene for red hair. What two genes will their children have? It's a matter of probability. Each child has a 100% chance of inheriting the red hair gene from their mother and a 50% chance of inheriting the red hair gene from dad. That means, all the children will have at least one gene for red hair!
