Said bear contains the genotype Hh (representing the two alleles which had been inherited from its parents). The allele for curly hair is dominant (represented by H), making the allele for straight hair automatically recessive (represented by h). If the allele for curly hair is dominant (H), and the recessive allele for straight hair (h) is present, the dominant allele (H) automatically masks its presence. This being said, the bear will have curly hair, but will be a carrier for straight hair.
