1) B- brown; b- red hair
Having brown hair is a dominant trait while red hair is recessive.
If the parents had a red-haired child it means they were carriers of the red hair trait, so their genotype is Bb
2)Getting their genotypes together would result in the possibilities that you see at the image below.
1/4 = 25% BB - brown
2/4 = 50% Bb brown but carrier
1/4 = 25% bb red hair
Answer: 25%
3) The genotype of the child, as i said before would be bb. By having both alleles being recessive the child will show red-hair. If it was any other genotype( BB or Bb), the child would have brown hair, like their parents.
