Answer:

i have trusted my best to answer

Explanation:

Edit

The upper mantle of Earth is a very thick layer of rock inside the planet, which begins just beneath the crust (at about 10 km (6.2 mi) under the oceans and about 35 km (22 mi) under the continents) and ends at the top of the lower mantle at 670 km (420 mi). Temperatures range from approximately 200 °C (392 °F) at the upper boundary with the crust to approximately 900 °C (1,650 °F) at the boundary with the lower mantle. Upper mantle material which has come up onto the surface is made up of about 55% olivine, 35% pyroxene and 5 to 10% of calcium oxide and aluminum oxide minerals such as plagioclase, spinel, or garnet, depending upon depth.

Let "r" stand for the recessive red hair trait. A person with red hair must have a genotype of "rr" ( one from each parent) in order to have red hair( red hair being the phenotype).

Let "B" stand for brown hair and "b" stand for not brown hair. A person with brown hair can have a genotype of "Bb" or "BB" and have a phenotype of Brown hair. This is becasue brown hair "B" is the dominant trait.
