phenotypic ratio: 1 straight: 2 wavy: 1 curly

ANSWER: Curly= 25%, Straight 25%

The people will most likely to have a curly haired baby. This is because the child will have chromosomes inherited from its both parents. Chromosomes have DNA and genes are the functional segments of DNA. Since the mother and father both have wavy hair then the child will also have wavy hair. But if it was a different case, for example, the mother has wavy hair while the father has straight hair, then the child might have curly hair or straight hair. Most of all, the child's hair will be determined by the gene it inherits from its parents.

Answer:

Curly haired baby
