Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Red hair is a recessive trait, meaning it is only expressed when an individual possesses two copies of the recessive allele. The dominant allele for hair color is brown/black. Therefore, individuals with brown/black hair can still carry the recessive allele for red hair. Curly hair, facial dimples, and double-jointedness are not necessarily linked to a dominant or recessive allele.
