What did it mean to people like Madame Cama and to the soldiers involved in the mutiny of 1915 in Singapore, to be South Asian and revolutionary at the same time?

The allele for freckles (F) is dominant over the allele for no freckles

(f). The allele for brown hair (B) is dominant over the allele for red

hair (b). These two genes are closely linked on the same

chromosome.

If Ron (who comes from a pure-breeding population of

red-haired and freckled people) mates with Hermione (who has

brown hair and no freckles, but whose mother had red hair), what’s

the probability that their first child will have brown hair and freckles?

**The answer is 1/2, but I don't understand why.
