    Father Homozygous Straight Hair so the genotype will be HsHs

    Mother Homozygous curly Hair so the genotype will be HCHC

                                  HS                                  HS

    Gamates 

                                  Father's gamete             Father's gamete

                                                              

    HC

    Mother's gamete.  HSHC                             HSHC

    HC

    Mother's gamete. HSHC                              HSHC

    8. Ratio of genotype is 4 (wavy):0 (Straight):0(wavy)

    *HSHC heterozygous condition is wavy

    9. NIL

    10. All 4

    11. NIL

    12. Phenotype is 4 (wavy):0 (Straight):0(wavy)

    13. NIL

    SS x ss => Ss Ss Ss Ss

    Phenotypes:  Straight hair

    Genotypes:  Ss

    Genotypic ratio:  100% Ss

    Phenotypic ratio:  100% straight hair

    Probability of recessive trait:  0%
