If a child's mother has blonde hair and blue eyes, and the father has black hair and brown eyes, how likely is it that the child would have blonde

hair and blue eyes?

I've head that the dark gene is the dominant gene?

I’ve heard that too, but apparently that’s not really true. This is interesting if you’re that interested...about dominant and recessive traits.

It seems scientists got so excited about becoming able to play with genes, they jumped the gun.

They should be required to go back and make amends to those couples whose marriages were ruined because over-eager scientists initially said that baby could not belong to that father and mother.
