Answer 2

There is 100% chance that offspring will have straight hair.

Explanation:

1) For curly hair genotype will be hh and for straight hair genotype will be Hh or HH

2) Genotype of mother will be HH as it is homozygous dominant and genotype of father will be Hh as it is heterozygous.

3) If we crossed HH× Hh , all the offspring have two genotype - HH and Hh

4) HH and Hh genotypes denote for straight hair.so all the offspring will have a straight hair.
