let the gene of red hair be 'X'
let the gene of black hair be 'Y'
Hence, the gene of mother's hair be 'X' and father's be 'Y'
Flowchart:
Father Mother
(Y) (X)

Child
(Z)
Therefore, the child will have black hair since it is ascendant will also contain the recessive red hair attribute but will not be expressed.
