    Answer: 50% will have short hair

    Explanation: The allele for a heterozygous dominant short hair is (Ss) and the allele for the homozygous long hair which is the recessive trait is (ss).

    If we cross these alleles the results will be.

    s s

    S Ss Ss

    s ss ss

    The results will have 50% Heterozygous dominant short hair and 50% Homozygous recessive long hair.
