    Genetics
    Hi I am doing a science project on genetics and I need these questions answered. Im in 6th grade
    How do genes get passed down?
    Can parents with dark hair such as brown have a child with light haigh like blonde?
    What are dominate and recessive traits?
    Are any two genes the same?
    I already know some stuff but I would just like a greater understanding. Please answer ASAP!

    A live resource? That's not really a meaningful term. All the research you do will give you information that is from mostly live sources, the people who wrote them. And the answers to the questions you asked here were actually discovered long ago.
    For traits, just look up 'genetic traits.' The word is dominant, not dominate. (Yes, two browns can have a blonde, IF they both have genes for blonde hiding under their brown.)
