Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so there is four letters, 3D and 1d. The dominant allele for dark-colored hair is represented as the capital letter D. The recessive allele for light-colored hair is represented as the lowercase letter d. Think of each D and d as 25% so D+D+D= 75% and that leaves the 1d as 25%.

the punnet squares has all boxes showing either DD or Dd making the outcome of both dominate, which means dark-colored hair.
