Answer:

Recessive

Step-by-step explanation:

Straight hair is said to be "recessive. If one parent gives you the gene for curly hair and the other gives you the gene for straight hair, you will be born with curly hair. The curly gene outweighs the straight gene in dominance. Only one gene from each parent will be passed down to the progeny.
