Answer:

Kyree b will have waves with a gwnotyoe; We

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding the possession or not of waves in humans. Allele W is for possession of waves while allele w is for no waves.

Heterozygous means contains two different alleles of the same gene. In this case, an heterozygous individual will possess allele W and w together i.e. Ww. Since the allele W is dominant over allele w i.e. can mask Its phenotypic expression, an heterozygous offspring (Ww) will phenotypically possess waves.
