In genetics, widow's peak is typically represented as a dominant trait (W), while a straight hairline is recessive (w). If both parents are heterozygous (Ww), their offspring can be represented by a Punnett square, which shows the possible genotypes: WW, Ww, Ww, and ww. Only the ww genotype results in a straight hairline, which occurs in 1 out of 4 possibilities. Therefore, the probability that two heterozygous parents will have a child with a straight hairline is 25%.
