genetically speaking its not possible at all since black is the dominant gene and his parents are blondes which are recessive but we’re reading fiction so all science goes out the window
But ml is his uncle so genetically speaking maybe he got the grandparents genes? there are cases where a child is more similar to grandparents, uncles or even great grandparents
The alleles of genes can sometimes skip some generations, so it's not totally impossible for him to have his grandparents/or even further, hair colour (let's assume it was black) and not his parent's.
this topic got me looking into punnet squares again so some more science i found out it IS possible only because there are such things as hidden alleles apparently, which on a super rare chance, combine and thus the parents will have a dark haired child so luc gets off on this one.
but yeah this is a super rare chance that like most people will never see since blonde is the recessive allele meaning the parents shouldn’t be carrying any allele for dark hair bc if they did it would dominate the blonde but it seems here we tread the more complicated territory of hidden alleles (7th grade science never talks about the cool stuff)
... I came here to relax my brain but instead I get science... I thought I left this life behind... Orz
All this allele talk got me thinking back to my highschool days and the dreaded genetics Also, it was nice to know I was not the only idiot thinking about how that is possible even if it's fiction
I’m getting flashbacks of the lessons I cried over on my highschool days (i hate science smh)
lol, I had my suspicions that the father would also be blonde, and I turned out to be correct…how that happened if someone in the replies had alr answered that question, still doesn’t make it any less questionable
how does Luc have black hair when both his parents had blonde hair ┑(￣Д ￣)┍ are they dying his hair black?? Strong family genes???
