Hoodmemes · Answer

curly hair and wavy hair are some what connect in the genetic pool

supie · Answer

since ruby's father has curly hair and the mom has straight hair ruby gets half of both of them and then her hair comes out to be wavy due to Incomplete dominance

guineverew · Answer

So the answer isn't that wavy is a combination of the two, I'm pretty sure it's because one or both parents hold the wavy hair gene but just don't express it on the outside

What would that be called?

supdude · Answer

The gene for curly hair has multiple alleles, and Ruby has the allele for wavy hair. . . C. Ruby inherited both alleles, which are incompletely dominant.
