    The woman's genotype is Cc (she's heterozygous)

    The man's genotype is cc (he's homozygous)

    If you make a punnet square it'll look like this (I hope it works out)

    C c

    c Cc cc

    c Cc cc

    Since curly hair (C) is dominant, any genotype with a capital C will have curly hair. This means 2/4 or 50% of children will have curly hair
