Eumelanin in the hair provides which colors?

Red / Blonde
Brown / Black
White / Grey
Blue / Green

The correct answer is: Brown / Black

Eumelanin is a type of melanin found in the hair that is responsible for darker colors such as brown and black. Red and blonde hair is a result of another type of melanin called pheomelanin. White or grey hair is caused by a decrease in melanin production and has nothing to do with eumelanin. Blue and green colors are unnatural for hair and are typically achieved through hair dyes or bleaching. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it mentions the colors that are commonly associated with eumelanin in hair.
