If either parent has a green-eyed relative, the chances of having a green-eyed child are increased. Also, some combinations of blue and brown eye alleles result in a mixture of the two colors, which can appear green.

Yes, if both of the individuals are heterozygous for eye color. In that particular case (using a punnet squares), there is a 25% probability. However, in a reality the probabilities are greatly altered by a wide range of factors.

One view: That all depends on if either of your parents have blue eyes. Brown eyes typically dominate, so your child will most likely have brown eyes.

Another View: Studies have shown recently that eye color is more complex than originally thought. It's not as simple as brown is dominant and blue is recessive. For example, I have green eyes and my husband has hazel (they look mostly blue), we have two children with sky blue eyes and one with brown.

I'm sure it's possible depending on their family tree.

Mainly your eye color comes from the paternal grandfather.

So if the blue eyed man has a grandfather with brown eyes then yes.

That could be wrong though because my paternal grandfather has blue eyes and my eyes are hazel.

A person w green eyes and a person w brown eyes what color will the child have?

50% BROWN0% GREEN50% BLUEThe brown gene is dominant but if it also carries a recessive blue gene then they can have a blue eyes babyAnswerSince brown is a dominant gene and blue is the recessive gene, the child will usually have brown eyes. My father had brown eyes and my mother had blue eyes. They had three children: two brown eyes and me a blue green or as some call it grey eyed child. Then my brown eyed sister had a child with a blue eyed man and their son had blue eyes. So you really need to check to see if the brown eyed person has a brown or blue eyed parents. If one parent has blue eyes then yes it would be possible to have a blue eyed child. So the answer may lie with the Grandparents of the brown eyed person having the child. Check to see if one has blue eyes. Hope this wasn't to confusing.You can definitly can have green eyes when one parent has blue eyes and the other has brown. My Mother has brown eyes and my Father has blue eyes and i have green eyes and my twin sister has green eyes and he is definity our father. My brother has blue eyes though.


Can a green eyed man and brown eyed woman have a green eyed daughter?

Yes. Blue eyes are a recessive genetic trait, which means that a brown- or green-eyed person can still carry a gene for blue eyes. In this case, the blue-eyed gene is recessive, or subordinate, to the green- or brown-eyed gene. To be blue-eyed, an individual must have a recessive blue-eyed gene from both its mother and father.

Can a blue eyed man and green eyed woman have a brown eyed child?

Yes, but: eye color is not a single trait with brown eyes being dominant over blue eyes. There are at least 8 genes that influence eye color. It is the amount of melanin inside special cells of the iris that give the color of eyes. Caucasian children are usually born with blue eyes but eventually the eye color changes. The case here with a green eyed man in a brown eyed woman, the child would not have truly blue eyes but would have a slight shading of blue. It is thought that all blue-eyed people are related and have a common ancestor somewhere between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago.


Eye color can a child have blue eyes from brown and green eyed parents?

yes, people with brown eyes can carry the blue eye gene, so two brown-or-green-eyed people who both carry the blue eye gene have a 25% chance chance of a blue eyed child (with each birth).

Can a green eyed woman and a brown eyed man have a blue eyed boy?

you cannot have a blue eyed boy. unless there is someone in your family that has blue eyes. the brown and green would be either a recessive or dominent trait. traits don't mix together to create different things. like brown and green. brown and green don't even mix to make blue


Can a brown eyed man and a brown eyed woman have a blue eyed child?

Brown unless the mothers parent has blue eyes. Some cases are very different. It really depends on how many children the parents have or are planning to have. Most of the children will have brown eyes in this case. 1 out of 4 will have either blue or a green pigment. If the parent has only 1-3 children it is highly likey that their eyes will be brown instead of blue/green. This is not 100% that any of the children will have blue/green even if there were 8 children. It depends on how the gene "deals the hand of cards" to each individual child. Its more like a 65-75% chance that 1 out of 4 will have a blue/green eye color. If lucky the first child could very well have blue/green eyes, but the possibility is very slim.
