Hello, I just came across your question while searching Google for the reason for a brown spot in a blue eye. I have blue eyes myself, except for a single brown spot in the blue in my right eye. Here is what I found on the subject,

""Nearly all Caucasian infants have blue eyes. This is mainly due to the fact that there are very few "melancholics", or pigment cells, in the iris. And those melancholics that are present contain very little pigment. In black and brown races the iris stoma is more dense and the melancholics contain more pigment, giving rise to a blue-gray appearance.

In all races, the pigment cells multiply as the child grows but if the cells contain little to no pigment the eye will stay relatively blue. So, in reality, there are no REAL blue-eyed people, just those that failed to develop brown pigmented melancholics! Most of you with light-colored eyes have probably noticed a "spot" or two of brown on your eyes. These are clumps of melancholics that happen to contain more pigment. These may be called "nevi" or just plain "freckles". They are not unlike those spots on your skin that you call freckles; just a clump of more highly pigmented melancholics."

What eye color will be the child's eye color if the mom is green and the dads eye color is blue?

The green eye and the blue eye are the same gene, so is black and brown. The child's eyes would have to be green or blue because both parents onlt have blue genes. If both parents have brown eyes there is still a chance the child's eyes could come out blue, but only if one of the parents have a hidden blue gene. But is both parents have blue eyes this means all their genes are blue and the child will 100% have blue eyes.


Can to blue eyed parents have brown eyed children?

no they cannot because if you have blue eyes, your alleles are bb, and so... bb and bb have no B, and therefore, with no dominant gene, there cannot be a brown eyed child.


Can both parents with blue eyes have a child with brown eyes?

Not necessarily. A pair of blue-eyed parents may have a brown-eyed child. This is because there is more than one gene involved in eye-color determination. Please see the thorough explanation in the links.


Can a blue eyed male with both his parents having blue eyes marries a brown eyed female with her mother having blue eyes and her father having brown eyes could they have a brown eyed child?

Yes. Brown is dominant for eye color.


If red is the dominant hair color but the father has brown hair and the mother has red hair and the hair color of the father is dominant then what color will the hair of their child be?

It's very hard to answer this question as there are no details on what alleles the fathers or mothers DNA contains. The father has to have an allele for red hair for the child to have a chance of having it. Presuming that the father has a brown and red hair allele and the mother has the same it works out like this. Brown + Brown = Brown Brown + Red = Brown (Because it's dominant) Brown + Red (from other parents) = Brown (Because brown is dominant) Red + Red = Red The chances of brown therefore is 3:1 as you cannot be sure on what the child will receive.

What color eyes will the child have father has brown eyes mother has brown eyes?

Sort of. Your eye color is controlled by your genes, and your genes come from your parents BUT for instance; both brown eyed parents could carry a recesive blue gene and both could have passed it on to the child ... yes, the color came from the parents, but neither parent seems to have it.

Suppose that brown hair color is dominant over red hair color in humans Which of the statements is true?

If brown hair is dominant over red hair, then a person who is heterozygous for brown hair will have a brown hair phenotype. Red-haired offspring with two brown-haired parents are fairly common.


Can a black woman with-dark brown eyes an her boyfriend is white with-hazel green eyes-what color eyes would there bi-racial child have?

It depends on what type of eye color both parents have. You may have brown eyes, but you need to know what color eyes both of your parents have, and the same is true for him. Once you figure this out you can make a punnett square, which could help show the likeliness of the child's eye color. The square should show which color is dominate, and which color is recessive. For example: Both my parents have blue eyes. My father's parents have blue and brown. My mother's parents both have blue. As you can see the color blue appears most often, this suggests that the blue color gene is dominate while the brown is recessive. The likeliness of a child born to my parents being blue eyed is 3/4. Bb, BB, BB, bb Dominate genes (blue) are the capital letters and recessive genes (brown) are the lower case letters. Because the big "B" occurs most often it is the most likely to occur. Hope this helps...
