Can a blue eyed man and a brown eyed woman make a blue eyed kid?

Theoretically, a blue eyed man and a blue eyed woman cannot produce a brown-eyed child. The reason is that neither parent carries the brown-eyed gene. If the father or mother did carry the brown-eyed gene, the eyes/irises of that parent would be brown. The gene for brown is dominant over the gene for blue. However, two brown eyed parents can produce a blue eyed child. In that case, each parent with brown eyes must carry the gene for blue - the parents' eyes are brown because the brown gene is dominant over the blue gene. However, if the child inherits a blue gene from both brown eyed parents, the result will be blue eyes although both parents have brown eyes. In the case of one parent with brown eyes and one parent with blue eyes, there is a possibility that the parent with brown eyes possesses the non-dominant blue gene. If the child inherits the blue gene from that brown eyed parent, the child's eyes will be blue since the gene from the other parent with blue eyes will be blue. There is a condition known as heterochromia iridis where one eye is brown and one eye is blue. This condition is usually pathological on a neurogenic or inflammatory basis with the abnormality usually being in the lighter/ blue eye. Acquired heterochromia iridis that develops in an adult may suggest a melanoma of the iris in the brown eye.


Why do some people have blue eyes and some have brown?

it depends on the parents. blue eyes are recessive, and brown are dominant. therefore, if any of your parent is brown eyed, and the other blue eyed, then the brown will dominate over the blue. it all depends on your genes!


How does a child of a brown eyed and blue eyed parents have blue eyes?

Brown eye gene = B Blue eye gene = b Each person has two copies of the eye color gene in their genome, one inherited from each parent. Now if both parents only carry the gene for brown eyes, BB and BB, then their child will receive one B from each parent, ending up as BB. The same works for blue eyes, if that's the only gene both parents carry, bb and bb. Each parents gives on b to the child, who ends up as bb. If you have one parent who only has the gene for brown eyes, BB, and one parent who only has the gene for blue eyes, bb, then all the children will have brown eyes. Example: One parent gives a B, the other gives a b. Bb = brown eyes. Here's why: When you have two alleles (coding sequences) from genes that are at odds with each other, one version will override the the other. When dealing with eye color, B always dominates b. But these children now carry the b gene in them, and could pass it down to their own children. Some of them, depending on the other parent, could end up with blue eyes. If one parent is Bb, and the other is bb, then each time they have a child, there is a 50% chance it will have blue eyes. Example: First parent is Bb, second parent is bb, then their children will end up as either Bb, bb, Bb, bb. If both parents carry the genes for brown eyes and blue eyes, then each time they have a child, there is a 25% chance it will have blue eyes. Example: First parent is Bb, second parent is Bb, then their children will end up as either BB, Bb, Bb, bb.


Is it possible to have a red haired baby with bule eyes if the parents both have brown hair and brown eyes?

In short from the info given, it could be possible. I wont go into the genetics of it and the probability of it. However if there was more info about the parents of each parent, then you could get an exact yes or no.


Can a parent with blue eyes and brown eyes produce a child with blue eyes?

The genetics of eye color are more complex than realized previously. Almost any parent-child combination of eye colors can occur.

Can 2 brown eyed parents produce a green eyed child?

Well, both of my parents had brown eyes. Out of 11 kids 3 had brown and the rest of us had blue.Come to think of it, the mailman and the milkman had blue eyes.


Can two brown eyes parents produce a blue eyes child?

I don't think two brown eyed parents produce a blue eyed child, but a brown eyed parent and a blue eyed parent can produce a child with blue eyes. Brown eyes are not always dominate.Two brown-eyed parents CAN produce a blue-eyed child if BOTH carry the recessive gene for blue eyes. Recessive means it can hide, but is still present and ready to be carried on to a future generation. Brown eyes ARE dominant. If you carry the gene for brown eyes, your eyes are brown. This does not mean you can't also carry the recessive gene for blue/green eyes.


What color would your eyes be if your parents have different eye color?

if your parents have different color eyes: if eyes are not brown, no brown gene lets say one green other brown. green parent may have green/blue gene. brown parent may have brown/green gene. your eyes might be blue. 1/4 chance of 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.

Could two blue-eyed parents have a brown-eyed child?

GeneticsYes, it's possible for a pair of blue-eyed parents to have a brown-eyed offspring. It all depends on each parent's genotype, and which trait comes from the dominant or recessive allele.

Can you have a black puppy if two chocolate labs mate?

No, the puppies will all be brown, unless there is at least one black parent, the genes that go to the puppy will make it brown, almost without fail.Another answer:It's a common misconception that Labradors breed true to the color of the parents. In fact, any color combination of Labrador Retriever parents can produce any color offspring...so yes, two chocolate labs can produce a black (or yellow) puppy.
