http://museum.thetech.org/ugenetics/eyeCalc/eyecalculator.html If you go to that website it has explanations on how eye color is determined or inherited. You can also get precentages of a baby's possible eye color by following the instructions for the eye color calculator.
The genetics of eye color are more complicated than previously thought. Color is determined by multiple genes. The genetics of eye color are so complex, that almost any parent-child combination of eye colors can occur.
The amount of melanin gives color to your eyes, skin, and hair. I think that's the question you're asking but, just in case, I'll answer the only other question I think you might be asking. A punnet square is a table that can determine the percentage of the offspring's eye color being blue, green, brown, and possibly other colors that I am not aware of. It all depends on the genes of the grandparents. However, even if the percentage of a certain eye color is zero percent, it doesn't mean it is impossible for the offspring to have that color eyes.
Sorry if you were expecting more details for melanin or if I said too much or too little on punnet squares. I could just keep talking forever. :P

It depends on the eye color genes of the parents. If the mother has a recessive eye color, such as blue, and the father has a dominant eye color, like brown, then the baby will have the father's eye color because brown is dominant over blue. If both parents have recessive colors, blue, only then will the baby be born with blue eyes. Only if both parents have the recessive gene.
Blue+Blue=Blue
Brown+Brown=Brown
Brown+Blue=Brown
It all just depends on the parents.
The genes of your parents will determine your eye color.
A combination of the genetics from each parent determines the eye colour of their offspring. Therefore both parents determine eye colour.
Both parents pass on alleles that determine eye colour to their offspring. It doesn't depend on one or another parent specifically.
There are more that one set of chromosomes that determine eye color.
neither they are both ressessive colors in the color genes brown is th most dominant color wise
Green eyes and blue eyes are caused by the same gene. The amount of melanin in the eye determines the eyes color.
The genetics of eye color are more complex than previously thought. Almost any parent-child combination of eye colors can occur.
Genes determine what gender you are, what hair color you have, what eye color, how tall you are... For more infornmation on how genes were discovered Google Gregor Mendel.
Originally, everyone had brown eyes. The brown was caused by melanin in the eye. Melanin in the eye protects the eye from the damaging effects of ultraviolet light.
iris
the amount of light around you
The amount of melanin in the eye determines the eyes color.
The iris receives light and the cone cells located within the cornia determine color
Genes are what determine the color of a persons eyes. However, the concentration of the melanin in the iris of the eye helps determine the pigmentation of the color.
The amount of melanin in the eye determines the eyes color.
Either. Blue eyes and green eyes are caused by the same gene. The amount of melanin in the eye determines the eyes color.
Mermaids do not exist, so their eye color can be anything the author of the story determines it should be.
neither they are both ressessive colors in the color genes brown is th most dominant color wise
The temperature determines the color of the star!:)
Melanin determines your hair color.
Neither. Blue green and blue eyes are caused by the same gene. The amount of melanin in the eye determines eye color.
