Yes. All it takes is a small amount of Black-African ancestry to be Black. Black genes are dominant and that is why the saying "1 drop" is common. A person who is 3/4ths White will often still look Black, however someone who is 3/4ths black and 1/4th White will often look 100% African.

If eyes color of mother is blue and eyes color of father is black how did the child get black color?
Black eye color is a recessive trait meaning that for someone to have it both the mother and father would have to pass off the gene for Black eyes. Since the dominant gene always prevails over the recessive and one of the parents had blue eyes, this means that the parent with black eyes had both recessive genes for black eyes and therefor passed on the recessive gene. The other parent with the Blue eyes must have both genes blue and black, but since blue is considered to be dominant over black the blue, they have blue eyes, but passed on the recessive black eye gene. B - Blue Eye Gene (Dominant) b - Black Eye Gene (recessive) Mother - Bb (Blue Eyes) Father - bb (Black Eyes) Child - bb (Black Eyes)
