If a man had black hair and blue eyes and the woman had blond hair blue eyes can the child come out with brown eyes blond hair if the grandmother had brown eyes?
Blue eyes are a recessive trait. If at least one of the parents had a blue/hazel eyes with a mixture of blue and brown, then the couple's offspring could have brown eyes. If both parents had solid blue eyes, neither would have the dominant brown gene to pass to the baby, and it would have blue eyes, regardless of the grandmother's eye color.
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.
What is the genotype of the offspring that do not share the parents phenotype?
Genotype is the coded for traitPhenotype is the visible characteristicSo in the case where both parents had heterozygous dominant Brown eyes (Bb - big B for brown, dominant gene; little b for blue recessive gene); it is possible for the child to have blue eyes, by being homozygous recessive (bb).However this is an educated guess, as your question does not make sense.
Which is the dominant gene father has dark brown eyes mother has blue eyes?
Sure you don't mean heterozygous dominant? If you don't there would be no blue eyed offspring. Let's assume you meant heterozygous dominant.B = brownbl = blueBbl X Bbl1/4 of the offspring would have blue eyes, 25%.
Can a baby have blue eyes if both parents have brown eyes and grandparents on one side have blue and brown and on the other side have green and brown?
yes, although the likely hood chance is that it will have brown eyes as both of the parents do.
Brown eyes are dominant Cross a homozygous brown with a recessive blue What color eyes will the offspring have?
all brown the chances of brown eyes both parents have to have blueeyes for blue eyes to become dominant but its still possible no matter what for blue or brown
Explain through genetics why a white male cat and a black female can produce 4 black offspring?
I can't really explain in genetics, but I can in similarity. A colour of a Cat's fur can be like the colour of our eyes in a way. If one of your parents has brown eyes (with no trace of blue eyes) and the other had blue eyes, you would get brown eyes. So, the white Cat is the blue eyes and the black Cat is the brown eyes. Do you get that?
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.
How can this be possible where the couple has brown eyes and the child can have blue eyes?
Blue eyes are a recessive trait, while brown eyes are dominant. If both parents are heterozygous for brown eyes, it means they both carry the recessive trait for blue eyes, and so there is a 25% chance their offspring will be blue-eyed.

Blue eyes are a recessive trait. If at least one of the parents had a blue/hazel eyes with a mixture of blue and brown, then the couple's offspring could have brown eyes. If both parents had solid blue eyes, neither would have the dominant brown gene to pass to the baby, and it would have blue eyes, regardless of the grandmother's eye color.
Can two blue eyed people have a brown eyed offspring?
Technically no. If two people have blue eyes then both copies of their eye colour gene are blue. If either of them had a brown eye gene they would of had brown eyes as its the dominant gene, so when they produce an offspring neither of them have a brown eye gene to pass down. Hence the offspring will also have both genes blue, resulting in blue eyes.
Are there more brown eyed people in the world than blue eyed?
NO. People with blue eyes do NOT have the brown eyed gene, if they did they themselves would have developed brown eyes instead of their blue as it is dominant. So two blue eyed parents can only pass the blue gene to their offspring.
If Ted has blue eyes and Mary is heterozygous what is the chance that their offspring will have brown eyes?
Assuming that you mean heterozygous for blue/brown eyes, 50%.
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.
Green eye cat and blue eye cat what is the offspring?
one of their parents had blue eyes and the other parents had green eyes.....i think
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 is the genotype of the offspring that do not share the parents phenotype?
Genotype is the coded for traitPhenotype is the visible characteristicSo in the case where both parents had heterozygous dominant Brown eyes (Bb - big B for brown, dominant gene; little b for blue recessive gene); it is possible for the child to have blue eyes, by being homozygous recessive (bb).However this is an educated guess, as your question does not make sense.
