Eye color is polygenic character i.e. it is controlled by at least 4 pair of genes. Such genes have additive effect and each dominant gene adds a dose of color to eye . blue eye color is produced by all recessive genes while dark black color by all dominant genes .

∙ 13y agoThe genes inherited from both parents control eye and hair color.
The colors may not have shown up in the parents' generation but may have appeared in earlier generations. Recessive genes can be inherited through many generations before meeting up with a duplicate gene and finally showing up in the new generation. For instance, a blue eyed blonde can appear in a family of brown eyed brunettes.

What structure controls the amount of light that gets in the eye?
Iris controls the amount of light entering into the eye.
What controls the light going into eye?
The pupil controls the amount of light that enters the eye.
What structure is the visible colored part of the eye that controls pupil dilation?
The visible, colored part of the eye that controls pupil dilation is the iris.
What controls automatic eye movements?
it is the pupil
What part is responsible for controlling the size of the pupil?
The size of the eye's pupil controls that amount of light entering the eye and then falling on the retina. As a consequence the diameter of the pupil also controls the depth of field (how much in front of you is in focus) of the image. In bright light the pupil is small and the depth of field is wide. in dark condition the diameter of the pupil opens up and more light enters the eye but the depth of field is narrow.
What is the function of the iris in the human eye?
The iris controls the size of the pupil. Which in turn, controls the amount of light entering the eye.
Is it possible to break your pupil?
Eye trauma can damage the muscle that controls pupil size.
What is the circular opening of the eye which controls the amount of light that enters the eye?
The pupil. However, as it is a hole, i.e. an absence of anything it seems odd to say it controls anything. The iris controls the size of the pupil and therefore the amount of light entering.
What structure controls the amount of light that gets in the eye?
Iris controls the amount of light entering into the eye.
What is the difference between the cornea and iris?
The cornea is the surface of the eye. It is completely transparent, as all light that enters the eye must pass through the cornea. If you look at a person's eye from the side, you will see some clear material covering the front of the eyeball. That is the cornea. The iris is what controls the amount of light let into the eye. It is what gives the eye its colour, and it is what actually controls the size of the pupil.
What is the name of the muscle in your eye that changes the size of your pupil?
it squishes it until it becomes so small that the naked eye can't see it. (he he he) (naked)
What controls your eye color?
The part of your eye that controlls your eye colour is called: The Iris
What controls the light going into eye?
The pupil controls the amount of light that enters the eye.
What muscle controls the size of pupil?
IrisThe circular muscles of the iris expand and contract the pupil. The size of the pupil determines how much light will enter the eye, so the iris effectively controls the amount of light that is passed to the retina. The iris is also responsible for eye color (blue, brown, green, hazel). See the related link below for more information on the iris.
What structure is the visible colored part of the eye that controls pupil dilation?
The visible, colored part of the eye that controls pupil dilation is the iris.
What does the superior rectus muscle in the eye do?
Controls the vertical motion of the eye. DL
What controls automatic eye movements?
it is the pupil
