When you have two alleles (coding sequences) from genes that are at odds with each other, one version will override the other. When dealing with eye color, brown overrides blue.

Is brown eyes dominate or is blue?

How do you get brown eyes from blue eyed parents?
if you go back to the beginning of your family tree, maybe a family member had brown eyes brown eyes is a dominate trait and blue eyes is a recessive trait, even tho they may both show the recessive trait they may both poses the brown eyes dominate trait and pass it onto you and you will show it. as the name implies you are more likely to show the dominate trait (75% chance dominate and 255 chance recessive). interestingly enough this means that you do have the recessive blue eye trait but you do not show it.
Is is possible for two brown eyed parents to have a blue eyed baby if three of the grandparents are brown eyed?
Yes, because brown eyes are the dominate trait, blue eyes might be the "hidden trait." one of the grandparents have the hidden trait, they passed it onto the parent, and the the blue eyes trait became dominate in the child.
Your husband is blond blue eyes and you are meduim brown skin with brown eyes What is your baby eye color?
It would all depend on which gene (brown eyes and blue eyes) is dominate and which is recessive. The baby's eye color could be either one, or the baby's eye color could be green depending if the wife or husband's parents' eye color. Basically it all depends on which eye color is dominate to the other
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!
What color will a baby's eyes be if the mom and dad both have brown eyes?
Most likely brown, brown is a dominate gene. So probably brown eyes - but you never know :) brown eye color is a dominant trait, so most likely brown but it is a polygenic trait, which means more than one gene is responsible for determining eye color.
What are the two recessive alleles for blue eyes?
Blue eyed people have two recessives for blue. It is expressed as bb. A person with brown eyes is BB. Brown is dominate over blue. However a person with brown eyes can carry the gene for blue and they would be called Bb.
What color eye and hair will a baby have if the mother has red hair and brown eyes and the father has blond hair and blue eyes?
I Would Say Red Hair With Brown Eyes,. Brown Eyes Dominate Over Blue Eyes And Red Over Blonde, I Could Be Wrong, But Im Learning That In Science At The Moment So That's My Guess.
What are the eye color percentages?
I would probably have to say predominately brown. Only because, while eye color does differ, especially in white people and other lighter-skinned races, however black people and other minorities have a very dominate brown color. Almost all black, brown, or Beige skin colors will result in black hair and brown eyes, its just how it is. While the Color of people with lighter skin will usually differ, people with darker skin are usually dominate brown, not always but usually.
If a wife brown eyes and your husband have blue eyes what color will your kids get?

Can a man who has brown eyes and whose both parents have brown eyes produce a blue eyed child if his wife has blue eyes?
yes, if the man with brown eyes had a recessive blue trait. his parents would have to both have the recessive trait as well. the parents with dominate brown (B) with recessive blue (b) eye color traits would create a chart of possible outcomes for their child: B b B bb Bb b Bb bb if the man came out Bb (dominate brown with recessive blue) and had a wife with bb (the only way to have blue eyes is to have two recessive blue traits because if a pair of traits has a Brown then the brwn color will automatically dominate over the blue) the man and the wife will make an eye color chart like this: B b b Bb bb b Bb bb there is a 50/50 chance the child will have blue eyes. if the child has the bb trait then it will have blue eyes.
