Your mom eyes are brown and your dad's eyesv are gray and your brothers eyes are brown and your other brothers eyes are blue and you have green eyes why is that?

Brown eye color is dominant. Since the grandparents have blue eyes, which is recessive to brown, the parents with brown eyes can be carrying the blue eye color but the blue is not expressed. If both parents are carrying the blue eyed gene, the chances that a child would have blue eyes is 1 in 4. Yes, it is possible.


What is the primary light absorbing pigment found in plants?

The chlorophyll absorbs most of the colors in the color spectrum, and reflects only green and yellow wavelengths. This is why we see leaves as green or yellow- because these colors are reflected into our eyes.


Do you carry the blue eye trait if you have hazel eyes?

Depends, but probably yes. Green eyes and blue eyes are caused by the same gene. Hazel is green color mixed with brown color. So someone with hazel eyes often has a green eyes with brown coloring mixed in.


Do cows see in colors?

Neither. They can see in colour, but only in blues, greens and yellows. They cannot see pink, red, purple or brown hues because they do not have the red receptor in their eyes, only blue and yellow. Cattle are most attuned to yellowish green and bluish-purple hues, as well as sharp contrasts that go from light to dark, like intense shadows.


Do blue and green eyes can make brown?

No. Blue eyes come from a recessive gene from each parent. The child must of 2 recessive gene pairs to have blue eyes (which is actually the lack of eye pigment). So a brown eyed parent and a green eyed parent may have a blue eyed child if both pass on a recessive blue eye gene, but if just one dominant brown or green eyed gene is passed along it will trump the recessive blue eyed gene and the child will have brown or green eyes.

Do the colors purple and blue match?

Without seeing the colors it is hard to say for sure. Colors have so many hues. Generally though brown goes well with green, purple, and blue. But, green and blue are hard colors together. But sometimes colors can surprising. I would recommend going to a craft store like Michael's or JoAnn's and buy a color wheel. They only cost a few dollars but give you an easy guide to what colors go well together.
