The genetics of eye color are more complex than previously thought. Almost any parent-child combination of eye colors can occur.

Can a green eyed man and brown eyed woman have a green eyed daughter?

Yes. Blue eyes are a recessive genetic trait, which means that a brown- or green-eyed person can still carry a gene for blue eyes. In this case, the blue-eyed gene is recessive, or subordinate, to the green- or brown-eyed gene. To be blue-eyed, an individual must have a recessive blue-eyed gene from both its mother and father.


If father and mother both have blue eyes is it possible to have a baby with brown eyes?

There is a chance the baby will have blue eyes but only 1:3 chance. You carry 2 blue eye genes. If he carry's 2 brown genes then all your baby's will have brown eyes. But, if he carry's 1 brown gene and 1 blue gene then the chances of blue:brown eyes are 1:3. Hope this helps :)


A person w green eyes and a person w brown eyes what color will the child have?

50% BROWN0% GREEN50% BLUEThe brown gene is dominant but if it also carries a recessive blue gene then they can have a blue eyes babyAnswerSince brown is a dominant gene and blue is the recessive gene, the child will usually have brown eyes. My father had brown eyes and my mother had blue eyes. They had three children: two brown eyes and me a blue green or as some call it grey eyed child. Then my brown eyed sister had a child with a blue eyed man and their son had blue eyes. So you really need to check to see if the brown eyed person has a brown or blue eyed parents. If one parent has blue eyes then yes it would be possible to have a blue eyed child. So the answer may lie with the Grandparents of the brown eyed person having the child. Check to see if one has blue eyes. Hope this wasn't to confusing.You can definitly can have green eyes when one parent has blue eyes and the other has brown. My Mother has brown eyes and my Father has blue eyes and i have green eyes and my twin sister has green eyes and he is definity our father. My brother has blue eyes though.


Can a blue eyed mom and a brown eyed dad have a hazel eyed baby?

Since things like eye color are genetic, they can be passed down from generation to generation and even skip generations. My wife has green eyes, I have brown and our three children's eyes are all different to varing degrees. Yes they are all mine! Eye color changes in babies too. All three of mine had grey eyes when they were born and then turned light blue and changed again as they got older. One child has brown, one has hazel and one has green. I have friends where one parent has blue and the other brown and their children have hazel.


What eye colors are dominant and which are recessive?

Brown eye color is dominant, while blue, green, and hazel eye colors are recessive. This means that brown eyes are more likely to be expressed if an individual inherits one brown-eyed allele and one allele for a different eye color.

Can to brown eye mom and dad have a kid with blue eyes?

Yes. If the mom and dad both have one recessive gene for blue eyes, there is a 25% chance that the child will have blue eyes. Since the blue eyed gene is hidden when the brown eyed gene is present, the parents will appear to have brown eyes even if they still contain the gene.


Can green eyed mom and blue eyed dad have brown eyed baby?

yes, but only if someone in either family had brown eyes because some inherited traits skip generations.

Can a blue eyed dad and a grey eyed mom make a brown eyed baby?

both of my grandparents had blue eyes, but my mom has brown eyes. and my dad has blue eyes, but my eyes are green. anything is possible. plus, science and genes aren't perfect. nobody can say exactly how a person is going to look just based on parents. you have to consider your grandparents, great grandparents, great great grandparents, and so on. ALL of your ancestors have played a role in your genes.


Can a blue eyed mom and dad have a brown eyed baby?

Yes, it is possible for a blue-eyed mother and father to have a brown-eyed baby. Eye color is a complex trait influenced by multiple genes, so offspring can inherit a combination of eye colors from their parents. Brown eyes are a dominant trait, so if both parents carry a recessive gene for brown eyes, their child could have brown eyes.


Can a brown eyed mom and a blue eyed father have a green eyed child its not that I'm bothered call me crazy?
