Chromosome 19 has a blue/green gene. Chromosome 15 has a brown/blue gene. The genetics of eye color are more complex than realized previously, and more than one gene is involved in determining eye color.
No, brown eyes are more dominant than blue eyes genetically. Brown eye color is a dominant trait, while blue eye color is a recessive trait. This means that if a person has one gene for blue eyes and one gene for brown eyes, the brown eye gene will be expressed.
Brown eyes are a dominant trait in many humans, meaning that if one parent has brown eyes, their child is likely to inherit this trait.
A person with brown eyes can carry the blue eye allele because brown is a dominant trait, so they can have both blue and brown alleles in their genotype. However, a person with blue eyes cannot have a brown eye allele because blue eyes are a recessive trait, meaning they must have two copies of the blue allele in their genotype to express the trait.
A dominate trait is a trait that appears even if an organism has only one factor for the trait.
Althought the diabetes skipped many generations in my family, it was apparently a recessive trait because the newborn was diagnosed with the disease.
That the trait for blue eyes was recessive in both parents.
Blue eyes are a recessive trait that is passed down by the parents to the child through their genes.
The blue eyed boy needs the X and Y chromosome to be a boy, and since blue eyes is a recessive trait, it must receive the blue eyed gene from both the mother and the father.
Blue eyes is a recessive trait. Both parents could be blue gene carriers.
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.
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.
Not my answer
brown eyes because of the genetic trait
The gene for blue eyes is recessive.
Blue eyes are known to be a recessive genetic trait, or a trait that is not commonly found. Because your dad has blue eyes, it means that he also has the "blue eye" trait in his gene. An offspring (you in this case) can get that same "blue eye" trait as well as traits from your mom. Although it is more common to get other dominant trait, such as brown, you got blue. I wouldn't say it is rare but it is definitely uncommon.
No, brown eyes are more dominant than blue eyes genetically. Brown eye color is a dominant trait, while blue eye color is a recessive trait. This means that if a person has one gene for blue eyes and one gene for brown eyes, the brown eye gene will be expressed.
Huskies can have blue eyes due to a genetic trait called heterochromia, which causes variations in eye color. This trait is common in huskies and is a result of their genetic makeup.
