What is co - dominance?
Incomplete dominance is when both the dominant gene and recessive gene are present in an organism's phenotype. For example, since brown eyes are dominant and blue eyes are recessive in humans, a person who has incomplete dominance of eye color would have gray or green eyes; a mixture of both brown and blue. Codominance is when two dominant alleles are present at the same time. These two terms are not the same!
Is true that you can have a baby with blue eyes if both of the parents have browns eyes?
It is very unlikely, and I would say no but I do not know for sure. I do know that a baby is born with blue eyes if both parents have blue eyes, and that brown eyes are a dominant gene, soo.. curiously enough, blue is a rare eye colour. The order of common to rare: brown Hazel blue and blue-gray green violet (yes it is possible, Elizabeth Taylor had violet eyes)
How does dominance apply to heredity?
If some gene is dominant it will always be more hereditary than a non-dominant gene. Like brown eyes, the brown eye gene is dominant so a couple with blue and brown eyes will have a child with brown eyes no matter what.
If eyes color of mother is blue and eyes color of father is black how did the child get black color?
Black eye color is a recessive trait meaning that for someone to have it both the mother and father would have to pass off the gene for Black eyes. Since the dominant gene always prevails over the recessive and one of the parents had blue eyes, this means that the parent with black eyes had both recessive genes for black eyes and therefor passed on the recessive gene. The other parent with the Blue eyes must have both genes blue and black, but since blue is considered to be dominant over black the blue, they have blue eyes, but passed on the recessive black eye gene. B - Blue Eye Gene (Dominant) b - Black Eye Gene (recessive) Mother - Bb (Blue Eyes) Father - bb (Black Eyes) Child - bb (Black Eyes)
Which is the dominant gene father has dark brown eyes mother has blue eyes?
Sure you don't mean heterozygous dominant? If you don't there would be no blue eyed offspring. Let's assume you meant heterozygous dominant.B = brownbl = blueBbl X Bbl1/4 of the offspring would have blue eyes, 25%.
If the father has blue eyes the mother has grey eyes what colour eyes will the baby have?
it depends what gene it gets because you have dominant and recessive genes and if the baby gets grey dominant gene then its eyes will be gray!!
Are blue eyes if green eyes dominant?
recessive
Are brown eyes dominant or recessive?
Brown eyes are dominant. That's why more people have brown eyes then hazel or blue or green.
Are green eyes dominant over brown eyes?
In most cases, no. If your parents give you a blue eye trait and a brown eye trait, you will most likely have brown eyes. However, there are many different alleles that factor into your eye color. That is why there are so many shades of eye color, such as blue, green, gray, brown, hazel, blue-green, etc... So, you may not always get pure blue or brown eyes, you may get a mix of both.
Are blue eyes more dominant than brown eyes?
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.
Is brown eyes dominate or is blue?
Brown eyes are dominant.
What color eyes does Prince Harry have?
His eyes are blue.

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.
Why are blue eyes associated with the north?
Blue eyes are the dominant eye color in Northern Europe.
What is the color of the baby eyes if the mother have the recessive gene for blue and the father has blue eyes?
I assume you mean the mother has a dominant allele for some other color. Father is homozygous recessive for blue. Dominant allele + recessive blue X recessive blue + recessive blue The baby has a 50% chance of blue eyes and a 50% chance of getting the dominant colored eyes.
