If mother has blue eyes father has hazel eyes what color eyes will child have?

The answer depends on the genetics of the brown-eyed mother. If she has two brown alleles, than most likely the baby will also have brown eyes. However, if the mother has one brown allele and one blue allele (and thus phenotypically brown-eyed, as brown is dominant), it is certainly possible for the baby to have blue eyes (receiving one blue allele from the mother, and one blue allele from the father...if in fact the father is blue-green hazel). Mendelian genetics, in this case, would approximate 25% of the babies to be born blue-eyed.

If a 21 year old is 5 feet tall how can he become more taller?

You are probably still growing at 16 so you have that going for you. Here are some more tips: * Don't do any really heavy weight training exercises until you've stopped growing as the growth plates at the ends of your bones may be adversely affected therefore affecting your growth. Also, there are spinal compression factors with some exercises. * Improve your posture. Good posture can add inches to someone's height if they start with poor posture. Alexander technique or yoga can help here. * Stretching and hanging exercises will be most effective in lengthening the spine. A healthy, supple spine with healthy discs and good posture is the key.

Why is it important to circumcise Jewish babies?

Circumcision is a religious tradition for Jews that goes back thousands of years. No one knows for sure how it started, but it is believed it may be related to difficulties with hygiene in the desert environment of the Middle East. Jewish theologians generally discount the practical explanation in favor of the religious one.

The Jewish bris is a sign of Abraham's covenant with G-d. It is practiced by all branches of Judaism. The reason male circumcision is important to Judaism is because the Torah specifies that uncircumcised Jewish males are cut of from Judaism and cannot participate in a large percentage of Jewish life and ritual.

In terms of when the circumcision occurs, aside from the Torah specifying it must be done at 8 days, modern research has shown that blood clotting performance peaks at 8 days. Additionally, when circumcision is done at 8 days, it is a minor process that heals within 36-48 hours on average. Adult male circumcision is a serious surgery that requires stitches and a fairly long and painful healing process.

What to do when a baby has a fever?

You can often tell just by placing your hand on the child's forehead. Or take its temperature with an underarm thermometer (underarm measurements are usually one or two degrees low, so add a degree or two).

A baby does not have a fever unless its temperature is above 100 degrees F / 37.7 degrees C in the morning or over 101 degrees F / 38.2 degrees C in the evening.

If the baby is less than 6 months, then call the doctor. If there is nothing else wrong with the child it probably will recover by itself. Fever is a sign that the body is fighting some illness.

Can a baby survive at 27 wks?

Babies have been born this premature, and although it's dangerous for them, many do live (although they almost always need at least 3-to-5 months in a special in-hospital unit before they are allowed to come home). For some reason girl babies have a much higher chance of surviving than boy babies.

How could you get rid of your unborn child without the need of money?
