BE SERIOUS PLEASE!! If one parent has BLUE eyes and one has greenish HAZEL, can their child have BROWN eyes?

Question

I would appreciate REAL answers. Can a child have BROWN eyes, if the mother has BLUE eyes and the father has greenish
HAZEL eyes?

Answer 1

It depends who the real father is...

Answer 2

We know very little at this point about eye color and inheritance--high school biology notwithstanding. We do know that eye colors are distinct (brown, green, blue) rather than mixed. Eye colors of children come out as pure green, blue, or brown, not as a mixture of the colors of their parents' eyes. Children can have different eye colors than either of their parents.

There are three known genes involved in eye color. These help explain typical patterns of inheritance of brown, green, and blue eye colors, but they don't explain grey eye color, hazel eye color (which is blue-green, not brown, as some here say), nor multiple shades of blue, brown, green, and grey. The molecular basis of these genes is not known. What proteins they produce and how these proteins produce eye color is not known. Eye color at birth is often blue, and later turns to a darker color. Why eye color can change over time is not known. An additional gene for green is also postulated, and there are reports of blue eyed parents producing brown eyed children.

The known human eye color genes are: EYCL1 (also called gey), the Green/blue eye color gene, EYCL2 (also called bey1), the central brown eye color gene, possibly located on chromosome 15, and EYCL3 (also called bey2), the Brown/blue eye color gene located on chromosome 15. A second gene for green has also been postulated. Other eye colors including grey and hazel are not yet explained. We do not yet know what these genes make, or how they produce eye colors.

Answer 3

Yes, the child can have brown eyes. Hazel eyes are a form of brown eyes. If you can look back a few generations, you will probably see all colors of eyes.

Answer 4

Look, my brother has got blue eyes. My mother and father got brown. But, my both grandmas have blue eyes. So, the older genes can show in some further generations

Answer 5

yes, but not because the genes get "mixed". It is possible that the allele for brown eyes might be recessive and dormant in both the father and the mother. therefore theres a 1/4 chance of the child having brown eyes. again "mixed inheritance" was disproven ages ago by gerogry mendel.

Answer 6

My mother has blue eyes, my father has hazel, I have brown. I have two children, my husband has brownish hazel looking eyes. One little girl has dark brown eyes,( Blond hair ) The other little girl, well who the heck knows!!! Her eyes are NOT brown, are NOT blue and are NOT hazel!! I don't know what you would call them. They are somewhat dark but they are not brown. If it was a possibility, I guess you could call them navy.

Answer 7

heredity plays the part here , there very well could be brown eyes in the family down the line some where and the child inherited them don't jump to conclusions about who the child's father is ...some people just like to make waves ...

Answer 8

i would assume so, i have brown eyes, my husband has green eyes and our daughter has blue eyes so Im sure the possibities are endless of what color the childs eyes may be. I have a friend who has one green eye and one blue, his twin has 2 brown eyes....go figure

Answer 9

This thing always depends on the characters (i.e.dominant and recessive) so dominant character is expressed and the recessive one remains hidden
So if it is the case the child can have brown eyes...
Rather not sure

Answer 10

Of course, the colour of eyes is like any other geneological characteristic, it can go back five generartions. So check the family tree, you see there will be someone with BROWN eyes.

Answer 11

A child can have any type of eyes, mostly depends who the real father is, ONLY MOTHER KNOWS
