Eye color questions?

Question

What are the odds of a brown eyed parent and a blue eyed parent having a blue eyed child? A green eyed child?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I don't know about green eyed inheritance because true eye color inheritance is polygenic and quite complex. But for simple gene inheritance the chance of a brown and blue eyed parent having a blue eyed child can be either 0% or 50 % it depends on the genetic makeup of the brown eyed parent.

With more background info on the problem I could be a much better help.

Answer 2

while your mothers and fathers conceived you there replace right into a 50 % hazard which you are going to have blue or blue green eyes and a 50% brown eyes. once you husbands mothers and fathers concieved him there as a 25% hazard that he will have easy blue eyes and a seventy 5% hazard of hazel/brown eyes. Brown is a dominant trait and blue is recessive. when you consider that the two one in all you're recessive you won't be able to have a brown eyed youngsters, so which you youngsters might have blue eyes yet what good colour they are going to be is hard to foretell.

Answer 3

that would depend if there is someone in the family (in the DNA) had green eyed. so it might skip a generation n pass it down to the child. Eg. one of the grand parents had green eye.

Answer 4

Who knows? My dad has dark brown and my mom has green. I have blue. My mom says I get my blue eyes from my dad's aunt. So there is probably no telling what eye color the child will have.
Maybe the child will have one brown eye and one blue eye. That has happened before. Wouldn't that be neat?

Answer 5

if two brown eye partners had one brown and one blue ,,,,,then it would be about 50 that they would have one of the each. but because one partner is blue eye the blue eye child would be about 75 because blues eyes would be strong gen. The percent of green eyes child would be about 20& due to the fact that green eyes would be a weaker gen

Answer 6

Depends on which one is dominant. Brown over Blue or Blue over brown. And once you find out which one is dominant, You need to find out whether all the alleles of dominant are present or just one. If one of those color is recessive, and other is partly dominant, then there 1 in 4 chance of having the recessive color.

Answer 7

It depends on the genes they each inherited from their parents. Blue eyes are recessive and the baby would have to get the recessive gene from both parents to have blue eyes. I think that's right. It's been awhile since I took genetics.

Answer 8

Who knows, I have green eyes, my husband has brown, our son has green eyes, our daughter has blue eyes and our youngest daughter has brown eyes. Go figure, we got one of each.

Answer 9

I guess its a 50 50 chance

Answer 10

The odds are unlimited!
