[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Recessive genetics: Two blue eyed parents can only have blue eyed children. (unless their eyes are not really blue, but are grey --that is a dilution of the brown gene) Green eyes are a mix of brown + blue gene. Dilution gene is an aspect of another gene -- make it lighter, and is recessive. True blondes, who remain blondes in adulthood without a trip to the hairdresser: If both parents are true blondes, all off spring will be blonde. Blonde + recessive dilution gene = white blond hair. Blonde as kids, brown as adults have dominant brown gene. It is possible to have a double recessive blonde hair child, but (80% against) unlikely if both parents carry the brown gene. Genetics! [/quote] Hmm that's interesting. My mom has green eyes, my dad brown. I have green eyes just like my mom, while my sister has blue eyes. Always wondered where she got those and why neither of us wound up with my dad's brown eyes, since I figured brown was dominant.[/quote]
