I've noticed that the mother has brown eyes and black hair. the father has light-brown hair and blue eyes. Some people say yes this might happen but could you explain how this work? do they have any ways to make it happen the way they want it to?
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
It's very possible. Blue eyes are a recessive trait, meaning that when one parent has a dominant color -- brown -- blue eyes may still be within them and just not expressed. Sometimes it takes generations for a recessive trait to express itself. Using a punnett square, you can see the mathematical chances of this and other eye colors happening from in their children (brown eyes/blue eyes and black hair/brown hair examples).
Even easier. This one is an eye color calculator. Enjoy. http://www.athro.com/evo/inherit.html
Hair color tends to be harder. Here's an article to help you get the information you need: http://www.thetech.org/genetics/ask.php?...
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
its all in the gens, somewhere along the line someone had that. my daughter is a red head, i'm brunette, so his her father. my son also has blonde hair.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
I am white, the father of my children was black. You need to do your biology windows again. Of course it is possible. What is even funnier, none of my kids (4) had blue eyes like me. The third child in my twins families both have blue-green eyes, though, a full generation away from me. Don't think you could make it come out by choice like that, though.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
The exact mechanism of how this,meaning genes, work is not yet clearly established. All I can say it is possible.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
To have this happen the way they want to would be considered genetic engineering which thus far isn't acceptable as far as society goes (not for humans anyway).
The father's genes were more predominant in this pregnancy and even if the father doesn't have blue eyes, there is someone within his family who does have them, thus the eye color does exist within the family tree.
Perhaps the next infant for this couple will have the traits of the mother...it all depends on whose genes are stronger when conception takes place
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
Its in the Gene's its very hard to explain,
O Asian O brown eyes O black hair
+
O white skin O brown hair O blue eyes
those are the genes of the father and mother,
the childs could be any of many combinations:
=
O White Skin O Brown Hair O Blue Eyes
or
O Asian O Brown eyes O Black Hair
or
O White Skin O Brown Eyes O Black Hair
or
OAsian O Brown Hair O Brown Eyes
or
O Asian O Black Hair O Blue eyes...
ETC .. you get the Idea, your question Combination can be one of these, So yes, Its possible
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
It's just genetics. If the father has doubts he should get a paternity test. Some mixed Asian and Caucasions have green eyes too.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
Absolutely. In fact, even if BOTH parents have dark colored eyes ... but there was a ancestor ... who had blue eyes, the child could end up with blue eyes.
No, you can't "make" a child have blue eyes ... unless it's through artificial insemination, where they are able to screw around with the genes that determine eye color...silly really. A person should just be happy that their child is healthy and HAS eyes.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
ABSOLUTELY!
Blue eyes denotes the ABSENCE of pigment.
Two blue eyed people CANNOT have a brown eyed child (nothing plus nothing equals nothing), but two brown eyed people CAN have a blue eyed child.
If ONE parent has blue eyes, the chance that the child will have blue eyes DRAMATICALLY increases.
While science HAS made great progress in helping parents choose the SEX of their children (there's the whole moral question here), they have not yet figured out how to choose a childs features.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
Of course
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
i don't think there's away to "make it happen the way you want it to"... but i have seen children who are half-asian, half-white and have blue eyes, so it is possible.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
NOT POSSIBLE!
While theoretically there are chances, certain features have a dominant gene. For example, dark hair is dominant over blonde hair. That is why two blonde parents can end up with dark haired children. This is because both maybe carries of dark hair gene. Dark eyes are dominant over blue eyes. Curly hair is dominant over straight hair. So in your example above, the children will have brown hair and dark eyes.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
There are a few Asians with blue eyes, although it is rare. Blue eyes are caused by a recessive gene. Anyone with blue eyes has two recessive genes, one from each parent. So the mother, even thoug she has brown eyes (brown is dominant) is carrying a blue recessive gene. Since the father can contribute only the recessive genes, and the mother has a 50\50 chance of passing on either a brown (dominant) or a blue (recessive) gene, any child they have will have a 50% chance of having blue eyes.
In a population with mostly brown eyes there can be recessive genes that some carry but rarely show do to the prevalence of homozygous (carrying two of the same type) brown genes. When two people each with a recessive gene and a dominant gene (heterozygous) produce a child that child will have a 25% chance of showing the recessive gene.
With hair color being controlled by more than one gene the math gets more complicated.
It's all playing the odds.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
The Asian mother would have had to have a fairly recent blue-eyed ancestor in order to carry the (recessive) genes for blue eyes.
Could a child of a white father and an Asian mother have blue eyes and brown hair?
yes, it's all in the genes.
say the asian mother had a white father, who had blue eyes, but the mother, also asian had dominant brown eyes. So far, it would look like this:
bb x BB (eye color) which makes the mother now Bb, she meets a man with blue eyes, there kid has a 50% chance of getting blue eyes.
The genetic cross would be Bb x bb, making the possible outcomes Bb or bb.
