does the eye color gene skip a generation?
Question:
Answers:
It doesn't skip a generation.
Eye colour is determined by colour dominance.
Brown is dominant over blue.
So, if both parents have hazel eyes, chances are their children will too. If one parent has brown eyes, the other blue, the child will most likely have brown eyes, although there is a small chance of them being blue.
Other Answers:
I have hazel eyes and both my parents have brown eyes, so maybe. Not sure though.
Im pretty sure it does not skip a generation. However it would depend on what kind of trait it was, recessive or dominant and stuff like that whether it would actually show up in your child or not.
I'm not sure about hazel eyes but if both parents have blue eyes then the child will always have blue eyes. Both my parents have brown eyes but me and my one sister have blue eyes. My other sister has brown.
It depends on the dominant and recessive genes. If both parents have one dominant hazel and one recessive blue, each child has 75% chance of being hazel and 25% chance of being blue. Now the child that got blue has 2 recessive blue so it depends on their partner's genes as to what their kids will have.
It is very possible for eye color genes for instance to skip generations. For instance, my mother's generation is all dark eyed, and dark-haired, and so are most of us in mine. However, in my generation, blond hair and blue eyes have started to appear.
well both my parents have hazel eyes and my eyes are blue because BOTH of my grandmothers had blue eyes
so yes .it can skip a generation
