Answer 2

Yes, they are called loss of function mutations.

Eye color is determined by a number of genes and environmental factors, a lot of which we don't yet understand. But, we do know about the two primary genes involved, B and G.

If you have a functioning (i.e., dominant) allele at the B gene (so you'd be BB or Bb), then you have brown eyes.  However, if you have two recessive (or mutant, non-functioning) alleles, bb, then it matters what you have at the G gene.  If you are bbGG or bbGg then you have green eyes.  If you have the non-functioning alleles for both genes, bbgg, then you have blue eyes.

Answer 3

Nature shuffles our genes

Answer 4

Yes everything is a mutation...having fingers and toes is a mutation, different skin colours are mutations, hair colours are mutations
