A mother and father have brown eyes and their first child has blue eyes. If having blue eyes requires 2 recessive genes and brown eyes requires only 1 dominant gene, this means that the mother and father both gave their first child a recessive gene for eye color. Please explain how answer came about.

  1. 1/2 a chance of being male multiplied by 3/4 chance of having brown eyed give you a 3/8 chance of the next two children being males and having one more children doesn't change the probability of the next having a different probability. I did a test cross to find this


  2. it's easy... it's your ancestors...it's like me ... i'm a 1/3 male, 1/3 Indian (India's Indian), and 1/3 Gurbandy...
