One of the most distinct characteristics about a person is the color of their eyes. Assume that a father has brown eyes and a mother has green eyes. The father has a brown eye allele and a green eye allele. The mother has two green eye alleles. The brown eyes are dominant and green eyes are recessive.
Determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the possible offspring of these two people.
What are the chances that the offspring will have green eyes?
Because the father has a green allele, there is fifty percent chance that a child would have green eyes and 50 percent chance that a child would have brown eyes.
