Why do I have brown eyes?

The genes we inherit from our parents determine things like our height, looks, hair color and eye color. This passing of characteristics from parent to child is called heredity. If your mother has brown eyes, and your father has blue eyes, there’s a good chance you’ll have brown eyes. That’s because the brown-eye gene is dominant, and the blue-eye gene is recessive. The dominant gene usually prevails over the recessive one. It’s possible, however, for you to have blue eyes if both your parents have brown eyes. They probably inherited recessive blue-eye genes from their parents and passed them on to you.

i think if ur father has a strong x then u have blue eyes n if ur mother has a strong y then u have brown eyes

Actually, eye color is not determined by the X and Y chromosomes. It is determined by multiple genes, including OCA2 and HERC2, which can influence the amount and distribution of melanin (the pigment responsible for eye color) in the iris. The specific combination of these genes determines whether someone will have brown, blue, green, or another eye color.

The idea of a "strong X" or "strong Y" is not accurate when it comes to eye color inheritance. The dominant and recessive genes for eye color are not directly linked to the sex chromosomes. Instead, eye color inheritance is more complex and involves the interaction of various genes.

To truly understand why you have brown eyes, you would need to know the specific combination of genes inherited from your parents, as well as the variations within those genes that influence eye color.
