can recessive traits over power dominant traits?

Which brown, light or dark, is the dominant traits for eyes?

How can people tell why each trait is dominant/recessive?

If my dad has blue eyes and my mom has brown eyes how come both my bother and I have green eyes

Green is dominant over blue and brown is dominant over green. Your mom is probably a carrier of the recessive green allele. You and your brother most likely have a green eye allele from your mom and a blue eye allele from your dad.

There is some syndrome that some people have in which one eye is a different color from the other. Why does this happen? Does something get mixed up, and the dominant gene doesn't override the recessive gene?

Why are brown eyes dominant? Why aren't blue eyes dominant?

Why is dominant, dominant?

There's no one-size-fits-all answer. Different alleles can be dominant or recessive for different reasons. It all depends on the gene. The simplest situation of dominant and recessive alleles is if one allele makes a broken protein. When this happens, the working protein is usually dominant. The broken protein doesn't do anything, so the working protein wins out. But a recessive broken allele doesn't explain everything. Not by a long shot.

There are many more reasons- too many to put here :(- but here's the website where I got the info from:

so my parents each have two different recessive genes. What happens then

So...... My dog has one blue eye and one brown eye. How did this happen?

If genetic mutations never happened, would recessive alleles disappear after many generations of breeding?

If you have both parents with both have blue eyes, is there some chance that you will still have brown? If so, approximately what percent chance?
