Can several alleles affect a single trait like eye color?
Alleles affect traits like eye color. Alleles for brown and blue eyes are dominant and recessive respectively. Individuals who have homozygous and heterozygous genotypes with the dominant allele will have brown eyes. However individuals are homozygous for the recessive allele will have blue eyes.
What eye color do most people in the world have?

Blue eyes - homozygous recessive Brown eyes - homozygous dominant Brown eyes with one brown allele and one blue allele - heterozygous
Are green eyes dominant over brown eyes?
In most cases, no. If your parents give you a blue eye trait and a brown eye trait, you will most likely have brown eyes. However, there are many different alleles that factor into your eye color. That is why there are so many shades of eye color, such as blue, green, gray, brown, hazel, blue-green, etc... So, you may not always get pure blue or brown eyes, you may get a mix of both.
How many genes do females have for color blindness?
15 Genes control eye color. Its not the simple 2 genes (Dominant and Recessive) that most people learn in high school biology. These 15 genes play different roles and have varying levels of influence on eye color. Eye color is almost impossible to predict and it doesn't entirely matter what color the parents' eyes are. Parents that have brown eyes could easily have a child with blue. and vice versa. The level of pigmentation (called melanin) is what determines the color. The less melanin, the lighter the color. Blue eyes have the least melanin in them, brown has the most. every other color is in-between.
How do you explain the principle of dominance?
Genetic dominance? One gene is dominant over the other gene in the chromosome pair by having it protein product made totally at the expense of the recessive gene, or the protein product dominates production. For instance, blue eye color is recessive to brown eye color. You have two alleles ( different molecular form of the same gene ) in this case; one from one parent and one from the other parent. Only the brown allele expresses and is called dominant then.
