Brown seems pretty common.  I think green eyes are very pretty, but really dark brown eyes, ones that look almost black look very mysterious and deep.  Pruple eyes would be the most beautiful and coolest.  I'm guessing blue would probably be considered to be the prettiest eye colour by american society.

I think its 3 to one since blue is a recessive trait compaired to brown or any other darker eye color since eye color is a mix of pigment and pattern.

There is no ONE kind of animal.... several species can see color to some extent and it is difficult to prove since animals can not tell us!!\n\nHowever go to this link and it will describe many animals that can see color to some extent.\nhttp://webexhibits.org/causesofcolor/17.html\nsome even better than humans (pigeons and mantis shrimp!)

Eye color is a polyploid trait.  the actual genes occur on a couple of different chromosomes.  Sorry.  The human genome project has it mapped out which chromosomes they are my poster is at work.

i stand corrected (looked up answer). its rare but possible.  \n\nEye color is an inherited trait influenced by more than one gene.[6][7] There seem to be three genotypic eye colors (brown, green, and blue) in humans.[3] Although it was once thought that brown eye color was always dominant and blue eye color was always recessive, the fact that two blue-eyed parents can give birth to a brown-eyed child has shown that the determination of eye color does not follow the simple rules of Mendelian inheritance.[6][8] Three gene pairs coding for human eye color are currently known: EYCL1, EYCL2, and EYCL3.[9][10]\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_color#Determination_of_eye_color\nhttp://www.biosci.ohio-state.edu/~pfuerst/courses/eeobmg640/reading1eyecolor.pdf

Blue eyes is a recessive trait.  Someone on both your mother and father's side of the family has blue eyes and you just so happened to luck out genetically.

There are also, rarely, some people whose eyes appear aqua or violet, as well as the pink-eyed albinos. Eye color is determined by the concentration and distribution of melanin in the iris, which affects how light is reflected by the iris. The limitations on eye color are probably the same as the limitations on skin color, which is all controlled by melanin.\n\nHere's a link to an interesting article on eye color.

Brown eyes\n \nBrown eyesThe vast majority of the world's people have dark eyes, ranging from brown to nearly black. Light brown eyes are also present in many people, but to a lesser extent. Most of the original inhabitants of Africa, Asia, and the Americas have brown eyes. Brown eyes are also found in Europe, Oceania and North America, though within European populations they are not predominant to the same extent

First of all, eye color can change with age. Second, it's more complicated that the simple brown / blue description that they give in high school biology class. So I suspect that the answer is yes.

hi, I liked your question and I look it up! this is what I found on answers.com:\nPeople with very dark brown irises may appear to have black eyes. This is fairly common in people of African, Asian and, to a lesser extent, Native American descent. \n:)

"In most colorblindness, the person has a different mixture of cones from normal. The cone cells on the retina are the crucial physical components in seeing color. People with normal color perception have three different cones, each cone is tuned to perceive mostly either Long wavelengths (reddish), Middle wavelengths (greenish), or Short wavelengths (bluish), referred to as L-, M-, and S- cones. Our minds determine what "color" we are seeing by determining the ratio between signals from different types of cones. In people with colorblindness, either a type of cone is missing, or the cone has a different peak absorption from normal.\n\n"Congenital color vision deficiencies overwhelmingly affect the L-cones or the M-cones. Full color blindness and insensitivity to blue light are relatively rare. L-cone and M-cone deficiencies are collectively known as red-green colorblindness, because they reduce the ability to distinguish those two colors. Yellow-blue colorblindness stems from the much rarer deficiencies involving the S-cones.\n\n"Colorblindness is primarily a congenital defect. However, colorblindness can also be acquired, as a result of disease or accident (as in the painting at right). In this case, the color vision deficiency is caused by disruption to the neural pathways between the eye and the vision centers of the brain, rather than by loss of cone function in the eye. For example, achromatopsia, the loss of all color vision, can be acquired as a result of brain damage, and Parkinson's disease commonly induces symptoms that are similar to tritanopia."
