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.

Say both your parents had green eyes but you had blue eyes. They have a Green eye dominant trait (G) and a blue eye trait (g) so do the Punnett square and you have 4 children. One has blue eyes (gg) and the other 3 have green eyes (Gg).
Or say your mom had blue eyes and your dad had green eyes 2 children would have blue eyes and 2 would have green eyes.
So blue is a recessive trait, green and brown are both dominant traits.

What eye colors are dominant and which are recessive?
It depends what area you are talking about. If its in Europe then maybe blue eyes, or if its in India then probably brown eyes. In the whole world it is brown eyes.
Allele that is always expressed if present?
An allele that is always expressed when it is present is the dominant allele.
Can a white man with green eyes and a dominican with black eyes can have a baby with green eyes?
Whichever gene is more dominant will pass on to the child. EDIT: Whoever posted the above answer is incorrect. SHORT ANSWER: Brown eyes are more likely, but it's still possible. Indepth: Brown eyes will always be the dominant gene over green. Gene dominance doesn't work on a personal level. It just depends which combination of genes the parents pass. This is why you see siblings with different eye colors. The dad could have brown eyes and still be carrying a recessive gene for green eyes. If he passes those genes instead, then green eyes are much more likely. Likewise, the child could end up with brown eyes while carrying the mother's recessive gene for green eyes, and then pass it to their child. ("skipping a generation")
In some animals brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes so which of these genotypes will complete this Punnett Square?

Are blue eyes dominant over green eyes?
No. They are both recessive meaning that both parents must have the gene for either blue or green.
Are green-hazel eyes recessive?
Brown Eyes are Dominant, Blue Eyes are recessive, Green Eyes are Dominant over Blue and Recessive to Brown Eyes, Same for Hazel. ACTUALLY!!!!...Green Eyes are more recessive than any eye color including Blue Only 2% of the Worlds Population have them! WRONG!!!!... Green Eyes ARE dominant over blue. It's just that the Green Eye trait is more rare.
Is green eye color a recessive trait?
Green and blue eyes are caused by the same gene. So neither would be dominant over the other.

Is blue or brown the dominant eye color?
Brown is dominant, over half the world has brown eyes.
Is green a dominat trait?
Depends on what organism, "green" cannot simply be dominant or recessive, it needs to be put in context of some form or organism - for example: are green eyes dominant over blue eyes in humans, or is green foliage dominant over grey foliage in cacti.
Allele that is always expressed if present?
An allele that is always expressed when it is present is the dominant allele.

What color eyes and hair will a baby most likely have if the mother has light brown hair and green eyes the father has black hair and dark brown eyes but grandmother has blond hair and blue eyes?
I am only going off 7th form bio here but in terms of the eye colour: blue is the resessive gene. brown is dominant. Because the father's mum has blue eyes - he MAY be carrying the blue gene (but still has brown eyes showing as this is dominant). It is possible for the baby to have blue eyes. This will happen if the baby gets the recessive blue gene from it's dad, and the recessive blue gene from it's mum as well (I'm pretty sure green eyes carry a blue gene). BUT if it gets the brown eye gene from it's dad - then even if it gets the mum's blue/green gene - it will have brown eyes because brown is dominant over blue/green. Don't know about hair colour sorry :)
What color eyes will the child have father has brown eyes and mother has black eyes?
It depends on the genes but most likely brown because the allele for brown eyes is dominant over all other alleles
What color eyes will the child have father has black eyes and mother has brown eyes?
It depends on the genes but most likely brown because the allele for brown eyes is dominant over all other alleles
If the husband has blue eyes and the mother has green eyes what color will babies eyes be?
It depends if the gene for one eye color is dominant over the other. If the mother's green-eye gene is dominant over the father's brown-eye gene, then the children are more likely to have the mother's green eyes. The same applies vise versa. If the genes are equally matched, then the children have a 50-50 chance of having either brown eyes or green eyes.
