Best Answer

B (dominant) is for brown and b (recessive) is for blue.

If both parents have brown eyes, for them to have a blue-eyed child their genotypes (the combination of b's) must both be Bb, because they both need to provide a little b (to have blue eyes you must be double recessive (bb)).

This is worked out using a Punnett Square. (example: https://mcglynn-bioreview4.wikispaces.com/file/view/basicpunnetsquare.jpg)
