Say "B" indicates the gene for brown eyes, and "b" the gene for blue eyes.

"BB" - Homozygous ( the person has brown eyes)

"Bb" - Hetrozygous ( the person has brown eyes)

"bb" - Homozygous ( the person has blue eyes)

Dominant refers to the dominant gene, i.e. the one that decides the appearance of the person (The gene represented by a capital letter).

Recessive refers to the recessive gene, i.e. the other gene which does not have any effect on the appearance of the person, but may have an effect on the appearance of their future children (The gene represented by a lower case letter).
