Yes, because your genes have both dominant and recessive traits, so you may have 1 blue and 1 brown and your wife may have 1 blue and 1 brown and (and this is gross simplification) when your genes combine if even one of your brown traits gets passed onto the child it will have brown eyes.
I don't know what your scientific terms mean, but I can tell you that I am a blue eyed female (my father was brown eyed/my mother had hazel eyes). The father of my two children is brown eyed. Both of my children have blue eyes.
If brown eye color is a dominant trait and blue eye color is recessive, then Carla's eye color can be either brown or blue. If she has at least one allele for brown eyes, she will have brown eyes. If she inherits two recessive alleles for blue eyes, then she will have blue eyes. Without additional information about her parents' genotypes, we cannot definitively determine Carla's eye color.
If both parents have brown eyes, it means they both carry the dominant brown eye color gene. However, if their first child has blue eyes, it indicates that both parents carry the recessive blue eye color gene. The chances of their second child having blue eyes would be 25%, as both parents would have to pass on the recessive gene for blue eyes.
Blue eyes are a recessive trait. If at least one of the parents had a blue/hazel eyes with a mixture of blue and brown, then the couple's offspring could have brown eyes. If both parents had solid blue eyes, neither would have the dominant brown gene to pass to the baby, and it would have blue eyes, regardless of the grandmother's eye color.
Brown is dominant and Green is somewhere in the middle. There are possibilities that this may occur but without the genes then it is hard to tell. To get blue eyes both parents would need blue eyed recessive genes and the kid would have to receive both those recessive genes which is very rare. In this case blue eyes is not a sex-linked gene so its possible the the male and female with have a female with blue eyes. Most likely the child will have brown eyes though. This is because if the son does get the recessive from the mother, but gets the dominant from the father, the dominant will overpower the recessive and the son will just be another blue eye gene carrier and himself have brown eyes.

The brown allele is recessive. Think: Blue = B, and brown = b Your friend is Bb, or heterozygous for the gene. In heterozygotes, the expressed phenotype is the dominant gene, which in this case, apparently, is blue. Thus, because your friend does not have brown eyes, the brown allele must be recessive.
Brown eyes are dominant. That's why more people have brown eyes then hazel or blue or green.
Probably blue. Though brown is possible if you both carry brown as a recessive gene.
Blue eyes are a recessive trait, while brown eyes are dominant. If both parents are heterozygous for brown eyes, it means they both carry the recessive trait for blue eyes, and so there is a 25% chance their offspring will be blue-eyed.
Tim's parents both have the recessive trait for blue eyes but their brown eye traits are the dominant ones that show. Time must have by chance gotten both the recessive genes from his parents and no brown eye genes thus his blue eyes go without the brown taking over.
you cannot have a blue eyed boy. unless there is someone in your family that has blue eyes. the brown and green would be either a recessive or dominent trait. traits don't mix together to create different things. like brown and green. brown and green don't even mix to make blue

Yes. Blue eyes are a recessive genetic trait, which means that a brown- or green-eyed person can still carry a gene for blue eyes. In this case, the blue-eyed gene is recessive, or subordinate, to the green- or brown-eyed gene. To be blue-eyed, an individual must have a recessive blue-eyed gene from both its mother and father.
It is possible for two brown-eyed parents to have a blue-eyed child if both parents carry a recessive gene for blue eyes. When these recessive genes are passed on to the child, they can combine to produce the trait of blue eyes, even if the parents themselves have brown eyes.
