Brown (B) is dominant. That means that if you inherit a B allele from just one of your parents, you will exhibit brown eyes (so both BB and Bb = brown phenotype [what you see]). However, non-brown (on this set) is recessive, so you need to inherit a non-brown (b) allele from BOTH of your parents to exhibit it (bb).Then there’s green vs. non-green. Green (G) is dominant, but not AS dominant as brown. Green also operates against non-brown (still b), which is again less dominant.SO:BB GG = brownBB Gb = brownBb GG = brownBb Gb = brownBB bb = brownBb bb = brownbb GG = greenbb Gb = greenbb bb = blue(This is a very simplified explanation and there are other factors at play, but you can see how brown + blue can totally equal green [the brown-eyed parent would have the genotype Bb GG or Bb Gb and will have passed the b from the first set and the G from the second set to you, while the blye-eyed parent would obviously have passed on a b from both sets].) -- source link
