Answer:

probability is 0%

Explanation:

  • In case of eyecolor, brown is the dominant one and blue is the recessive color
  • A genotype of  the homozygous brown eye color is represented by BB, whereas, the heterozygous brown eye color is represented by Bb
  • Here, the genotype of father is bb and,
  • genotype of mother is BB (it is mentioned homozygous)
  • So, the progeny genotype will be : Bb, Bb, Bb, Bb
  • For the eye color to be blue, alleles from both parents have to be 'b' & 'b'
  • In this case, eye color of the progeny will be always brown
  • Hence, there is zero percent chances of blue eye color in the progeny.
