Two brown eyed parents have produced three blue eyed sons if they have another child what are the chances that it will also have blue eyes

A) blue eyes are dominant in this family so there is a 75 percent chance the next will be blue eyed
B) after having three blue eyed children there is a 0 percent chance of having another
C) both parents carry a recessive allele for blue eyes so there is a 25 percent chance of having another
D) since all their children are blue eyed there is a 100 % chance the next will too

Since blue eyes are dominant, the answer that would make the most sense is A. Hope this helped! :)

I did the test and answer was C. Both parents carry a recessive allele for blue eyes, so there is a 25 percent chance of having another.
