There is a 25% chance of an offspring having blue eyes.

Explanation:

A punnet square can be described as a diagram which is made to check the outcomes of a cross.

In the scenario discussed in the question, only one trait is being studied. Such a cross is termed as a monohybrid cross.

As both the parents are heterozygous for the trait, hence the punnet square can be made as follows:

       B             b

B   BB            Bb

b   Bb            bb

The results of this punnet square show that:

they are known to reach a speed of 21 miles per hour

some fungi obtain their nutrients from a living host (plant or animal) and are called most biotrophic fungi have fairly narrow host ranges—they are specialized on a limited called rhizomorphs that allow the fungus to grow from one tree to another. ascospores are formed inside a sac-like structure called an ascus. so your answer is a
