Question:
The color of one’s eyes is determined by a single pair of genes, with the gene for brown eyes being dominant over the one for blue eyes. This means that an individual having two blue-eyed genes will have blue eyes, while one having either two brown-eyed genes or one brown-eyed and one blue-eyed gene will have brown eyes. When two people mate, the resulting offspring receives one randomly chosen gene from each of its parents’
gene pair. If the eldest child of a pair of brown-eyed parents has blue eyes, what is the probability that exactly two of the four other children (none of whom is a twin) of this couple also have blue eyes?
