If you look at a Punnet square of this, you can determine the possible phenotypes. Lets assign B for brown eyes, b for blue eyes, H for right hand and h for left hand. 

The mother is blue eyed and left handed which are both recessive traits. This means that her genotype would be bbhh. Now the father is heterozygous for both, which means he has a dominant and recessive allele for each trait. His genotype would then be BbHh

The Punnet square should look like the table below:

Mother:bbhh
Father:BbHh

         bh          bh        bh        bh
BH  BbHh    BbHh    BbHh   BbHh   
Bh   Bbhh     Bbhh    Bbhh    Bbhh
bH   bbHh     bbHh    bbHh    bbHh
bh   bbhh      bbhh     bbhh     bbhh

Based on the Punnet square, you have 4 possible genotypic combinations and 4 possible phenotypic combinations.

BbHh: Brown-eyed, right-handed
Bbhh:  Brown-eyed, left-handed
bbHh   Blue-eyed, right handed
bbhh    Blue-eyed, left-handed

Compare the modern Cell Theory to the original Cell Theory
CaHeK987 [17]
The statements of the old cell theory are:
1. All organisms are composed of cells
2. The cell is the basic unit of life
3. Cells are produced from existing cells

The modern cell theory's statements are:
1. The cell contains hereditary information which is passed to daughter cells
2. All cells are basically the same in composition and activity
3. All basic functions occur in cells
4. Cell activities depend on intracellular structures

As is visible from the statements, the old cell theory was not as detailed and lacked the understanding of the function, structure and behavior of cells that the current theory possesses. This difference has come about after years of research, through which scientists understood the functions of cells and elaborated on the theory's statements.
