A blue eyed agouti hair male mouse is mated to a brown eyed yellow haired female mouse, and a test cross is performed with the F1.  Both blue eyes and yellow hair are recessive phenotypes.  What is the probability of a recovering a phenotypically blue-eyed yellow haired mouse in the F2 if: eye color  and hair color are 50 map units apart on the same autosome
