Gene Squares
... A Punnett square is a diagram you can use to show how likely each outcome of a breeding experiment is. It is used when each parent’s genes for a trait are known. By filling in the squares, you can find the possible combinations of genes in the offspring of the two parents. You can also predict the c ...
