The tool which The tool which uses the uses the
combination of combination of alleles to predict alleles to predict the probability of the probability of traits showing up traits showing up
in offspring.in offspring.

How many different Punnett squares can
you think of?
• In humans, having bushy eyebrows is a trait that is dominant over having thin eyebrows. Two parents with bushy eyebrows are going to have a baby. What can be predicted about how the baby's eyebrows will develop?
– The baby definitely will have bushy eyebrows.– The baby most likely will have bushy eyebrows.– The baby will not have bushy eyebrows.– There is not enough information given.
• Joey has blue eyes, while Diane has brown eyes. What causes them to have different eye colors?
– They have different chromosomes for the two eye colors.
– Joey has a different number of chromosomes than Diane.
– They have different combinations of the genes for eye color.
– Joey's mother must have had blue eyes, because you only get blue eyes from your mother.
• In pea plants, purple flowers are dominant to white flowers. Suppose a purple-flowered plant with genotype Pp is crossed with another purple-flowered plant with the same Pp genotype. What percentage of offspring will also have purple flowers?
– 25%– 50%– 75%– 100%
