Create a punnett square for this situation:
In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur (B) is
dominant over the allele for white fur (b). In a cross
between a heterozygous black guinea pig (Bb) and a
homozygous white guinea pig (bb), what is the
probability that an offspring will have white fur?
Objective:
To review heredity and probability


What is probability?

A number that describes how likely it is that an event will
occur.
 If you know the parents’ alleles for a trait, how can you use
a Punnett square to predict the probable genotypes of the
offspring?

A punnett square shows all the possible combinations of
alleles that can result from a genetic cross.
 A pea plant with round seeds has the genotype Rr. You
cross this plant with a wrinkled-seed plant, genotype rr.
What is the probability that the offspring will have wrinkled
seeds? (Use a Punnett square to help with the prediction.)

Define genotype and phenotype

Genotype – an organism’s genetic makeup

Phenotype – an organism’s physical appearance
Explain how two organisms can have the same phenotype but
different genotypes. Give an example.


A pea plant has a tall stem. What are its possible genotypes?


TT or Tt
What is codominance? Give an example of codominant alleles and
explain why they are codominant.


A heterozygous organism will have the same phenotype as an organism
that is homozygous for a dominant allele. An example would be a tall
pea plant can be either heterozygous or homozygous.
An inheritance pattern in which alleles for a trait are neither dominant
nor recessive. For example, the alleles for black and white chicken
feathers are codominant because both colors show.
What is the phenotype of a chicken with the genotype FBFW?

Black and white feathers

W = long whiskers
 Homozygous = WW
w = short whiskers
 Heterozygous = Ww
What percentage of offspring
would be expected to have
short whiskers from the cross
of two long-whiskered seals,
one that is homozygous
dominant and one that is
heterozygous?

Punnett Square Practice
In humans, wavy hair (HcHs) results
by the co-dominant situation of curly
hair (Hc) and straight hair (Hs).
What are the possible results if a
curly-haired man and wavy-haired
woman have children.
