Spongebob & Friends
• Scientists at Bikini Bottoms
have been investigating the
genetic makeup of the
organisms in this community.
• Use the following information
to test your knowledge of
genetics.
Spongebob
• Yellow body color is dominant
to blue
• What is Spongebob’s
phenotype?
– Yellow
• What is Spongebob’s possible
genotype?
– YY or Yy
Patrick
• Tall head is dominant to short
head.
• What is Patrick’s phenotype?
– Tall
• What is Patrick’s possible
genotype?
– TT or Tt
Spongebob
• Spongebob Squarepants recently
met SpongeSusie Roundpants at
a dance.
• Spongebob is heterozygous for
his squareshape, but Susie is
round.
• What are the possible genotypes
if they had children?
• Draw a Punnett Square
Spongebob
• What are the chances of a
child with a square shape?
• ___ out of ___
• ___%
• What are the chances of a
child with a round shape?
• ___ out of ___
• ___%
Patrick
• Patrick recently met Patti at a
dance.
• Both of them are heterozygous
for their pink skin color which is
dominant over yellow.
• What are the possible genotypes
if they had children?
• Draw a Punnett Square
Patrick

• What are the chances of a
child with yellow skin?
• ___ out of ___
• ___%
Squidward
• Squidward’s family has light blue
skin, which is the dominant trait
for body color.
• His family brags that they are a
“purebred” line.
• He recently married a nice girl
with light green skin, which is a
recessive trait.
• What are the possible genotypes
if they had children?
• Draw a Punnett Square
Squidward

child with blue skin?

Mr Krabbs
• Mr Krabbs and his wife recently had a
Lil’ Krabby, but it has not been a happy
occasion.
• Mrs. Krabbs has been upset since she
first saw her baby who had short
eyeballs.
• She claims that the hospital goofed and
mixed up her baby with someone else’s
baby.
• Mr. Krabbs is homozygous for his tall
eyeballs, while Mrs. Krabbs is
heterozygous.
• Draw a Punnett Square to figure out if
the hospital made a mistake.
