Imagine that you are a new breeder for caique parrots. You can sell normal greenfeather birds for $500 a bird. The mutation for blue feathers is rare and birds with thiscolor can sell for $3000 a bird. Your goal is to produce as many blue feather offspringas you can, but you don't have the budget to buy blue feather birds as parents.Question: What genotype should you purchase for both parent blrds to get the bestchance of getting blue feather offspring? Create and use your Punnett square results asevidence to support your answer.You will need to make multiple Punnett Squares to see which parent genotypes makesthe most blue feathered offspring. Keep in mind that Green fealhers (G) is dominantover blue feathers (g), so birds with blue feathers have the genotype gg. Some Punnettsquares are provided for you to determine the possible crosses, but remember yoUcannot afford a blue feathered bird, so neither of your parent birds can have thegenotype gg.
