Each box represents a potential offspring. Notice that genotypically speaking, they are all the same. Theyare all heterozygous (genotype) which means their phenotype is dark coloration. So, there is 100% chanceof producing a dark eyed, heterozygous offspring. What if that offspring mated with a light eyedindividual? Can you make a Punnett Square for that?Write the Genotypes and Phenotypes of the parents on the left of the square. Complete the square, thenwrite the potential offspring’s genotypes and phenotypes on the right of the square. Parents: Offspring:Genotypes: phenotypes:  What are the genotypes of the resulting offspring? What are the phenotypes of the resulting offspring?
