Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion "B"-yellow "b"-green. When 2 heterozygous parents for both traits are crossed it's called a dihybrid cross- AaBb × AaBb. Fill in the Punnett Square with the genotypes of this cross.
Can help find which number of genotype is the correct answer?
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Human ABO blood type is controlled by the I locus and has three possible alleles. The alleles which code for type A blood (IA) and type B blood (IB) are codominant, while the allele for type O blood (i) is recessive. In a cross between a person with a genotype of IAi and a person with genotype IAIB, what is the probability of having three offspring with type A blood?
Perform a monohybrid cross. What is the frequency for the offspring with the het genotype? What percent of the offspring will have the recessive phenotype?

The first female gave birth to eight black pups, and the second female gave birth to four white and three black pups. What are the likely genotypes of the male parent and the two female parents? Use Punnett’s squares to support your answer. Explain whether you are uncertain about any of the genotypes.
