Punnett Squares. Tt. Homozygous = purebred. Heterozygous = hybrid. TT or tt. Homozygous vs heterozygous. We use a Punnett square to :. Find the probability of the offspring Predict. Punnett Square Steps. 1 - identify traits that are dominant & recessive T = tall t = short

Tt • Homozygous = purebred • Heterozygous = hybrid • TT or tt Homozygous vs heterozygous
We use a Punnett square to : • Find the probability of the offspring • Predict
Punnett Square Steps • 1 - identify traits that are dominant & recessive T = tall t = short • 2 - Make the equation Tt x tt
Tt x tt • t • T • t • t Steps continued • 3 - set up Punnett square and complete it
4 - list the possible genotypes • 5 - list the possible phenotypes • 50% tall • 50% short • 50% heterozygous tall • 50% homozygous short Steps continued
Try it! • In pea plants for the trait for height the allele tall is dominant over short. • Cross a heterozygous tall plant with a homozygous short. Follow all 5 steps! SHOW ALL WORK!!
