Punnett Squares Mr. Mah Ms. Redelmeier Living Environment
HOMOZYGOUS organism with two identical alleles for the same trait(TT or tt)
HETEROZYGOUSorganism with two different alleles for the same trait(Tt)
DOMINANTallele that is expressed when in the presence of a recessive allele(TT or Tt = tall)
RECESSIVEallele that is expressed only when homozygous(tt = short)
My name is Jay-Z… Brown hair is homozygous and dominant. For hair: What is my genotype? What is my phenotype? BB or Bb Brown
My name is Taylor Swift… Brown eyes are homozygous and dominant. For eyes: What is my genotype? What is my phenotype? bb Blue
GENE = Height ALLELE = Tall, Short Gene is represented by the letter “t” Dominant = T Recessive = t Remember: you need 2 copies of every gene!!!
Essential Question:How can we determine what the offspring are going to be?

Punnett Squares show the probability of getting a certain type of offspring
Think/Pair/SharePunnett Squares can be used to predict the probability of:a) being exposed to a contagious disease and contracting itb) having an inherited disease or a genetically determined physical trait c) both a and b

Cross a homozygous dominant with a recessive (for height where T is dominant and tall).Find the genotype and the phenotype
Cross a heterozygote with a recessive (for height where T is dominant and tall).Find the genotype and the phenotype
Cross a heterozygote with another heterozygote (for skin color where Black is B, b = white).Find the genotype and the phenotype
Cross a heterozygote with another heterozygote (for nose size where big nose is N and small nose is n).Find the genotype and the phenotype
A male with black hair, homozygous dominant, has offspring with a blonde woman. What are the ratios of genotypes found in the offspring?
