Answer:

Mendel's model, parents pass along “heritable factors," which we now call genes, that determine the traits of the offspring. Each individual has two copies of a given gene, such as the gene for seed color (Y gene) shown below. If these copies represent different versions, or alleles, of the gene, one allele—the dominant one—may hide the other allele—the recessive one. For seed color, the dominant yellow allele Y hides the recessive green allele y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The four-squared box shown for the \text F_2F

2

start text, F, end text, start subscript, 2, end subscript generation is known as a Punnett square. To prepare a Punnett square, all possible gametes made by the parents are written along the top (for the father) and side (for the mother) of a grid. Here, since it is self-fertilization, the same plant is both mother and father.

The combinations of egg and sperm are then made in the boxes in the table, representing fertilization to make new individuals. Because each square represents an equally likely event, we can determine genotype and phenotype ratios by counting the squares.

Sorry if it not really good ,but i do try my best for that

thank you
