Answer:

Dihybrid shows more phenotypes

Step-by-step explanation:

For a monohybrid cross, individual alleles are used, whereas for a dihybrid cross, pairs of alleles are used. A Punnett square for a monohybrid cross is divided into four squares, whereas a Punnett square for a dihybrid cross is divided into 16 squares.

Answer:

A dihybrid cross tracks two traits. Both parents are heterozygous, and one allele for each trait exhibits complete dominance. A monohybrid cross is a breeding experiment between P generation (parental generation) organisms that differ in a single given trait.
