Question

For the above cross, the genotypes of the offspring would be?

-RR 100%
-RR 75%
-RR 50 %
-RR 25%
-RR 0%
-Rr 100%
-Rr75%
-Rr 50%
-Rr25%
-Rr 0%
-rr 100%
-rr 75%
-rr 50%
-rr 25%
-rr 0%

Answer 1

Therefore, the possible genotypes of the offspring are 50% RR, Rr 25% , and rr 25%.

The possible genotypes of the offspring are:

Rr, and rr.

The Punnett square will show that each offspring has a 50% chance of inheriting the R allele from one parent and a 50% chance of inheriting the r allele from the other parent. This means that there is a 25% chance of an offspring having the genotype RR (pure black), a 50% chance of having the genotype Rr (heterozygous black), and a 25% chance of having the genotype rr (pure white).
