Interpret the Punnett square. A Punnett square with four rows and four columns. The first row is labeled big-A, big-B. The second row is labeled big-A, small-b. The third row is labeled small-a, big-B. The fourth row is labeled small-a, small-b. The first column is labeled big-A, big-B. The second column is labeled big-A. small-b. The third column is labeled small-a, big-B. The fourth column is labeled small-a, small-b. Drag "True" or "False" to the end of each statement.

1. The parent genotypes are ABA baBAb x ABAbaBab.
A. True
B. False
2. The gametes are diploid and the offspring are diploid.

3. One of the possible offspring genotypes is AABB.
A. True
B. False
4. This cross shows two alleles for two traits.

Answer:

1. The parent genotype are ABAbaBAb × ABAbaBab - False

2. The gametes are diploid and the offspring are diploid- False

3. One of the possible offspring genotypes is AABB- True

4. This cross shows two alleles for two traits- True

5.The genotypes shown represent gametes- True

Step-by-step explanation:

Punnet square is a square diagram that is used to predict the genetpes of a particular cross or breeding experiment. it is named after Reginald C punnet who devised the approach. the diagram is used by biologist to determine the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype. the punnet square is a tabular summary of possible combination of maternal allele with paternal allele. it is a visual representation of Mendelian inheritance.
