Homework Answers
The answer is ( A ) True.
Explanation :
Punnet square is a square diagram that is used to predict the likelihood of transmitting the genetic disorders whether autosomal dominant or recessive disorders from parents to their offspring. Reginald. C. Punnet was the person who designed this approach and hence it is named after him. A square table is drawn and maternal and paternal alleles are mentioned and the probabilities is drawn which shows the possibilities of their offspring developing the genetic disorders.
Thank you.

what is the difference between heterozygous and homozygous individuals
What is the difference between heterozygous and homozygous individuals? Homozygotes have one chromosome while heterozygotes have two similar chromosomes. The homozygote will express the dominant trait and the heterozygote will express the recessive trait. All of the gametes from a homozygote carry the same version of the gene while those of a heterozygote will differ. Heterozygotes carry two copies of a gene while homozygotes only carry one. When constructing a Punnett square, the symbols on the outside of the boxes...

Albinism occurs in many species of animals, and in plants. For the animals, the condition may be an inconvenience, but for the plants it can be a death sentence.
