What is a Punnett Square used for?

Back

To predict the genotypes and phenotypes of offspring from genetic crosses.

Front

What is the difference between dominant and recessive traits?

Back

Dominant traits are expressed when at least one dominant allele is present; recessive traits are expressed only when two recessive alleles are present.
