A Punnett square showing the cross between two dragons is shown.

In dragons, the smooth-shell egg allele (R) is dominant over the rough-shell egg allele (r).

(Remember, an allele is a version of a gene - ex: if eye color is the gene, blue eyes is one possible allele)

Select the punnett square that is filled in accurately.
