Punnett Squares

The video tutorial explains Mendel's theory of genetic inheritance, focusing on monohybrid crosses and the use of Punnett squares to predict offspring genotypes. It provides examples using pea pod colors and cystic fibrosis to illustrate how dominant and recessive genes affect inheritance. The tutorial also covers the process of meiosis and how it leads to the separation of chromosomes, allowing for the prediction of genetic outcomes using Punnett squares.
