Genetics in Bikini Bottom

The video tutorial provides an overview of genetics using characters from Bikini Bottom. It covers basic concepts like genotypes and phenotypes, and explains how to use Punnett squares to predict inheritance patterns. The tutorial includes various scenarios involving characters like SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward, and concludes with problem-solving exercises related to genetics.
