    Study Notes

    Genotype and Phenotype

    • A genotype is heterozygous when it has two different alleles for a trait, e.g., Aa.
    • An organism's physical appearance is called its phenotype.
    • The genotype of a trait is the specific set of alleles an individual possesses.

    Punnett Square

    • A Punnett square is a graphical representation of the possible genotypes of offspring from a cross between two parents.
    • A Punnett square shows the probability of different genotypes and phenotypes in offspring.

    Probability

    • Probability can be expressed as a decimal, percentage, or ratio.
    • Probability cannot be expressed as a sentence or a word.

    Genotype Combinations

    • In a cross between Aa × Aa individuals, only one box of the Punnett square will show an offspring that is AA.
