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.
