What do the letters inside the punnent square stand for?

How are the genotype and phenotype of parents related to the genotype and phenotypes of offsprings?
The parents can pass on only the alleles of their genotypes to their offspring. Therefore, the offspring genotypes and phenotypes are dependent solely upon the alleles inherited from the parents.
What is the probability that an individual has one parent with huntington disease will also have Huntington disease?

What is a punnett square used to predict?
A Punnett square is used to lay out the possible genotypes of offspring based on the genotypes of the parents being bred. From this, the probabilities of certain phenotypes and genotypes can be determined.

That depends entirely on the genotypes of the parents.
