What percentage of the possible types of offspring had the same phenotype as the parents
Certain traits can remain dormant and still be passed on to offspring. If a child has traits that neither parent possesses, chances are that it could have come from farther down the line.

The letters on the outside are the genotypes of two parents. Inside are the possible genotypes of possible offspring of the two
Mendel Diagrams. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from one parent and a recessive gene from another, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring get a recessive gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the recessive gene.
