"Mendel, through his study of plant reproduction, concluded that typically two genes (or alleles) were responsible for the way in which a particular characteristic was expressed in the organism's phenotype. He also realized that within these two alleles, there was both a dominant and a recessive trait. A dominant trait, such as a widow's peak, is expressed whether the two alleles are both a dominant trait or whether one is dominant and one is recessive. However, for a recessive trait to be expressed in the offspring, it is essential that both alleles be recessive.
One way to determine the probability of a child having a certain set of traits is by using a Punnett square. Created by Reginald Punnett, it allows a person to tell the probability of certain traits by crossing one set of genes from the father with one set of genes from the mother. This gives an indication of what sort of phenotypes the offspring will posses. Ironically, it is not always the dominant trait that is most expressed in the human population. The allele for Huntington's disease is one example of a dominant trait that is not frequently expressed in the population"
Ha! I have no freaking idea if this is even right, when it comes to science, Im just as clueless as you are!
It is not possible to predict the sex of one individual offspring because since men have XY chromosomes, there is always a 50% chance that the offspring will be either a boy or a girl.
I don't think its actually possible. I mean men have XY chromosomes and the female have XX so it can be a 50/50 chance. It can be male or female.
No because you don’t know what the speed detmerman’s
The Punnett square is a diagram that is used to predict the outcome of a particular cross or breeding experiment. It is used by biologists to determine the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype.
By knowing precisely the masses of nearby objects, it is possible to calculate quite accurately how gravity will affect a satellite.

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.
yes beacuse male has xyand female have xyx
No because you don’t know what the speed detmerman’s
Yes but not accurately.
when working with science, the tool you use to predict the possible traits an offspring might have is called an Punnett Square.

You can predict water temperature accurately by using a water thermometer.
Geneticists use the Punnett square to predict the outcome of a particular breeding experiment. They predict the potential genotypes of the offspring of two parents with known genotypes.
With accurate predictions it can be possible to warn people about a possible tornado and give them a chance to get to safety.
