Best Answer

This depends on what punnet square b looks like. A guinea pig is homozygous if its two alleles are both dominant or both recessive. Usually, the homozygous parent is the one with either the two capital letters in the genotype or the two lowercase letters. Heterozygous is when there is one uppercase letter and one lowercase letter in the genotype.

Do you really inherit eye color from your parents?

Through the X chromosome, usually from a mother, (whom does not show any signs of colour blindness, yet she is a CARRIER of the X chromosome) passed down to son. Males usually get this because they only posses ONE X, in their XY life.


Two brown guinea pigs are crossed All but one of the offspring is brown The one is white Why?

The Allele that causes guinea pigs to be brown in color is a dominant one and the white guinea pig's alleles are recessive. The brown guinea pig had two dominant alleles for brown color and the white guinea pig had two for white. Since offspring get one allele from each parent they have one dominant brown allele and one recessive white allele. Since the dominant trait is the one that is going to be apparent, it would only make sense for all the offspring to be brown in color.


Symbol used on a pedigree to repesent a male who does not have the trait?

An empty square. One that does have the trait would have the square filled in with a color.


Why is it difficult to use a Punnett square to determine certain traits such as eye color?

The alleles for eye color result different combiantions of different eye-color shades from the offspring's parent.
