The letters represent the alleles, or variations, of a given trait. So for example T might represent tall and t represents short. The capital letter always corresponds to the dominant trait and the lowercase letter corresponds to the recessive trait.

∙ 14y agoIt represents the genotypes of the parent and if the letter is capital it means the trait is dominant and if the letter is lowercase, it's recessive

∙ 13y agoThe alleles of the parents. The two letters on each side are the two alleles of one parent.

What goes on the outside of a Punnett Square?
On the outside of the Punnett Square you put the genotype or two alleles of the parents.
What do the letters along the top and the bottom of the punnett square represent?
The letters to the left are the two alleles (the genotype) of one parent and the letters above is the other parents genotype. If the letter is capital it means the trait is dominant and if the letter is lowercase, it's recessive

What is the Punnett square used to determine?
A punit square is essentially a method to work out the possible offsprings of a cross. The information is presented in a tabular for better understanding. The square is used as a tool in genetics to calculate the genootypic and phenopypic rations of certain crosses. The alleles of the parents are places on the two sides of the square and by filling in the grid, we find out the possible outcomes of the cross and determine the genotypic and phenoypic ratios
What is represented by a pair of lowercase letters such as yt In a punnett square?
a pair of recessive genes

What does the capital letter in a Punnett square represent?
In a Punnett square, a capital letter represents a dominant allele.
How do you use a Punnett Square and what do they do?
A punnett square shows the possible outcomes of a certain trait based on the parents genes. To use the Punnett square, you put pairs of genes in the diagram and then determine the crosses that will come from those combinations. It is useful when dealing with hybrid and dihybrid crosses to determine the genotypic and phenotypic ratios.
