Predicting Phenotypes and Genotypes
Heterozygous – Is there a predictable result when both parents are heterozygous?
Homozygous – is there a predictable result when both parents are homozygous?
Types of Questions1) Green eyes/ yellow eyed fruit flies
2) Brown/black wolves
3) Find parents genotypes
4) Curly haired babies
5) Parents and grandparents
6) Snakes
7) Donkeys
8) Noses
9) Short/tall
10) Short neck/long neck
11) Short/longue tongues
Punnett Squares
The tool which The tool which uses the uses the
combination of combination of alleles to predict alleles to predict the probability of the probability of traits showing up traits showing up
in offspring.in offspring.
1) Green eyes are dominant and yellow eyes are recessive. The genotype of two
insects are Gg and Gg.
Complete a Punnett square!
Genotype and Phenotypes
Genotypes
What are the chances that the offspring will have the following genotypes?
GG?
Gg?
gg?
Phenotypes
Give the percentages of the offspring which will have the following phenotypes:
Green eyes _____Yellow eyes _____

What % of the young would have GG? (1 out of 4) 25%

2) Show the result of crossing (mating/breeding) two wolves.
The female is heterozygous Bb and the male is homozygous bb.
Complete a Punnett square!
What % of young would be black and what %
would be brown?
Black = 50 %Brown = 50 %

Answer
When you have tried it…
The parents would be Bb and Bb and both would have
brown eyes!
4) Curly hair is dominant, and a
couple both have curly hair. What are the chances that their
children will have curly hair?
A. All of the babies B. At least 75% of the babies
C. At least 50% of the babies
D. None of the babies

Even if the parents were heterozygous for curly hair…
75% of the offspring would have curly hair (CC or Cc – both of these genotypes give the phenotype of curly hair)
5) What percent of your genes come from
each parent?
50%
5) ContinuedWhat % of genes come from each grandparent?
25%
