Answer 1

The statement that best describes why Punnett squares are useful is: **Punnett squares are used to predict all possible allele combinations and their frequencies in offspring.** This captures the primary purpose of Punnett squares in genetics, where they help visualize the potential genetic combinations resulting from a particular cross between two parents.
