XX = female and XY = male

Children receive on sex chromosome from each parent. Colorblindness is a recessive trait on the X chromosome. Try a Punnett Square.

Right with the three traits.

Use Punnett square for OO and AB parent genotypes.

The foal is neither colored like the father or mother, but somewhere in between. Hmmmm, what could that mean?

Are the flower colors dominant or recessive?

I hope this helps.
