To complete the Punnett Square, we need to show all possible combinations of alleles that can be inherited from each parent.
Let's assume that 'T' represents the dominant allele for height (tall) and 't' represents the recessive allele for height (short).
Parent 1: Tt
Parent 2: Tt
To create a Punnett Square, we'll write the possible alleles from Parent 1 on the left side and the possible alleles from Parent 2 on the top.
| T | t |
-----------------
T | TT | Tt |
-----------------
t | Tt | tt |
In the Punnett Square:
- The top left cell represents the combination of both parents' dominant alleles (TT).
- The top right and bottom left cells represent the combination of one parent's dominant allele and the other parent's recessive allele (Tt).
- The bottom right cell represents the combination of both parents' recessive alleles (tt).
This Punnett Square shows the possible genotypes of the offspring resulting from the cross of two heterozygous tall plants (Tt).
In a genetics laboratory, two heterozygous tall plants (Tt) are crossed. Complete the Punnett Square below.(6 points)
