What is meant by a phenotype ratio in a Punnett square? (1 point)

Question

• the fraction of possible offspring that can be observed to have a trait
• the number of genes that are possible in offspring
O the fraction of possible offspring that contain a certain allele in their genes
• the number of alleles in possible offspring

Answer 1

The correct answer is: the fraction of possible offspring that can be observed to have a trait.

In a Punnett square, phenotype ratios refer to the observable characteristics (phenotypes) of the offspring resulting from the genetic crosses, allowing you to understand the expected distribution of traits.
