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."

Punnett squares visually represent the potential genetic combinations that can result from a cross between two organisms, allowing for predictions about the genotypes and likely phenotypes of the offspring based on the alleles contributed by the parents.
