    Punnett Square

    Week 3
    5th of Feb, 2024
    Punnett Square
    Objectives:
    Construct and complete a Punnett Square to
    find the possible genotypes and phenotypes of
    offspring.

    Keyword:
    Punnett square, Genotype,
    Phenotype, Homozygous and
    Heterozygous

    Think:
    • Can you count the number of genes in
    your body?
    • Do you know that in our body there are
    around 30,500 genes?
    What is a Punnett Square?
    The tool which uses the
    combination of genes to predict
    the probability of traits showing
    up in offspring.

    Draw a diagram to differentiate between:


    1) Homozygous and Heterozygous.
    2) Phenotype and Genotype.

    4 min
    You know that I have
    Brown eyes
    This is a physical characteristic I have.

    You can see it when you look at me.

    The word PHENOTYPE is used to show


    the physical characteristics.
    BUT…
    Can you know what do I have in my GENES?

    My father has brown eyes.

    My mother has blue eyes.

    So, I have B from my father and b from my mother.

    My GENOTYPE is Bb.
    So phenotype… Then Genotype…
    • Will be the Physical characteristics • Must mean refer to the genes!
    that
    we can see

    P heno for G enotype for

    physical Genes

    Using a PUNNETT SQUARE
    To set up a Punnett square, draw a large
    square, and then divide it into 4 equal
    sections (also squares). It should look
    something like this:
    Using a PUNNETT SQUARE
    You need 2 parents with known genotype.

    Example:

    A red flower (genotype Rr) and a white flower


    (genotype rr) were crossed.

    We will simply write: Rr x rr


    Using a PUNNETT SQUARE

    Place one of the parents on top, and one on the left.

    THE PARENTS’
    ALLELES GO ON THE
    OUTSIDE OF THE
    SQUARE
    DROP THE
    UPPERCASE LETTERS ON THE
    FIRST TOP, INTO EACH
    SQUARE

    MOVE r Rr rr r
    EACH
    LETTER
    ON THE
    SIDE, r Rr rr r
    INTO
    EACH
    SQUARE
    Name the
    PHENOTYPES Parent 1
    of the R r
    offspring
