Two heterozygous white rabbits (brown fur is recessive) are crossed.
1. List the parent genotypes.
2. Draw and fill in a Punnett square.
3. List the offspring genotypes and phenotypes.
Answer (3)
**Parent's genotypes **are Bb and Bb andn the offsprings genotypes after crossing them will be BB, Bb and bb while phenotypes of 3 white rabbits and 1 brown.
What is a punnett square?
The **genotypes of a specific cross **or breeding experiment are predicted using the Punnett square , a square diagram. It bears **Reginald C. Punnett's **name, who developed the method in 1905. Biologists use the figure to calculate the likelihood that a child will have a specific genotype.
A person's **genotype **is made up of all the **alleles they have for a certain gene . The sum of a person's attributes **or observable characteristics is their phenotype . Unlike phenotype, which is only impacted by genotype, genotype is directly inherited from a person's parents.

Assume B is white, b is recessive brown
Bb x Bb
B b B BB Bb
b Bb bb
Genotypes: BB, Bb, bb Phenotypes: 3 white, 1 brown
The parent genotypes for the cross are both Bb (heterozygous). Using a Punnett square, the potential offspring include 1 BB, 2 Bb, and 1 bb, resulting in a phenotype ratio of 3 white rabbits to 1 brown rabbit.
