To determine the genotype of parent 2 using Mendel’s laws and a Punnett square, we typically look at the offspring’s genotypes produced by the cross.
1. Homozgyous recessive (ff): This indicates both alleles are recessive.
2. Heterozygous (Ff): This indicates one dominant and one recessive allele.
3. Homozygous dominant (FF): This indicates both alleles are dominant.
You’d compare the ratios of the offspring genotypes from the Punnett square. If all offspring show the dominant trait, parent 2 could be FF. If some offspring show the recessive trait, parent 2 might be Ff or ff depending on the observed ratios.
If you know the offspring’s trait ratios, that would help narrow it down further! Please check the Punnett square details to clarify. If you need more in-depth assistance, feel free to explore our services page.
