What would happen if SpongeBob crossed a Poofkin with red flowers with a Poofkin with blue flowers. Create a Punnett square to determine the chances of each flower color. (R represents a red gene and B represents a blue gene.) How many of the plants would have Blue flowers? %

THE NUMBER OF PLANTS WITH BLUE FLOWERS (BB) = 0%

Explanation:

The Punnett square is a pictorial  square representation that aids the determination of the genotypes of a specific cross or breeding research study. It is coined after Reginald C. Punnett, who developed the method.

The pictorial square representation is employed by biologists to evaluate the probability of an offspring possessing a specific genotype.

R - Red gene

B - Blue gene

Red - RR

Blue - BB

Purple -RB

Punnet Square

     |  R     |   R

___|____|_______

B     | RB    | RB

___ |____ |______

The plants with red flowers (RR) = 0%

The plants with purple flowers (RB) = 100%

THE PLANTS WITH BLUE FLOWERS (BB) = 0%
