An individual homozygous dominant for the thumb shape mates with an individual homozygous recessive for thumb shape. What are the predicted genotypic and phenotypic ratios for the cross?

Answer:

A punnet square can be described as a diagram which is made to check the outcomes of a cross.

To check the probability of the offsprings of a cross between homozygous dominant thumb shape parent with a homozygous recessive thumb shape parent, let's draw a punnet square:  

        t              t

T    Tt            Tt

T    Tt            Tt

The results of the punnet square depict that:

Genotype: All of the offsprings will be heterozygous for the thumb shape trait. Tt will be the genotype.

Phenotype: All of the offsprings will show the thumb shape like the thumb shape of the dominant parent.
