Inheriting two b alleles confers the _____ of blue eyes. According to the Punnett square, offspring from these two parents have a _____ chance of inheriting one B allele and one b allele. Individuals that inherit these two alleles are _____ for the B gene. Inheriting Bb confers the _____ of brown eyes.Explanation / Answer
The punnet square given above is a result of test cross between Bb and bb. In this square we see that the progeny consists of 50% Bb (heterozygotes) and 50% bb (homozygous recessive).
According to punnet square, offsprings from these two parents have a 50% chance of inheriting two b alleles. Individuals that inherit two b alleles are homozygous recessive.Inheriting two b alleles confers the phenotype of blue eyes.
According to punnet square, offsprings from these two parents have a 50% chance of inheriting one B allele and one b allele. Individuals that inherit these two alleles are heterozygous .Inheriting Bb alleles confers the phenotype of brown eyes.
