Detailed explanation-1: -The Punnett square is a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment. It is named after Reginald C. Punnett, who devised the approach in 1905. The diagram is used by biologists to determine the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype.

Detailed explanation-2: -A Punnett square allows the prediction of the percentages of phenotypes in the offspring of a cross from known genotypes. A Punnett square can be used to determine a missing genotype based on the other genotypes involved in a cross.

Detailed explanation-3: -A Punnet square is a monohybrid cross and is going to be used to compare the traits of the example given earlier. For traits that have either two capital letters or two lowercase letters are known as a homozygous trait and for traits that have alternating letters are known as heterozygous traits.

Detailed explanation-4: -The possible gene combinations in the offspring that result from a genetic cross can be determined by drawing a diagram known as a Punnett square.
