Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Punnett squares are standard tools used by genetic counselors. Theoretically, the likelihood of inheriting many traits, including useful ones, can be predicted using them. It is also possible to construct squares for more than one trait at a time.
Detailed explanation-2: -Penetrance refers to the probability of a gene or trait being expressed. In some cases, despite the presence of a dominant allele, a phenotype may not be present.
