Detailed explanation-1: -A Punnett square is a chart that allows you to determine the expected percentages of different genotypes in the offspring of two parents. A Punnett square allows the prediction of the percentages of phenotypes in the offspring of a cross from known genotypes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Probability and Punnett Squares A Punnett square is a special tool derived from the laws of probability. It is used to predict the possible offspring from a cross, or mating between two parents.
Detailed explanation-3: -Punnett squares predict the probability of different genotypes in offspring, given the original genotypes of the parents. Punnett square is used to determine the possible genotypes of the progeny when a cross is done.
