Detailed explanation-1: -A pedigree, as related to genetics, is a chart that diagrams the inheritance of a trait or health condition through generations of a family.
Detailed explanation-2: -A Punnett square is a handy tool to predict expected progeny outcomes from a specific mating. A Punnett square only works with simply inherited traits (where one or just a few genes control the phenotype i.e., coat color, horned/polled, or many genetic conditions).
Detailed explanation-3: -SmartDraw is the world’s best way to make a pedigree chart.
