Question

short fur is dominant over long fur. based on the punnett square shown, how many puppies can we expect to have long fur? four two one zero

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the genotypes

Since short fur (S) is dominant over long fur (s). The Punnett square shows both parents have genotype Ss.

Step2: Analyze the Punnett square

The Punnett square for Ss × Ss:

	S	s
s	Ss	ss

The genotypes are SS:Ss:ss = 1:2:1. Long - fur puppies have genotype ss.

Step3: Count the number of ss

From the Punnett square, there is 1 out of 4 squares with ss genotype.

Answer:

Zero
