Question

  1. assume that one of squidwards sons, who is heterozygous for the light blue body color, married a girl that was also heterozygous. create a punnett square to show the possibilities that would result if they had children.

a. list the possible genotypes and phenotypes for their children.
b. what are the chances of a child with light blue skin? ___%
c. what are the chances of a child with light green skin? ___%

Explanation:

Step1: Crear el cuadro de Punnett

Sea \( B \) el alelo para la piel azul claro y \( b \) el alelo para la piel verde claro. Los padres son \( Bb \times Bb \).

$$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline & B & b \\ \hline B & BB & Bb \\ \hline b & Bb & bb \\ \hline \end{array}$$

Step2: Determinar genotipos y fenotipos

  • Genotipos: \( BB \), \( Bb \), \( bb \)
  • Fenotipos: \( BB \) y \( Bb \) (piel azul claro), \( bb \) (piel verde claro)

Step3: Calcular probabilidades

  • Para piel azul claro (\( BB \) o \( Bb \)): \( \frac{3}{4}=75\% \)
  • Para piel verde claro (\( bb \)): \( \frac{1}{4} = 25\% \)

Answer:

A. Genotipos: \( BB \), \( Bb \), \( bb \). Fenotipos: Piel azul claro (\( BB \), \( Bb \)), piel verde claro (\( bb \)).
B. \( 75 \)
C. \( 25 \)
