Question
- clyde has a homozygous dominant genotype for his hand (hh), and amelia has the recessive trait of no clyde has a homozygous dominant genotype for his hand (hh), and amelia has the recessive trait of no amelia phenotype probability (%) hand: 100% no hand: 0%
Step1: Determine Amelia's genotype
Since Amelia has the recessive trait (no hand), her genotype must be homozygous recessive, so \( hh \) (assuming \( H \) is dominant for hand, \( h \) recessive for no hand).
Step2: Set up the Punnett square
Clyde's genotype: \( HH \) (homozygous dominant), so he can only produce gametes with \( H \).
Amelia's genotype: \( hh \) (homozygous recessive), so she can only produce gametes with \( h \).
The Punnett square will have all offspring with genotype \( Hh \) (since \( H \) from Clyde and \( h \) from Amelia).
Step3: Determine phenotypes
The dominant allele \( H \) is expressed in \( Hh \), so all offspring will show the dominant trait (hand). Thus, the probability of "hand" phenotype is \( \frac{4}{4} \times 100\% = 100\% \), and "no hand" is \( 0\% \), which matches the given table. (If the question was to confirm or complete this, the Punnett square analysis shows the results are correct.)

The Punnett square analysis confirms that all offspring will have the genotype \( Hh \), resulting in a 100% probability for the "hand" phenotype and 0% for "no hand", consistent with the provided table. (If the task was to verify or explain the phenotype probabilities, this is the conclusion.)
