Question

After making the Punnett square for the P-generation, you should have come up with the probabilities of the offspring having the combination of traits for the tail and scales. Write the probabilities down in a table. Assign a range of random numbers between 1 and 10 000 to each of the combinations produced in the Punnett square. The range must correspond with the percentage of each combination. Write the assigned ranges down in a table. For example: each of the combinations has a 25% chance of being produced. Thus, combination 1 will have a range of 1 to 2 500, combination 2 will have a range of 2 501 to 5 000, combination 3 will have a range of 5 001 to 7 500, and combination 4 will have a range of 7 501 to 10 000.

P-generation:
Fish 1: BbTt (heterozygous black scales, heterozygous long tail) Fish 2: BBtt (homozygous black scales, heterozygous
long tail)
Punnett Square:
BT Bt bT bt
BT BBTT BBTt BbTT BbTt
Bt BBtT BBtt BbtT Bbtt
bT bBTT bBTt bbTT bbTt
bt bBtT bBtt bbtT bbtt
The probability of traits for the offspring is:
• Black scales:
●
o 3/4 (75%) probability of having black scales (BB or Bb)
o 1/4 (25%) probability of having blue scales (bb)
Long tail:
o 3/4 (75%) probability of having a long tail (TT or Tt)
• 1/4 (25%) probability of having a short tail (tt)
Combining both traits, the possible offspring and their probabilities are:
BBTT (black scales, long tail) - 3/16 (18.75%)
• BBTt (black scales, long tail) - 3/16 (18.75%)
• BbTT (black scales, long tail) - 3/16 (18.75%)
• BbtT (black scales, long tail) - 3/16 (18.75%)
• BBtt (black scales, short tail) - 1/16 (6.25%)
• BbTt (black scales, long tail) - 3/16 (18.75%)
• Bbtt (blue scales, short tail) - 1/16 (6.25%)
• bbTt (blue scales, long tail) - 1/16 (6.25%)
