Task: Using the line fork method, determine the probabilities in ratio form of all possible phenotype combinations of the traits in the biological offspring of the couple. Include the solution

Definition Definition Observable physical traits or characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genetic makeup (genotype) as well as environmental factors. These traits can include anything from eye color or height to behavior or disease susceptibility. Understanding an organism's phenotype is important in fields such as genetics, medicine, and ecology.
