What would be the genotype(s) and phenotype(s) of the offspring when a heterozygous corn plant is bred with a homozygous plant with purple kernels? Show your work in a Punnett square and explain why you would get the proposed offspring (demonstrate your understanding of inheritance in terms of genotype and phenotype). 1. B What would be the genotype(s) and phenotype(s) of the offspring when a heterozygous corn plant is bred with another heterozygous corn plant? Show your "reasoning" with a Punnett square.

Expert Solution
Introduction:
- Punnett Square is a chart that displays the genotypes of offspring from a genetic cross.
- Heterozygous means having multiple alleles of a gene, resulting in the expression of multiple traits.
- Homozygous means having two identical copies of a gene, resulting in only one trait being expressed.
- When an allele masks the expression of a recessive allele in a heterozygous individual, it is referred to as dominant.
- A recessive allele is one that is masked by a dominant allele in a heterozygous individual.
