Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 2CQ
A cross is made between individuals having the following genotypes: AaBbCCDd and AabbCcdd. What is the probability that an offspring will be AAbbCCDd? Hint: Don’t waste your time making a really large Punnett square. Make four small Punnett squares instead and use the product rule.
