The letters in each box of a punnet square tells us the allelic composition of gametes produced by each parent organism.

  • According to this question, a horticulturist wants to produce geraniums with specific characteristics.

  • She knows that the trait of red flowers is governed by the allele R i.e. RR and Rr while the trait of white flowers is governed by the allele r i.e. rr.

  • A punnet square is a square-shaped table used to predict the genotype of the offsprings of a cross using the allelic combination of their gametes.

  • Therefore, the letters in each box of a punnet square tells us the allelic composition of gametes produced by each parent organism.
