Part 1: Completing the Punnett Square

1. • You will see a blank Punnett square divided into 9 boxes.

   • Drag and drop the parent alleles (P1 gametes) into the specified boxes according to the instructions:

     • Place the first P1 gamete in box 2 and the second P1 gamete in box 3.

     • Place the second set of P2 gametes in box 4 and box 7.

     • Using the F1 genotype combinations, drag and drop the combinations that correspond to the parent gametes. If correct, they will turn green.

Part 2: Validating Genotypic and Phenotypic Ratios

1. • After completing the Punnett square, look at boxes 5, 6, 8, and 9 for the resulting allele combinations.

   • Use the dropdown menus or text fields to enter the genotypic and phenotypic ratios based on these results.

   • Click the "Analyze results" button to check if your ratios match the expected results.

Step 3: Analyze Your Results

1. Review the feedback provided by the generator.

   • If your results are correct, you’ll see a message confirming your accuracy.

   • If not, review the material provided to understand where you might have gone wrong.

   • Make corrections as needed and try again.

Step 4: Reflect and Report

1. After successfully completing the generator, take note of the following:

   • The genotypic ratios (e.g., AA, Aa, aa).

   • The phenotypic ratios (e.g., dominant trait -  A_ vs. recessive trait - aa).

2. Write a summary of your findings and any observations you made about how the allele combinations affected the outcomes.

Important Tips:

• Double-check your allele placements: Ensure you follow the specific instructions for placing P1 gametes.

• Review Mendel's laws: Understanding dominant and recessive traits will help you correctly interpret the results.

• Use hints wisely: If you’re stuck, the generator provides helpful hints that can guide you to the correct solution.
