Ff and FF
200
In this situation, both alleles will appear in the heterozygous individual.
DoDominance
200
In DNA A always pairs with _____ and C always pairs with _____.
T ; G
200
How are punnet squares and pedigrees different?
Punnet squares show possibilities for the offspring and pedigrees show how traits and or diseases are passes down.
