Video Summary

Mendelian genetics is the study of how genes are passed from parents to their offspring. Genes are inherited in pairs, one gene from each parent. Punnett squares are a tool used by geneticists to predict the possible combinations of genes that could be inherited from a particular mating. To use a Punnett square, you first need to determine the genotypes of each parent. Then you can use the Punnett square to predict the possible genotypes of their offspring.
