(Hint: use a Punnett square) MacBook Air

Solution

According to the information, the genotype of parents are:

Parent 1: PPSs

Parent 2: Ppss

Thus the Punnet square becomes:

Thus the correct genotype becomes:

PPSS=0

PPSs= 4

PpSs= 4

Ppss= 4

PPss=4

It can be seen that none of the progeny will be homozygous dominant for either of the traits. However, it can be seen that all the offsprings will be occuring in a multiple of 4 thus leading to appearance of an equal number of individual for all the possible genotypes. This gives choice 2 as the correct answer.
