I need help with these practice bio questions! (Gr. 11 Bio) 1) Ms. K has blonde hair, a recessive trait. Her husband has brown hair, a dominant trait. Her second daughter has blonde hair. How is this possible? Use a punnett square to show how the genotypes of Ms. K and her husband could produce a blonde hair child. Include genotypic and phenotypic frequencies. 2) Explain with both proper terminology and a punnett square, why it is not possible for two white pea flowers (white is a recessive trait) could produce a purple flower. 3) Explain with both proper terminology and a punnett square why recessive traits can remain “hidden” in generations. Be sure to explain the difference between phenotype and genotype.
