Say a rare species of butterfly has two versions of color called blue (B) and white (b). You want to repopulate the species for the wild, but also breed and sell them. You find the blue butterflies are the most appealing to customers and want to breed them for the maximum profit. Blue is BB and Bb, while white is bb. State the percent change of getting blue butterflies from the following crosses: 5. Blue (BB) and White (bb) 6. Blue (Bb) and White (bb) 7. Blue (BB) and Blue (BB) 8. Blue (Bb) and Blue (Bb) 9. White (bb) and White (bb)

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
