MrMudd183 · Answer

Depends on how the genes come out of the punnetsquare, give me a minute to work it out

MrMudd183 · Answer

If she is looking for the (XX) gene percentage, then it's 25%
If she is looking for the (Xx) gene percentage, then it's 50%
But if she is looking for the (xx) gene percentage, then it's 25%

MrMudd183 · Answer

It all depends on the gene combination she is looking for

boredfr · Answer
