As parent's genotypes are missing here, alleles cannot be estimated in offspring, but it is possible to use the example above to estimate it.

<h3>What is a Punnett square?</h3>

A Punnett square is a diagram used in genetics to estimate genotypic and phenotypic frequencies in offspring from a given genetic cross.

In order to estimate offspring allele frequencies, we need to know parental genotypes by means of a Punnett square.

For example, if both parents are heterozygous for a gene whose alleles are called 'A' and 'a', the Punnett square in offspring is:

        A         a

A     AA      Aa

a     Aa       aa

In this case, 50% of offspring will be heterozygous (genotype 1/2 Aa), whereas 25% will be homo-zygous dominant (1/4 AA) and 25% will be homo-zygous recessive (1/4 aa).

In conclusion, as parent's genotypes are missing here, thereby alleles cannot be estimated in offspring, but you can use the example above to estimate it.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Empirical evidence of his ideas

Explanation:

The scientific process involves the formulation of hypotheses that enable to answer questions about the real world, and then to carry out experiments or observations that are used to confirm (or reject) such predictions. In the last 160 years, Darwin's ideas on 'descent with modification' have constantly been subjected to experimental assessment, and obtained data confirmed his observations. For example, molecular evidence based on the DNA and RNA -which constitute the genetic material of all living organisms- has shown the conservation of this process. In consequence, molecular evidence has been used to construct 'evolutionary' phylogenetic trees from DNA/RNA sequences. Moreover, evidence in genetics has shown the critical role played by mutations in the mechanism of natural selection proposed by Darwin, thus also confirming his theories. These are only some examples, and supporting evidence confirming Darwin's ideas has been collected from different research fields ranging from ecology to molecular biology.
