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.

Millions of sperm are needed because most of them don't make it up there to the egg. So i'm thinking maybe more sperm means the higher chance of the egg being fertilized.<span />
