Let's say that the genotype of the couples are:

Cc and Cc. Notice that one is capital and the other is not. This is what shows that they are heterozygous. We put this now in a Punnet Square:
    C   c
C CC Cc
c  Cc  cc

This means that there is a 75% chance that their children will have a cleft-chin and 25% will not.

The probability is the same with each off-spring. So the answer would be 75% chance the same probability for all subsequent children.

Lyrx [107]
<span>The limbic system is most likely responsible for emotional responses in REM sleep. Within this system are the amygdala, hipocampus, thalamus, hypothalamus, basal ganglia, and cingulate gyrus. Respectively, these are responsible for such reactions as: emotional response, the memory center, learning, changes in emotional reactivity, physical movements, and smells, sights, reactions to pleasant memories, reactions to emotional pain, and regulation of behavior.</span>

What are the punnet squares really used for and do they work 
podryga [215]
Punnett squares are used to find out the possible genotypes of the next generation after a cross and thus find the phenotype too according to the predicted genotypes.

For example, parents with genotypes of Rr and rr cross together, we can use the punnett square to list out the possible genotypes of their children which are Rr and rr.

You can never predict the exact genotypes of the next child but you can find out the possibility if they carry a certain trait. All the genotypes of the child are in random but you at least know what phenotypes they'll have.

How do plants and other organisms capture energy from the sun?
Delvig [45]
<span>Plants algae and bacteria capture sunlight after capturing they use metabolism to convert them in to energy. They do this when electrons get excited and jump off chloroplast into thylakoid membrane, the electrons have to be replaced so they steal them from CO2 and all that is left is oxygen and they release it.</span>
