Answer:
Perfectly in theory, except there is chance involved
Explanation:
The Punnet square is a diagram that allows scientists to predict the possible outcomes of the offspring when the genotypes of the parents are known. This is in line with Mendel's principles, and from a theoretical point of view would match up perfectly. However, it all works based on <em>probability</em>.
However, inheritance is always down to chance. Of your parents 2 alleles, you always have 50:50 chance of inheriting one of the allele. Overall, this is what is predicted in punnet squares.
However, think about flipping a coin. There is always 50:50 chance of getting heads, but that doesn't mean it is impossible to flip a coin and get tails 10 x in a row. It is just less likely. So in reality, observations might deviate from the theory.
Answer: Experiment.
Explanation:
Suppose that we have two related variables, A (independent) and B (dependent)
We could design an experiment where we can manipulate the value of A at will, and we also can observe how the variable B changes.
This is called an experiment, where the objective is to see how the variable B is related to the variable A, and then try to make a model that explains this relationship.
Answer:
It is B, data.
Explanation:
Data is what you collect from an experiment.
Polypeptide is another name for a protien.
