First, What are the genotypes of the parents?


They are heterozygous for both traits, which means they have which of the following genotypes?




You know that the female has both dominant alleles on one chromosome of a homologous pair and both recessive alleles on the other. You also know that the male has one dominant and one recessive allele for the two different traits on each chromosome of the pair. Which of the following images represents the chromosomes of the male and female snow leopards?




Now, what gametes will the female produce?




...and what gametes will the male produce?




Now that you have the gametes for both male and female snow leopards, perform a punnett square to determine the offspring produced:





Your punnett square should look similar to the one below. If it does not, review the material on gamete formation and how to set up the punnett square and try again.
