Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A Punnett square shows the predicted genotype and phenotype ratios in the offspring of two parents. For an autosomal recessive disorder, the Punnett square will indicate the percentage of all children that are likely to be affected by the disorder. It will not provide information on the percentage of affected males or females specifically, as both genders have an equal chance of inheriting the recessive gene. The number of children born to the two parents is also not provided in a Punnett square.
