Punnett square Word Problem 2
Science Connection
In chickens, neither the normal-feathered gene [i][b]F[/b][/i] nor the frizzle-feathered gene [b][i]f[/i][/b] is dominant. So chickens whose feather genes are [b][i]FF[/i][/b] will have normal feathers. Chickens with [b][i]Ff[/i][/b] will have mildly frizzled feathers. Chickens with [b][i]ff[/i][/b] will have extremely frizzled feathers.
Create a Model
The Punnett square above shows the possible results of crossing two chickens with mildly frizzled feathers. Find a model that can be used to represent the Punnett square and write the model as a polynomial.
