Can Mendel's laws be used to predict the outcomes of genetic crosses? 1. State a claim that answers the question.

2. Support your claim with evidence. Remember that your evidence is the data that you have collected during the investigation.

3. Describe how Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment and Law of Segregation allowed us to predict the outcome of this cross.

a. Describe each law.

b. Explain how each law leads to the production of gametes that are represented on the Punnett Square.

c. How many possible different gametes could be made by each parent?

d. How many different genotypes and phenotypes are predicted by the Punnett Square?
