In birds, having long feathers (L) is dominant to short feathers (l). A homozygous dominant bird and homozygous recessive bird mate. After creating a punnett square, give the genotypes and phenotypes of the four resulting offspring (include the number of each)

The four are Ll

The four will have long feathers

Explanation:

A Punnett square is a graphical representation of all possible genotypes of an offspring that is likely to arise from a particular cross or breeding event. To create a Punnett square, knowledge of the genetic composition of the parents is highly required. The two things a Punnett square can tell you are the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring. In its simplest form, the Punnett square consists of a square divided into four quadrants. A Punnett square allows the prediction of the percentages of phenotypes in the offspring of a cross from known genotypes.

The genotypes of the four offsprings are Ll, Ll, Ll and Ll. This implies that they are all heterozygous. They will all have long feathers since the long feather (L) is dominant in all the species. In terms of phenotype, they will all have long feathers.
