The punnet square that represents a cross between a mom who is heterozygous for dimples and a dad who is homzygous for no dimples is Dd × dd.

What is a punnet square?

A punnet square is a graphical representation used to determine the probability of an offspring expressing a particular genotype.

According to this question, the gene encoding dimples in humans is involved.

  • Heterozygous mom will have a genotype of Dd
  • Homzygous dad will have a genotype of dd

Therefore, the punnet square that represents a cross between a mom who is heterozygous for dimples and a dad who is homzygous for no dimples is Dd × dd.
