Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

A Punnett square is a graphical representation used in genetics to predict the possible genotypes of offspring in a cross between two individuals. It is named after Reginald Punnett, a British geneticist who developed the method. In a Punnett square, the genotypes of the parents are represented on the top and left sides of the square. The possible combinations of alleles from each parent are then filled in the cells of the square to show the potential genotypes of their offspring.
