he Punnett square shows the cross for a particular trait between a homozygous dominant parent and a heterozygous parent. What is the probability the offspring will be heterozygous for this trait? 25% 50% 75% 100%

50%

Explanation:

Let's make a Punnett square to represent this, with X representing our dominant allele and x our recessive.

One homozygous dominant parent = XX

One heterozygous parent = Xx

      X    X

X   XX  XX  

x    Xx  Xx

So two out of our four outcomes are heterozygous for the trait. That means the answer is B. 50%.
