What is the Genotype for of the Honeycrisp apple skin?
Use this descriptor for the next 6 questions. The Honeycrisp apple is both crunchy and juicy. The apple also has a very sweet-tart flavor profile. The Honeycrisp has a very thin red skin and is easily punctured. Show all of your work on a separate sheet of paper. be sure to number the Punnett Squares with the question.
In the space below explain how the Honeycrisp received its juiciness characteristics through sexual reproduction (Genetics). You may use Punnett Squares to help construct your explanation. Your explanation should include parents, offspring and alleles of all 3.

Four friends were talking about traits and how human DNA, genes, chromosomes, and the production of specific proteins are related to the traits we see. They each had different ideas about the relationships between the structures and the traits. This is what they said.
Bella: “I think DNA is found on genes and DNA directly affects our traits.”
Kyra: “I think chromosomes are found on genes and the genes make specific proteins that affect the traits that are seen.”
Kurt: “I think genes are found on DNA and the genes are responsible for making specific proteins. The structure of the proteins are what affect our individual traits.”
Joan: “I think proteins are found on chromosomes and chromosomes are found on DNA. The structure of chromosomes are responsible for our traits.”
