Jade creates a Punnett square to show the cross between a parent with freckles and a parent without freckles. The completed Punnett square shows the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring. Jade, however, made a mistake as she was making the Punnett square. In which part of the Punnett square did Jade make her error? Be sure to explain your answer.

Answer and explanation:

Jade's error occurs in the top-right square of the Punnett square. In this square, she identifies the phenotype as freckles, but to have freckles, the offspring must have at least one dominant allele. The offspring in this box are ff. Because there is no dominant allele present, the offspring will not have freckles.

i might be a little late but heres the answer for everyone who needs it!

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).
