Some suggestions, referring to dominant and recessive genes is misleading, the forms of a gene are called alleles (these can be dominant, recessive, codominant, etc). Also, in heterozygotes, the convention is to always put the dominant allele first (Bb, not bB). Then, it is easier for students to see is multiple combinations are the same or different. I've been teaching genetics for years... misconceptions, sloppy vocab develops easily.
It is a great video but my school sends me math and other science video's and I keep having to dislike them bc I don't want them to show up in my recommends.
Dominant basically means that it will always take over recessive. In a punnett square, you only need one dominant(for example a capital T), you need Tt or TT in order for the kid to get the dominant trait. For recessive, you need two smaller case T's.
Conventionally the dominant allele will be a capital letter and the recessive will be lower case (i.e. B vs b). If you are given a word problem, it should specify one trait as dominant and one as recessive, and then you assign letters. Does that make sense?

1:07 Or... the wife just cheated you never know
that was my answer i started screaming she cheated she cheated
What's the name of the music? Nice video, keep good work!
LOL why does the baby have to be crazy?
@Kevin Woods u just said I know right right
Thank you for creating these! I am planning on using this to add to my notes in Biology.
freckles AND dimples are dominant traits
Song?
Well done, but freckles are a dominant trait....
who cares? At least we get the point right?
The comments on this video are great 10/10
thanks to this im gonna pass biology
Well this was simple and helpful thanks a bunch
It is a great video but my school sends me math and other science video's and I keep having to dislike them bc I don't want them to show up in my recommends.
Thumbs up and a share!!
Wow so cool
thank i needed dis
You can predict humans by just punnett squares and puzzles???? When will I master this.. I'm gonna die, of despair!!!!!!
1:37 OR hear me out- the women slept with the mail man
so you had a baby?
what are Dominant and Recessive
go to a video called Genetics Vocabulary Tutorial

Samuel Kim this was commented 2 years ago but how do we now whether a trait is recessive or dominant

very nice video .i like your video
good for ms science
1:16 because all blondes are crazy
oooooooo ok i kind of get it
1st and 3rd and wrong.
lame
