This should be in the biology section. A Punnett square is a table to show all the possible outcomes of two parents mating. Specifically it deals with the genotypes and genetic combinations going from known parents to unknown potential offspring.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Punnett square is a diagrammatic representation which involves a square that is used to predict the genotype of the offsprings after the cross breeding process. It was named by the Reginald Punnett. This diagram is drawn by the biologists so as to know the probability of occurrence of a particular genotype in the offsprings.
