    Hi guys,

    I'm slowly getting the hang of genetics and punnett squares. I'm a little confused about the coding though.

    For example, this is one of the practice problems I was working on: Bumble bee + Bumble bee. (s=spider, n=noprmal, p=pastel)

    -------sp------sn------pn------nn

    sp----spsp----spsn----sppn----spnn

    sn----snsp----snsn----snpn----snnn

    pn----pnsp----pnsn----pnpn----pnnn

    nn----nnsp----nnsn----nnpn----nnnn

    Here's my intepretation of the codes:
    spsp = Bumble(homo spider)?
    snsp = bumble bee?
    pnsp = bumble bee?
    snsn = spider
    nnsp = bumble bee?
    snnn = normal het spider
    pnpn = pastel
    pnnn = normal het pastel
    nnnn = normal

    The ones marked with question marks are the ones i'm not certain of.

    Does the order of the letters matter? eg. spsp = bumble, but sspp = killer

    Thanks for your help
