"LaShamanda has a heterozygous big bootie, the dominant trait. Her man Fontavius has a small bootie which is recessive. They get married and have a baby named LaPrincess," the biology assignment prompts students.

The assignment then continues to ask "What is the probability that LaPrincess will inherit her mama's big bootie?"

LaShamanda: Bb

Fontavius: bb

Possible genotypes for LaPrincess: Bb Bb bb bb

Therefore, P(LaPrincess has a big booty) = 0.5
