The $F_{2}$ genotypic ratio of this monohybrid cross is 1:2:1. As the Punnett Square explains, out of the 4 combinations, the probability of homozygous dominant character is $\frac{1}{4}$ , that of heterozygous dominant character is $\frac{2}{4}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ , and homozygous recessive character is $\frac{1}{4}$ .
