Answer

A vasectomy is simply the cutting and tying back of the vasa deferentia. The procedure has a failure rate of around 0.1% to 0.2% for the first year. Assuming he and the partner are otherwise normal and do not use any contraception, there is an 85% probability of pregnancy during the same time. So there is roughly a 0.15% chance of pregnancy occurring (in the first year after vasectomy).

What is the probability that a paternity test will be correct?

As part of a paternity test it includes a probability value to determine the probability that the man in question is biological father or not. If the probability value is 99.99% and the mother, child and man in question have all been tested then the man is the father. If it is less than that then the man is not the father. It is impossible to get a probability value of 100% unless every man in the world were tested. As it stands a paternity test is as accurate as its probability value. Therefore a paternity test with a probability value of 99.99% has a 99.99% chance of being correct. A paternity test is very accurate and does a great job of showing a childs genetic parents. The test is 99.9% accurate.


How can you relate probability and punnett squares?

The probability of an event is easily calculated by dividing the number of squares that predict the event by the total number of squares. For example, if a man and woman were having a child, and the man was tall with brown hair and the woman short with blonde hair, the probability of the child being, say, tall with blonde hair, would be 1(number of squares with tall/blonde as a result) divided by 4(total number of squares), which is .25, or 25%

What does probability of paternity means?

Probability of paternity (POP) means how likely the man is to be the father. If the result is a 99% (or anything over 64, haha) POP I would say that he's the daddy.
