Probabilaty, is actually spelled Probability. Probability is a number to be used to determine a chance of any occasion, such as a Coin-toss, with the probability being %50 of landing on heads/tails. Probability is used in genetics to determine the chance of a offspring having a mother(or father)'s trait. It is used with Punnet squares to determine the chance of a offspring having a parent's trait or allele combination.
