The principles of probability can be used to predict the out comes of genetic causes because the actual fertilization of a particular plant or animal is as the results of thousands to millions of possible sperm and eggs interactions each of which is unique.
Probability is a number that describes how likely it is that an event will occur.
No. The principles of probability are not deterministic. They cannot predict exact answers to anything.
A number thar describes how likely
Yes it can .
Probability is related to inheritance because in Mendel's experiments, the probabilities were important. Each time Mendel repeated the cross, he observed that the principles of probability applied to his experiment.
A genetic diagram shows the possible outcomes of a cross of two individuals' genes. The top line displays the phenotypes of one generation, and the bottom line displays the predicted phenotypes of the offspring.
DNA is the genetic code
Variation in and of itself does not affect the traits seen in the overall population. This is because gene frequency and subsequent changes in phenotype generally occur only when the phenotype is "selected" for or against in a population. Granted increased genetic variation is the potential for change, however just as in physics potential has to be acted on for change to occur.The population of a species represents it's entire gene pool. The Hardy-Weinburg Principle states that the frequency of a gene remains the same as long as it is neither selected for or against.Smaller populations can change rapidly due to genetic drift and isolation (which is more of a twist of random probability than selection, like getting heads ten times in a row tossing a penny) selection translates into change in a larger population.
Parent AA and Parent aa have children. All children are Aa Parent Aa and Parent Aa have children. 1AA:2Aa:1aa probability with each child. This is recombination of the most direct/simplest kind.

the principal of probability can be used to predict the outcomes of genetic crosses By:Erica k. Hawkins from Indianola Ms
Whenever Mendel performed a cross with pea plants, he carefully categorized and counted the many offspring. Every time Mendel repeated a particular cross, obtained similar results. For example, whenever Mendel crossed two plants that were hybrid for stem height (Tt), about three fourths of the resulting plants were tall and about one fourth were short. Mendel realized that the principles of probability could be used to explain the results of genetic crosses.
Probability. (probability is how likely an event is to occur.)
A Punnet Square.
The punnett square which is mainly about probability of genetic crosses
Gregor Mendel said that a punnet square shows all the possible combinations of alleles to create traits and appearances for offspring of two parents such as guinea pigs and even humans. He showed this in his many tests with pea plants.MIk3 WAS HERE------------------------>X
By showing all possible outcomes of how alleles or the genotype could be. A prediction. It helps us by showing the possibilities of many things (i.e. brown eyes or blue eyes, blonde hair or brown hair, etc.)
