It's used commonly to estimate the traits of a child of two parents. For example, the probability of the child having blue eyes, or curly hair, or even having genetic disease.

What is the probability of having a child with attached earlobes when an individual with attached earlobes mates with an individual heterozygous for free earlobes?
Attached earlobes are a recessive trait. When one parent has attached earlobes and the other is heterozygous for free earlobes, the chances of any particular offspring having attached earlobes is fifty percent.
A child is born with attached earlobes but both parents have hanging earlobes. What are the genotypes and phenottypes fot the parents?
The parents would each have the genotype Ee (heterozygous for earlobe attachment) and the phenotype for hanging earlobes. The child inherited the attached earlobe allele from both parents, resulting in the AA genotype and the phenotype for attached earlobes.
