Probabilty is to predict the chance of something happening. So probabilties can be used in genetics to predict the chances of things.
For example, if to pea plants mate, one is short and the other is tall, then you could use a Punnett Square to predict what the children would look like. A Punnett Square predicts the possible combination of alleles.
So, in this case (T= tall/dominant and t= short/recessive), if you crossed TT with tt, the offspring would all be tall, or Tt.

What is the chart used to show offspring probabilities?
sexual reproduction
Who do you Add Probabilities?
I do not add probabilities to anybody!
Does the weather report use the empirical probabilities or theoretical probabilities in its weather forecast?
Empirical probabilities.
What function do you use to calculate the probabilities of compound events?
To calculate the probabilities of compound events, you can use the multiplication rule or the addition rule, depending on whether the events are independent or mutually exclusive. The multiplication rule is used when the events are independent, and you multiply the probabilities of the individual events. The addition rule is used when the events are mutually exclusive, and you add the probabilities of the individual events.
How is probability used in genetics?
probability is used in genetics to determine the possibilities of offspring having a certain trait
How are Punnet Sqaures used in genetics?
they show the probabilities of how a person's baby is going to look like or it's genotypes.
List ways to express mathematical probability in genetics?
Probability formulas can be used to predict the probabilities that specific alleles will be passed on to offspring.
Definition of the Product rule in genetics?
States that the joint probability of two independent events is the product of their individual probabilities
What is the chart used to show offspring probabilities?
sexual reproduction
How come you do not need to have three actual coins to compute the probabilities for these outcomes?
Because the theory of coin flipping is well understood and so theoretical probabilities can be used.
How can some strategies be used to find experimental probabilities?
A tree diagram!
