Probability

Probabilities are mathematical measures of likelihood. In other words, they’re a way of quantifying how likely something is to happen. To find out about the use cases of probabilities in genetics, read , and return here afterward.

Variations on Mendel's Laws

Mendel's laws include extensions, exceptions, and revisions. Learn about them by reading, and return here afterward.

Multiple Alleles, Incomplete Dominance, And Codominance

Mendel's laws have different outcomes than expected when applied to real-life cases due to many specific factors. To learn about them, read , and return here afterward.
