Predicting Traits

 There is a 50% probability. Probability means how likely it is that something will happen. The probability that something will happen can be calculate by mathematics.In genetics you can use a table to help predict inherited trait.The table is called Punnett square. This table is used to predict the outcome of crossing different forms of a trait. The Punnett square have letters. The capital letter is for dominant and the lower case for recessive.
A pedigree is a chart used to trace the history of traits in a family. In a pedigree some individuals are called carriers. A carrier is an individual factor who has inherited the factor  for a particular trait but who does not show that trait.
The pattern of inheritance is the incomplete dominance. Incomplete dominance results neither of the two forms of a trait completely masks the other.
