This week in science we did our experiment on traits. Our group did eye color, tallness, rightyness or leftyness and hair color. We made punnett squairs and made predictions. We knew that once one child had a trait that anoth child could still have that trait. Our experinent didn't match our predictions exept for one.
We also learned about Mutually Exclusive Events which are when you have consecutive result, it dosent effect the new result.
Ex:
say that im flipping a coin,
hthhhtthhhthththhhhhhthhhhhhhh_???
The next side it lands on dosn't have to be heads because it landed on heads more than it landed on tails viceversa. There is still a 50% chance it will land on either one because it is a compleatly new flip. The same goes with punnett squairs, each birth is a compleatly new "flip" so there is a 25% chance for the child to have any trait possible.
INCOMPLEAT DOMINANCE: This is when a dominant trait is not so dominant so some of the recessive trait could show for example:
A red flower and a whie flower mix and have a pink flower because red+white=pink and the red color dosen't compleatly over rule.
