Solving a Trihybrid Cross with the Probability Method

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

This procedure solves a trihybrid cross's offspring probability directly from the multiplication and addition rules, without a forked-line diagram or a 64-square Punnett square.

Watch for

This method depends entirely on the three loci assorting independently — a cross involving linked genes cannot be solved this way.
