In the coin sex lab, we flipped the coin to see how many times we recieved the traits out of ten. The coins' sides served as possible phenotypes. In the end, we found that our results correlate with what was expected. In the dihybrid cross, we expected to get the 9:3:3:1 pattern ( 9 brunettes with brown eyes: 3 brunettes with blue eyes: 3 blondes with brown eyes: 1 blonde with blue eyes). Our results were 10:3:2:1, with one less brunette with blue eyes and one more brunette with brown eyes. Overall, our results mirrored our expectations. Probability can only help with traits that have clear phenotypes. In addition, probabilty doesn't factor in the environment. This helps account for traits we see everyday and how siblings share some traits but not others. Probability is translated through the situation of three siblings having a widow's peak and one that doesn't. This unit revolved around genetics and how offspring are affected by their parents.
