Shows how to solve trihybrid (and by extension, higher-order) crosses using the forked line, or branch diagram, method.

The music is Maynard Ferguson's cover of "Baker Street," off of his "Carnival" album.

  • The very end result shows the genotypes with their frequencies, and the rest of the video explains how to get that result.

  • what happens if i have

    AA x aa ?? dont you get all Aa , how would you set that up???

    1Aa?

    or like aaxaa? is that even possible...

  • @hellokittydimaggio

    That's a simple monohybrid cross between two pure-breeding lines. That's too basic for the videos I have made. Also, since you are a beginner at genetics, you might want to use a Punnett square. You can search for those terms (monohybrid and/or Punnett) for videos.

  • this video looks really helpful and I would like to watch it all but it keeps stopping..

  • @lainemichelleallen

    I just watched it all the way through and it worked fine. Your Internet connection may have acted up while you were trying to watch it.

see all

  • How Did you get 16 for the denominator? Should it be 64? Im CONFUSED

  • Thank you so much for this video and such a clear explanation.

  • You just save my life. Thank u sooooooOOOOOOOOO much!

  • you made my life so much easier!!! i hate genetics but you really made it less complicated! i wanna see more stuff abt fruit flies and all...thanks ALOT!!!

  • @seifer128 Multiply the probabilities. So say the frequency of a genotype for one gene is 3/4 and another genotype for another gene is 1/2. The frequency of BOTH occurring in one organism is 3/8.

  • God bless you

  • how will i know if that there is 27/64 9/64 9/64 9/64 3/64 3/64 3/64 1/64? please explain it further..

  • Helped with my AP Biology homework. Thanks.

  • i want to make sweet love to you for this
