Appreciate the effort, it would be 13/16 tho since the ones have M give 3/4, the ones having no small k (aka the ones having both big K - KKmm, excluding all the big M) give 1/16 (1/4 KK * 1/4 mm), 3/4 + 1/16= 13/16
However if we assume both alleles need to be small k since small k is recessive, it would give 15/16. You are absolutely correct in that way! Thanks for your comment!
@@rodriguezkyana : Hi, thanks for the great question! In statistics, If two events need to both happen (an "and question") for a certain outcome to occur, we multiply the two events/probabilities together. If only one of the events needs to happen (an "or question"), we add the two events/probabilities together.
15/16 for the last problem?

@@Elisemedicalscience why do we add instead of multiply?
