The "forked-line" method, using multiplication rather than combination, is an alternative to this mechanism. Using this method, one can visualize the Hardy-Weinberg principle. The results of this method, created by a friend of Hardy, can be translated into ratios or percentages. However, this method will not give accurate results if the genes involved do not follow Mendel's laws of inheritance. This table-based method that uses the genetic traits of parents to predict the genetic traits of their children. For 10 points, name this method of predicting the results of--for example--breeding pea plants with purple versus white flowers and predicting how many offspring of each color will result.
