[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 811271, member: 1683"] You are right again dun! As the Genetics will prove, over time, the ratio of 1 to 4 is correct, but the larger number of matings (for example up in the thousands!) using the same individuals will "prove" closer to the 1-4 ratio. The first several 'hundred" progeny (using figures only and not necessarily 'live' animals) could be either black or red, and that would THROW the geneticIsts into a blue funk, and then the following 800 to 1000 could be the opposing color (either black or red). That would prompt the witnesses to claim that ( . . .Figures don't lie, but liars figure!. . .) But the 1 - 4 ratio would still fall true to form, given enough matings to justify the Mendalian Law.
