==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
A '''genetic cross diagram''' is a [[diagram]] that can be used to show the probability of [[offspring]] [[heredity|inheriting]] certain [[Phenotype|phenotypical]] traits.
===About Genetic Cross Diagrams===
: '''Genetic cross diagrams''' can be used with breeding to determine if a parent has a [[homozygous]] pair of [[Dominant Allele|dominant]][[allele]]s or a [[heterozygous]] pair of [[allele]]s. If two parent [[organism]]s produce enough [[offsping]] the fraction of [[offspring]] with particular [[phenotype]]s can indicate the [[genotype]] of the parents.
