Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty. Problem: If two people who are both heterozygous for Huntington's disease (an autosomal dominant trait) marry, what is the probability that they will have three children, all of which are normal? A) 0.140 B) 0.422 C) 0.250 D) 0.016*
