My homage to Mendel. I tried to stay true to the kind of charts geneticists have been doing for decades — the big difference here was that I substituted little stick figures for the boxes and circles. One thing I didn’t like: I kept the slash that geneticists use for deceased subjects, but here, those look like school crossing guard sashes. I’ve done flow charts but I don’t think I’ve ever done genetics or family trees before. So this was interesting.
