A genetic theory says that a cross between two pink flowering plants will produce red flowering plants 25% of the time. To test the theory, 100 crosses are made and 33 of them produce a red flowering plant. Is this strong evidence that the theory is wrong? Carry out the appropriate hypothesis test at the 5% significance level. The appropriate hypothesis for this test is H0: x = 0.25 vs. HA: x ≠ 0.25 H0: p̂ = 0.25 vs. HA: p̂ ≠ 0.25 H0: μ = 0.25 vs. HA: μ ≠ 0.25 H0: p = 0.25 vs. HA: p ≠ 0.25
The test statistic is
the p-value is
There enough statistical evidence to conclude that the theory is wrong.

According to genetic theory, a particular cross of two cultivars of sorghum should produce plants with red, yellow, or white seeds in the proportions 9/16, 3/16 and 1/4. Data from an experiment yielded the following results. Red Yellow White Count 216 6785 We wish to assess whether the data agree with the theory. What is the null hypothesis for the test? There is no difference among the colours. The probabilities given by genetic theory are correct. The probabilities are not...

A pink-flowering plant is of genotype RW. If two such plants are crossed, we obtain a red plant (RR) with probability 0.27, a pink plant (RW or WR) with probability 0.48, and a white plant (WW) with probability 0.25, as shown in the table. What is the expected number of W genes present in a crossing of this type? Number of W Genes Present X; Pi 0 0.27 0.48 2 0.25 1 The expected number of white genes (W) is...

A genetic model suggests that 80% of plants grown from a cross between two given strains of seeds will be of the dwarf variety. After breeding a sample of of these plants, 153 were observed to be of the dwarf variety. Suppose that we do a hypothesis test to see if the sample results strongly contradict the genetic model and find the p-value to be 0.0188. What is the meaning of this p-value? (A) If the genetic model is correct,...

3. In a true breeding cross between two orchids, one with pink flowers, and the other with blue flowers, results in all pink-flowered orchids in the next generation. These pink-flowered orchids are allowed to self-pollinate and seed is collected. The seed is planted and the when the resulting plants flower, we observe 38 pink, 10 blue and 2 red-flowered plants. Please explain how flower color is determined in this orchid species while providing the genotypes of P, F1, and F2...
