(a) at most 8

(b) fewer than 10

(c) more than half of the 12 peas

(d) between 7 to 10 (inclusive)

A genetic experiment involving peas yielded one sample of offspring consisting of 409 green peas and 140 yellow peas. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that under the same circumstances, 23% of offspring peas will be yellow. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P-value method and the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distributionWhat are the null...

In peas, tall (T) is dominant to short (t), yellow (Y) is dominant to green (y) and round (R) is dominant to wrinkled (r). A purebreeding plant with tall, green and wrinkled pea phenotypes is crossed to a purebreeding plant that is short and makes yellow, round peas. When peas from this F1 generation are crossed, what is the probability of obtaining a short plant that makes yellow, wrinkled peas in the F2?

A scientist conducted a hybridization experiment using peas with green pods and yellow pods. He crossed peas in such a way that​ 25% (or 142​) of the 568 offspring peas were expected to have yellow pods. Instead of getting 142 peas with yellow​ pods, he obtained 144. Assume that the rate of​ 25% is correct. a. Find the probability that among the 568 offspring​ peas, exactly 144 have yellow pods. b. Find the probability that among the 568 offspring​ peas,...

In peas, yellow seed pod (Y) is dominant to green seed pod (y), and inflated seed pod (N) is dominant to constricted seed pod (n). These two loci are NOT linked. A true-breeding pea plant with yellow, inflated pods is crossed to a true-breeding plant with green, constricted pods. The F1 progeny are self-fertilized. What is the probability of obtaining a plant that produces yellow, constricted seed pods in the F2?

Pod characteristics are effected by a number if genes. Pod color (green dominant to yellow), pod surface (rough is recessive to smooth), and pod width (wide is dominant to narrow). Pod color and pod surface are 10 map units away. True breeding plants with green, wide, and smooth were mated with yellow, narrow, and rough. This plant was test crossed. If 1000 testcross progeny were examined, how many are expected to have yellow, wide, and rough pods?
