A true-breeding plant with red flowers was crossed with a true-breeding plant with white flowers. The F1 progeny all had a new flower color, pink. The F1 plants were inter-crossed, and produced 44 red, 135 pink, and 61 white flower plants.
(4 pts.) What is the most likely mode of inheritance being exhibited in these phenotypes. State your hypothesis and provide your reasoning, which can also include why other modes of inheritance are unlikely (process of elimination). Do not assign any genotypes at this point.
(16 pts.) Using gene symbols of your choice, provide genotypes for all individuals in the P, F1, and F2 generations. If you have to make an arbitrary choice about which set(s) of alleles to assign to a certain phenotype, be sure that the logic of your assignment is consistent across your entire answer. Show your work.
(7 pts.) Test your hypothesized mode of inheritance using a chi-square test. Consider p < 5% (or 0.05) the cut-off for statistical significance. Show your work and be sure to state your conclusion based on the test.

Explain in great detail how to determine if MALDI-MS can resolve protein ions from a section of brain tissue and within a cell. To make these determinations, the only other information to work with is the dimensions of the tissue and the diameter of the cell.

In a flowering plant species, snapdragons, variation in flower color is determined by a single gene. RR genotype individuals are red, Rr genotype individuals are pink, and rr genotype individuals are white. In a cross between two heterozygous (Rr) individuals, the expected ratio of red:pink:white-flowered offsprings is 1:2:1. Biologists did two cross experiments, and ask whether the results differ significantly from the expected.
Part 1: The first cross experiment ends up with 40 offsprings, including 10 red, 21 pink, and 9 white.
1) Write the null and alternative hypothesis for the chi-square test.
2) Use R to conduct the chi-square and determine the p-value.
3) Interpret the p-value and state the conclusion from your test.
Part 2: The second cross experiment ends up with 4000 offsprings, including 1000 red, 2100 pink, and 900 white.
1) Use R to conduct the chi-square and determine the p-value.
2) Now can we reject the null hypothesis? Explain

Make a discussion ,for each of the following, is the industry perfectly competitive? Referring to market share, standardization of the product, and/or free entry and exit, explain your answers in detail.
Also, come up with your own example of a competitive market. What would you expect to happen to profits in this market over time (short-run versus long-run outcomes in perfect competition) and why? Use this industry as an example to explain the competitive process in detail.

Suppose you manage a local grocery store, and you learn that a very popular national grocery chain (Whole Foods or Walmart) is about to open a store just a few miles away. Use the model of monopolistic competition to analyze the impact of this new store on the quantity of output your store should produce (Q) and the price your store should charge (P). What will happen to your profits? Please show graphically and explain your reasoning in detail. For example, how and why do profits change? How can that be seen on the graph?
What could you do to defend your market share against the new store?
