Question

A particular article reported the accompanying data on phenotypes resulting from crossing tall cut-leaf tomatoes with dwarf potato-leaf tomatoes. There are four possible phenotypes: (1) tall cut-leaf, (2) tall potato-leaf, (3) dwarf cut-leaf, and (4) dwarf potato-leaf. Phenotype 1 2 3 4 Frequency 925 288 292 103 Mendel's laws of inheritance imply that p1 = 9/16, p2 = 3/16, p3 = 3/16, and p4 = 1/16. Are the data from this experiment consistent with Mendel's laws? Use a .01 significance level. (Round your 2 value to two decimal places, and round your P-value to three decimal places. can you expained please

) 2 =

p-value =

Explanation / Answer

applying chi square test of goodness of fit:

for above test statistic  2 = 1.43

for above test statistic p value =0.698 ( please try 0.699 if this does not work)
