### Genetic Experiment with Peas: Confidence Interval AnalysisA genetic experiment with peas resulted in one sample of offspring that consisted of 446 green peas and 164 yellow peas.#### a. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the percentage of yellow peas.- **Calculate the confidence interval**: Express the percentages in decimal form. \[ \text{Input boxes: } \_\_\_ < p < \_\_\_ \] (Round to three decimal places as needed.)#### b. Based on the confidence interval, do the results of the experiment appear to contradict the expectation that 25% of the offspring peas would be yellow?- **Choose one of the following:** - \( \bigcirc \) No, the confidence interval includes 0.25, so the true percentage could easily equal 25%. - \( \bigcirc \) Yes, the confidence interval does not include 0.25, so the true percentage could not equal 25%.

From the provided information, Sample size (n) = 446 + 164 = 610 From which 164 yellow peas so…

uppose a researcher collected data with n = 200 and came up with a sample mean of 83 and 95% confidence interval (78, 88). If the researcher collected another sample from the same population with n = 200, there would be a 95% chance that the researcher would come up with a confidence interval of (78,88) for this new data set. True False
When can a meta-analysis combine the data from all studies into one hypothesis test? This can be done for any meta-analysis This can only be done when similar methods were used to sample the same population. This can only be done when computing confidence intervals not hypothesis tests. This can be done when similar methods were used to sample different population.
