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. Mendel's laws of inheritance imply that ?1 = 9/16, ?2 = 3/16, ?3 = 3/16, and ?4 = 1/16. Are the data from this experiment consistent with Mendel's laws? Use a 0.01 significance level.

A particular article reported the accompanying data on phenotypes resulting from crossing tall cut-leaf tomatoes with dwarf potato-leaf tomatoes.
