Question

A population of wookies is polymorphic for the fur color, which is controlled by two loci. 230 have black hair, 64 have brown hair, and 32 have yellow hair. You test suspect that the epistatic interactions between the two loci are reponsible for this ratio and wish to test that hypothesis using a X^2 test.

a) What is the most likely epistasis?

b) Complete the following X^2 table. For the first three columns, enter your answer as intergers with no demical points. For the last column, enter your answer to two deimal points e.g 4.36

Fur Observed Expected O-E (O-E)^2 (O-E)^2/E
Black 240        
Brown 64        
yellow 32        
total 336        
        X^2
