A variety of pea plant known as Blue Pamlico produces a tall plant with blue seeds. A second variety of pea plant called Mulberry Dwarf produces a short plant with white seed. The two varieties are crossed and the seeds are collected. All the seeds are white. When planted, the seeds all produce tall plants. These tall plants are allowed to self-fertilize. For the F2 generation, 94 plants had blue seeds and were tall, 272 plants had white seeds and were tall, 31 plants had blue seeds and were short, and 89 plants had white seeds and were short. part a) Which phenotypes are dominant and why? part b) What would be the expected distribution of phenotypes in the F2 generation if the alleles of the genes assort independently? part c)Perform chi square analysis on the distribution of phenotypes in the F2 generation. ? part d ) Are these results consistent with the hypothesis of independent assortment? Explain using the results of your chi squared analysis. please please show work. i really need to understand this and I need helppppp
