### Genetic Analysis of Tomato PhenotypesIn a certain variety of tomatoes, for one gene, the allele for purple (A) is completely dominant to the allele for red (a) color. For another independent gene, the allele for bursting (B) is completely dominant to the allele for remaining intact (b) when ripe. A plant of genotype **Aa Bb** is crossed with a plant of genotype **AA Bb**. The progeny resulted in the following numbers of observed phenotypes:- **60** purple, intact- **240** purple, bursting### Instructions for Chi-square TestBased on the expectations for this particular cross, perform a $\chi^2$ test on your scratch sheet and refer to the provided chi-square table of probabilities to answer the following questions:#### Blank #1: Provide the overall chi square value.#### Blank #2: Provide the probability range for the above chi square value.#### Blank #3: In no more than three sentences, concisely state an appropriate conclusion using the terms **significant** or **not significant**. **Chi-Square (χ²) Table of Probabilities**This table provides the critical values for the Chi-Square (χ²) distribution for different degrees of freedom (Df) and probabilities.

The coat color of black bears depends on a gene with two alleles. Allele B is dominant and confers black coat, whereas allele b is recessive and homozygous bears have white coats (albino black bears, I know it sounds weird but it is true). As we know from genetics each bear has two alleles and the coat colors are as follows: BB-black; Bb-black; bb-white. A researcher obtained the following data for the genotypes (BB, Bb or bb) of black bears: Genotype Number of bears BB 42 Bb 24 bb 21 You are performing the following hypothesis test: H0: The genotypes of the bears follow a binomial distribution, with a probability of receiving the b allele equal to the observed proportion of the b allele in the population. HA: The genotypes of the bears do not follow a binomial distribution What is the expected frequency of bears with genotype BB, Bb, and bb? Give the absolute expected frequency (number of bears) not the fraction/proportion of BB bears
An experiment in chicken breeding results in offspring having very curly, slightly curly, or normal feathers. If this is the result of a single gene system, then the proportions of offspring in the three phenotypes should be 0.25, 0.50, and 0.25 respectively. In one such experiment, 93 chickens were born. 20 had normal feathers, 50 had slightly curly feathers, and 23 had very curly feathers. Carry out a test to determine whether the genetic model seems to hold in this setting.
In a May 2011 study, Federal University Hospital in São Paulo, Brazil, 71 healthy pregnant women were separated into a control group and an experimental group. Those in the experimental group engaged in aerobic water exercise throughout their pregnancy whereas those women in the control group did not. After giving birth the neonatal outcome of the children of all women in the study was recorded where a negative neonatal outcome was defined as a hospital stay of more than four days. A set of similar results is shown in the table Group Positive Neonatal Outcome Negative Neonatal Outcome Water Exercise 15 15 Control Group 12 18 A hypothesis test was carried out, yielding a p-value of 0.396.

Suppose a birth defect has a recessive form of inheritance.In a study population, the recessive gene (a) initially has aprevalence of 25%. A subject has the birth defect if bothmaternal and paternal genes are of type a. A further study finds that after 10 generations (≈200 years)a lot of inbreeding has taken place in the population. Twosubpopulations (populations A and B), consisting of 30%and 70% of the general population, respectively, haveformed. Within population A, prevalence of the recessivegene is 40%, whereas in population B it is 10%. Suppose that a baby is born with a birth defect,but the baby’s ancestry is unknown. What is the posteriorprobability that the baby will have both parents from population A, both parents from population B, or mixed ancestry,respectively? (Hint: Use Bayes’ rule.)
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. (Use 2 decimal places.) Phenotype 1 2 3 4 Frequency 926 287 294 103 ?2 = P-value interval A p < 0.0010 B .001 ≤ p < 0.01 C 0.01 ≤ p < 0.05 D 0.05 ≤ p < 0.10 E p ≥ 0.10
In a study of chromosomal anomalies observed in a randomly selected sample of 1200 infertile men with either a zero or low sperm count, a team of researchers assigned the value of 1 for the presence of any chromosomal anomaly in the subject's sperm and the value of 0 for the absence of all chromosomal anomalies in the subject's sperm.Of the 600 men with zero sperm count, 48 had chromosomal anomalies. Of the 600 men with low sperm count, 15 had chromosomal anomalies. The researchers would like to test the hypothesesHo: P1 = P2Ha: P1 does not equal P2where p₁ the true proportion of all men with zero sperm count that have chromosomal anomalies and p₂ = the true proportion of all men with low sperm count that have chromosomal anomalies.What is the z standardized test statistic, for this test?
A study indicates that CB radio use speeds up activity in the brain. As part of a randomized crossover study, 36 participants were fitted with a CB radio device on each ear and then underwent two positron emission topography, or PET, scans to measure brain glucose metabolism. During one scan, the CB radios were both turned off. During the other scan, an automated 40- minute muted signal was sent to the radio on the right ear. The order of when the signal was received (for the first or second scan) was randomized. Comparison of the PET scans showed a minor increase in activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna during the transmission of the automated signal. Was this an observational study or an experiment? Explain why. O The study is an observational study because the reseashers cannot control the response variable during the signal. O The study is an observational study because the researchers only observe values of the response and explanatory variables. O The study is…
A crop researcher investigated the phenotypes that resulted from crossing two different types of cucumber plants. There are 4 possible resulting phenotypes (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 in the data table below). Mendel's laws of genetic inheritance ('the model') suggest that the proportions should be 9/16, 3/16, 3/16 and 1/16 for phenotypes 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively. The classification of a sample of 1400 observations is given below together with the proportions suggested by Mendel's laws of inheritance (the model). Give the degrees of freedom that would be used in a test of whether or not the crossing results in a population that follows Mendel's laws of inheritance. Degrees of freedom =
Sickle-cell anemia is a hereditary chronic blood disease that is extremely severe when an individual carries two copies of the defective gene. It is particularly common in countries plagued by malaria, a parasiticinfection transmitted by mosquitoes. A study in Africa tested 543 children for the sickle-cell gene and also for malaria. In Group 1 which consisted of 136 children with the sickle-cell gene, 36 children had severe malariainfections. Group 2 consisted of 407 children without the sickle-cell gene, and 152 of them had severe malaria infections. Conduct a test to determine if the proportion of severe malaria infections among children withthe sickle-cell trait is different from that among children without. Test at 5% level of significance. Question: What is your p value and t statistic ?
One year at a university, the algebra course director decided to experiment with a new teaching method that might reduce variability in final-exam scores by eliminating lower scores. The director randomly divided the algebra students who were registered for class at 9:40 A.M. into two groups. One of the groups, called the control group, was taught the usual algebra course; the other group, called the experimental group, was taught by the new teaching method. Both classes covered the same material, took the same unit quizzes, and took the same final exam at the same time. The final-exam scores (out of 40 possible) for the two groups are shown in the accompanying table. Find a 99% confidence interval for the ratio of the population standard deviations of final-exam scores for students taught by the conventional method and for students taught by the new method. Assume that both populations are normally distributed. (Note: s₁ = 6.613, $₂ = 5.762, and for df = (19,40), F0.005 = 2.63.) Click…
