Peanut Allergies. In the article “Food Allergy Advice May Be Peanuts” (Science News, Vol. 174, No. 12, pp. 8–9), N. Seppa reports that early exposure to peanuts seems to lessen the risk of nut allergy. Of 4000 Jewish children sampled in Britain, 1.85% had peanut allergies; and of 4600 Jewish children sampled in Israel, where early peanut consumption is more common, 0.17% had peanut allergies. The researcher chose Jewish children in both countries to limit genetic differences between groups. a. Is this study descriptive or inferential? b. Is this study observational or experimental?
In a flowering plant species, snapdragons, variation in flower color is determined by a single gene. RRgenotype individuals are red, Rrgenotype individuals are pink, and rr genotype individuals are white. In a cross between two heterozygous (Rr) individuals, the expected ratio of red:pink:white-flowered offsprings is 1:2:1. Biologists did two cross experiments, and ask whether the results differ significantly from the expected. (a) The first cross experiment ends up with 40 offsprings, including 10 red, 21 pink, and 9 white. Write the null and alternative hypothesis for the chi-square test. Use R to conduct the chi-square and determine the p-value. (The expected proportion must sum up to one) Interpret the p-value and state the conclusion from your test.
A local school board wants to estimate the difference in the proportion of households with school-aged children that would support starting the school year a week earlier, and the proportion of households without school-aged children that would support starting the school year a week earlier. They survey a random sample of 40 households with school-aged children about whether they would support starting the school year a week earlier, and 38 households respond yes. They survey a random sample of 45 households that do not have school-aged children, and 25 respond yes. The school board plans to construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of households who would support starting the school year a week earlier. Are the conditions for inference met? A) Yes, the conditions for inference are met. B) No, the 10% condition is not met. C) No, the randomness condition is not met. D) No, the Large Counts Condition is not met.
A comparison between species: Biologists wish to compare the prevalence of a genetic mutation across two species of Neema Toads. In a sample of 6 Neema Toads of Species I, 0.8% had the mutation while in a sample of 14 Neema Toads of Species II, 0.7% showed the mutation. Is there significant evidence to suggest a difference in the prevalence of the mutation across the two species? Conduct a hypothesis test at a significance level of α=0.01α=0.01.a) The hypotheses for this test are: H0: pI - pII = 0Ha: pI - pII ≠ 0 H0: pI - pII = 0Ha: pI - pII < 0 H0: pII = 0.008Ha: pII ≠ 0.008 H0: pI - pII = 0Ha: pI - pII > 0 What is the test statistic for this test?test statistic = (Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.)What is the p-value for this test?p-value = (Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)The decision reached is Fail to reject H0 Reject H0 and accept Ha As such, the final conclusion is that The prevalence of the mutation is the same for both species.

Researchers conducted trials to investigate the effects of color on creativity. Subjects with a red background were asked to think of creative uses for a brick; other subjects with a blue background were given the same task. Responses were scored by a panel of judges and results from scores of creativity are given in the accompanying table. Higher scores correspond to more creativity. The researchers make the claim that "blue enhances performance on a creative task." Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Complete parts (a) and (b). Click the icon to view the summary statistics. a. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that blue enhances performance on a creative task.

A survey of 1000 adults from a certain region asked, "If purchasing a used car made certain upgrades or features more affordable, what would be your preferred luxury upgrade?" The results indicated that 58% of the females and 51% of the males answered window tinting. The sample sizes of males and females were not provided. Suppose that of 600 females, 348 reported window tinting as their preferred luxury upgrade of choice, while of 400 males, 204 reported window tinting as their preferred luxury upgrade of choice. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. Is there evidence of a difference between males and females in the proportion who said they prefer window tinting as a luxury upgrade at the 0.05 level of significance? State the null and alternative hypotheses, where π1 is the population proportion of females who said they prefer window tinting as a luxury upgrade and π2 is the population proportion of males who said they prefer window tinting as a luxury…
4. In one of Mendel’s early genetics experiments, he observed two traits on each of 556 garden peas: shape (Round or Angular) and Colour (Yellow or Green). The results are listed in dataset “Mendel”. According to his model, the four classes should occur in a 9:3:3:1 ratio. Do the data support that presumption? Do a relevant hypothesis test at the alpha of 0.05 level of significance. 4.1.

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 randomized, double-blind clinical trials of a new vaccine, children were randomly divided into two groups. Subjects in group 1 received the new vaccine while subjects in group 2 received a control vaccine. After the second dose, 125 of 746 subjects in the experimental group (group 1) experienced fever as a side effect. After the second dose, 82 of 627 of the subjects in the control group (group 2) experienced fever as a side effect. Does the evidence suggest that a higher proportion of subjects in group 1 experienced fever as a side effect than subjects in group 2 at the a= 0.01 level of significance? Find the test statistic for this hypothesis test. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Answer the following:
A local school board wants to estimate the difference in the proportion of households with school-aged children that would support starting the school year a week earlier, and the proportion of households without school-aged children that would support starting the school year a week earlier. They survey a random sample of 40 households with school-aged children about whether they would support starting the school year a week earlier, and 30 households respond yes. They survey a random sample of 45 households that do not have school-aged children, and 25 respond yes. Assuming the conditions for inference have been met, what is the 90% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of households that would support starting the school year a week earlier? Find the z-table here. 0.75(1-0.75), 0.56(1-0.56) O (0.75 - 0.56) ±1.65 45 40 0.75(1-0.75) 0.56(1-0.56) O (0.75 - 0.56) ±1.96, 85 85 O (0.75 - 0.56) ±1.65, 0.75(1-0.75) 0.56(1-0.56) + 40 45 O (0.75 - 0.56) ±1.96 0.75(1-0.75)…
