please help me with the following question asap please its important!!

 

State your null hypothesis for the flower experiment, giving the probability of a left-handed flower    # and probability of a right-handed flower (assuming right-handed is dominant) and what is the alternative hypothesis?

 

Null hypothesis : 

Alternative hypothesis: 

 

Use a hypothesis testing approach to analyze the problem, below, on the genetics of mirror-image flowers: The mud plantain, Heteranthera multiflora, is hermaphroditic plant (with both male and female sexual organs) that has a simple mechanism to avoid self-pollination. The female sexual organ (style) of the flower deflects to the left in some individuals and to the right in others. The male sexual organ (anther) deflects to the opposite side. Bees visiting a left-handed plant are dusted with pollen on their right side, which is then deposited on the styles of only right-handed plants visited later. In an experiment, plants were crossed in the lab to determine whether left/right flowers is controlled by a single genetic locus. (i.e. do they conform to a simple Mendelian inheritance model?) The expectation, under a simple Mendelian inheritance model, is that the final generation offspring should consist of left- and right-handed individuals in a 1:3 ratio. Think of this expectation according to simple Mendelian inheritance, with right-handed flowers being the dominant trait: First generation genotype [and phenotype]: RR[right] X LL[right] Second generation: RL[right] X RL [right] (All 'RL' genotype): (all right phenotype) Third generation: RR [right], RL [right], LR[right], LL[left] (1:3 ratio left:right phenotypes) Of 27 third generation plants from one such cross, 6 were left-handed and 21 were right-handed. Your goal is to determine whether these data support the simple Mendelian inheritance model?
