student crossed a female worm homozygous for the dpy-17 e164 allele with a wild-type male worm heterozygous for dpy-17 e164. He then scored all of the developing eggs/larva for the Dpy phenotype. He found 88 with the Dpy phenotype and 98 wild type.  Do a Chi square test on phenotypic data to determine if your data supports the hypothesis that the mutation segregates as a single-gene mutation.  Show your work in a table and include                                                            Null hypothesis Χ2 value dof p value
