**Genetic Outcomes of Cross-Breeding Pink Snapdragon Flowers**When two pink flowers (genotype RW) are crossed, there are four equally likely possible outcomes for the genetic makeup of the offspring. These outcomes are as follows:- Red (RR)- Pink (RW)- Pink (WR)- White (WW)The question is: If two pink snapdragons are crossed, what is the probability that the offspring will be (a) pink, (b) red, and (c) white?**Probability Calculation:**To find the probability of each outcome, we need to consider the Punnett Square for the genetic cross between two RW flowers:- RR: Red- RW: Pink- WR: Pink- WW: WhiteOut of the four possible outcomes:- There is 1 possibility of RR (Red).- There are 2 possibilities of RW/WR (Pink).- There is 1 possibility of WW (White).Thus, the probabilities are:- (a) Pink: \( \frac{2}{4} \) or 50%- (b) Red: \( \frac{1}{4} \) or 25%- (c) White: \( \frac{1}{4} \) or 25%

According to a theory in genetics, if tall and colorful plants are crossed with short and colorless plants, four types of plants will result: tall and colorful, tall and colorless, 4 1 and 16 short and colorful, and short and colorless, with corresponding probabilities of 16' 16 16 In a multinomial experiment, if 10 plants are selected, find the probability that 4 will be tall and colorful, 3 will be tall and colorless, 2 will be short and colorful, and 1 will be short and colorless. i Click the icon to view more information about a multinomial experiment. The probability is. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

As reported by The World Almanac, the top 5 state officials of Oklahoma are Governor (G), Lieutenant Governor (L), Secretary of State (S), Attorney General (A) and Treasurer (T). Suppose that we take a simple random sample without replacement of two officials from the five officials. (a) Find the probability that we obtain the Governor (G) and Treasurer (T). (b) Find the probability that the Attorney General (A) is included in the sample.
A manufacturing plant produces light bulbs in three different colors: red, blue, and green. The probabilities of producing a red, blue, or green bulb are 0.2, 0.5, and 0.3, respectively. If a customer buys six bulbs at random, what is the probability of receiving at least two bulbs of each color?
In a game of chance, there are three boxes: Box A contains 5 red balls and 3 blue balls, Box B contains 7 red balls and 2 blue balls, and Box C contains 4 red balls and 6 blue balls. If a box is randomly chosen and a ball is drawn from it, what is the probability that the ball drawn is red? Consider all boxes are equally likely to be chosen.
A couple plans to have four children. The father notes that the sample space for the number of girls the couple can have is 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4. He goes on to say that since there are five outcomes in the sample space, and since each child is eaually iikely to be a boy or girl, all five outcomes must be equally ieiy. Therefore, the probability of all four children being girls is 1/5. Explain the flaw in his reasoning. The argument is only correct if each child is equally likely to be a boy or girl. O The outcomes are not equally likely. O The sample space has less than 5 possible outcomes. O The sample space has more than 5 possible outcomes.
