Chapter 2, Problem 13EQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The meaning of chi-square value of 1.005.
Introduction:
Chi-squared test is a simple test that explains the data obtained from the genetic crosses which have a unique pattern of inheritance. It is used for solving genetic problems by deducing a hypothesis for the given data. Chi-square is, in fact, a hypothesis testing pattern.

Practice Problem:
You cross a true-breeding pea plant with red flowers to a true-breeding pea plant with white
flowers. All of your offspring have red flowers. Which gene is dominant? Why? What is the
genotype of your offspring?
You then cross the offspring to each other. What ratio do you expect? Why?
You count 1000 plants and look at their flowers. Your results are as follows:
740 red
260 white
Does this follow a simple Mendelian inheritance pattern? Why or why not?

A genetic engineer was attempting to cross a tiger and
a cheetah. She predicted a phenotypic outcome of the
traits she was observing to be in the following ratio:
4 stripes only: 3 spots only: 9 both stripes and spots.
When the cross was performed and she counted the
individuals she found 50 with stripes only, 41 with
spots only and 85 with both.
What is the computed chi-square value?

In a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 352 green peas and 474 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an
offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of
4
that was expected?
The probability of getting a green pea is approximately

- #2 a) If sex and eye colored were viewed as two different phenotypes with male being dominant over female (or vice versa), then Mendelian ratios of a dihybrid cross may explain the ratios that Morgan got. Here is some hypothetical data based on the ratios gotten by Morgan and the expected Mendelian ratios for a dihybrid F1 cross. Perform a Chi-square test (separate scrap paper) with the null hypothesis being that the "Morgan observed ratios" are within chance from the Mendelian ratios. State whether the Chi-square test supports or rejects the null hypothesis and explain. (Be sure to include the X2 value, degrees of freedom, critical value.) Hint: what did Morgan discover?
