Question

in a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 444 green peas and 14 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting arn offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of 3/4 that was expected? The probability of getting a green pea is approximately Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed) Is this probability reasonably close to 3/4? Choose the correct answer below O Yes, it is reasonably close O No, it is not reasonably close. Click to select your answert(s) of of 0P

Explanation / Answer

p(Green peas) = n( green peas) / n( total peas)

= 444 / (444+14)

= 444/458

= 0.9694

This probability is approximatly (0.9694-0.75 / 0.75) = 30% more than expected.

Therefore,

No, this is not reasaonably close.
