A genetic experiment with peas resulted in one sample of offspring that consisted of 441 green peas and 165 yellow peas. a. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate of the percentage of yellow peas. b. Based on the confidence interval, do the results of the experiment appear to contradict the expectation that 25% of the offspring peas would be yellow?
