In an experiment of breeding mice, a geneticist has obtained 120 brown mice with pink eyes, 48 brown mice with brown eyes, 36 white mice with pink eyes and 13 white mice with brown eyes. Theory predicts that these types of mice should be obtained with the genetic percentage of 56%, 19%, 19% and 6% respectively. Test the compatibility of data with theory, using 0.05 level of significance.
