In an experiment you do a chi-square test comparing observed and expected progeny. Your calculated chi square is 0.375. With 1 degree of freedom, this corresponds to a probability between 0.9 and 0.5. What does this mean?

In letter B: If the map distance equals the number of recombinant/total of offspring, wouldn't it be 24/806 x 100? Wouldn't we add both recombinants? Can you explain letter C? I don't grasp that concept well. And since I'm using my question already, would you be able to answer D. Thank you!
From a presumed testcross of 2 plants of genotype Aa x aa (in which A represents red and a represents white petals on a plant) we get 5000 red petal plants, and 5400 white petals plants. Using the Chi-squared test, what chi-squared value do we get for this?
A three-point cross was conducted, 8500 progeny were evaluated, and the genetic map was determined to be:Gene J----3mu----Gene K-----5mu-----Gene LA total of 8 double cross-over progeny were identified among the 8,500 evaluated. What is the coefficient of coincidence?
In a three-point testcross the nonrecombinant progeny are A+B+ C+ and a b c. The double crossover progeny are A+ B+ c and a b c+. Which gene is in the middle and why? Please answer with lots of explanation of how you arrived to the answer
Hibiscus plants have different varieties of flowers. In an instance, both the red and white flowers showed that they are incompletely dominant with each other. If the flowers that were produced in the Hibiscus experiment was cross bred with each other, what is the ratio of their genotype? Explain. A) 1:3 B) 1:1:1:1 C) 1:2:1 D) 2:2
The F1 from a cross of AABB x aabb is testcrossed, resulting in the following phenotypic ratios: AB 308 Ab 190 ab 292 aB 210 (1) what are the genotypes for the listed phenotypes? (2) why aren't the phenotypes in a 1:1:1:1 ratio? (3) what is the frequency of recombination between genes A and B?
Crossing two green corn plants results in 2/3 green progeny and 1/3 white progeny. If you cross 2 green progeny with each other, your expected phenotypic ratio is: The correct answer is 2 green and I white, but I don't know why.
A cross between two red flower plants produces 2/3 progeny that are red and1/3 progeny that are yellow. What is the genotype of the red flower? Explain these unexpected ratios.
Two gene loci, A and B, are on separate chromosomes and alleles A and B are dominant over alleles a and b. A codes for long branches, a codes for short branches. B codes for green leaves and b codes for blue leaves. A branch diagram or a punnett square would be useful for you to work this problem. What percentage of the progeny will have short branches and blue leaves from a cross AaBb × Aabb? Group of answer choices 1/8 1/4 1/2 3/4
What would the punnett square look like for the question below? If an F1 eggplant in figure 5.2 is used in a testcross, what proportion of the progeny from this cross will be white?
Assume we have two plants of genotypes “AabbCcDdEe” and “AaBbCcddEe” and that from the cross, we want to recover a progeny of genotype “aabbccddee”. Estimate how many progeny plants one needs to grow in order to stand a reasonable chance of obtaining the desired genotype.
In corn, the cross WW ee FF × ww EE ff is made. The three loci are linked as follows:Assume no interference. a. If the F1 is testcrossed, what proportion of progeny will be ww ee ff? b. If the F1 is selfed, what proportion of progeny will be ww ee ff?
