When a scientist conducted a genetics experiments with peas, one sample of offspring consisted of 921 peas, with 698 of them having red flowers. If we assume, as the scientist did, that under these circumstances, there is a 3/4 probability that a pea will have a red flower, we would expect that 690.75 (or about 691) of the peas would have red flowers, so the result of 698 peas with red flowers is more than expected. A) If the scientist's assumed probability is correct,
