Chi-square analysis - Goodness of fit In the laboratory, a genetics student crossed flies with normal long wings to flies with mutant dumpy wings, which she believed was a recessive trait. In the F₁, all flies had long wings. In the F₂, the following results were obtained: 792 long-winged flies 208 dumpy-winged flies The student tested the hypothesis that the dumpy wing is inherited as a recessive trait by performing x2 analysis of the F₂ data. (a) What ratio did the student hypothesis? (b) Did the x2 analysis support the hypothesis? (c) What do the data suggest about the dumpy mutation?
