In case of the genes that assort independently in a test cross, the phenotypic ratio is 1: 1: 1: 1. In the given case, the total number of phenotypes is 400, thus, every phenotype should be 100 each. Since that is not the case, it may be concluded that the genes are not assorting independently.  

Thus, to determine the chi-square = (observed-expected)^2 / expected.  

By putting the values, we get the values of chi-square as  

AB = 4.84

Ab = 3.24

aB = 3.61

ab = 4.41

Thus, the chi-square value will be the addition of the individual values that comes out to be 16.1. Here there are three degrees of freedom (Number of classes-1). Observing at the P table, this puts the value of P < 0.005.  

A large chi-square value suggests that independent assortment actually did not occur as the expected and the observed values were very distinct.

ryzh [129]

Answer:

DNA is tightly packed up to fit in the nucleus of every cell. As shown in the animation, a DNA molecule wraps around histone proteins to form tight loops called nucleosomes. These nucleosomes coil and stack together to form fibers called chromatin. Chromatin, in turn, loops and folds with the help of additional proteins to form chromosomes. Condensing DNA into chromosomes prevents DNA tangling and damage during cell division.

Water can act as either a(n) _____ or a _____. acid, base solute, solvent anion, cation salt, mixture
IgorC [24]
Water can act as either a base or an acid. Water acts as an acid by donating a hydrogen ion when it reacts with a stronger base such as sodium hydroxide. Water may also act as a base when it accepts hydrogen ion when reacting with a strong acid such as hydrochloric acid. This is based on Bronsted concept and definition of a base ( proton acceptor) and acid (proton donor). Such a  compound that can act as a base and as an acid is called an amphiprotic molecule.

The revolution of earth around the sun and the tilt of earth’s  axis cause the changing of seasons. TRUE

<u>Explanation:</u>

Earth is slightly tilted at its axis. This causes a change in the amount of sunlight reaching each hemisphere. Due to the tilt one hemisphere will be closer to the sun while the other will be at a greater distance.  When the earth revolves around the sun , the hemisphere that is closer to the sun changes.

The hemisphere closer to the sun will experience summer and the hemisphere away from the sun will experience winter.
