Fifty seeds were selected at random from each of 5 bags of seeds,and were kept under standardised conditions favourable to germi
nation.after 20 days,the number of seeds which germinated in each collection were counted and recorded as follows: bags:1,2,3,4,5
no of seeds germinated:40,48,42,39,41
what is the probability of germination of:
1)more than 40 seeds in a bag?
2)49 seeds in a bag?
3)more than 35 seeds in a bag?
There are in total 5 bags. Number of bags in which more than 40 seeds germinated is 3 (bag 2, bag 3, and bag 5). So the probability of germination of <span>more than 40 seeds in a bag is: P = 3/5 = 6/10 = 0.6
Q2. The answer is 0.
</span>There are in total 5 bags. Number of bags in which 49 seeds germinated is 0. So the probability of germination of 49 seeds in a bag is: P = 0/5 = 0
Q3. The answer is 1.
There are in total 5 bags. Number of bags in which more than 35 seeds germinated is 5 (all of them). So the probability of germination of more than 35 seeds in a bag is: P = 5/5 = 1
The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat
