Answer:

Gigantism

Explanation:

Gigantism

This is an unusual form of growth and stature as there is hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH), somatotropin prior to puberty. This will cause a further overgrowth of all the body tissues. This condition can be triggered by an anterior pituitary adenoma. It is yet to be ascertained if a genetic link can be the cause.

In Gigantism, there is unusual and increased growth, mainly of the long bones, since epiphyseal closure is not active. This situation causes poor Sexual and mental developments.

Paul [167]

Answer:

frequency of the blue (B) allele = 0.4142

frequency of the red (R) allele = 0.5858

The number of blue plants expected is 509.652

The number of red plants expected is 1019.304

The anticipated number of violet plants is 1441.341

Calculated chi square value

= 84.5320 + 42.5688 + 119.8692\\= 246.97

Explanation:

Frequency of blue allele is

Frequency of blue allele is equal to sum of frequency of BB and half of frequency of BR

\frac{302}{2970} + \frac{1}{2} \frac{1857}{2970} \\= 0.1016 + 0.3126\\= 0.4142

Frequency of other allele

1- 0.4142\\= 0.5858

Chi Square test
