To assess Mendel’s law of segregation using tomatoes, a true-breeding tall variety (SS) is crossed with a true-breeding short variety (ss). The heterozygous F1 tall plants (Ss) were crossed to produce two sets of F2 data, as follows. Set I= 63 tall, 16 short Set II= 630 tall, 160 shortPart A What is the chi square value for Set I?

0.949367 ≈ 0.95.

Explanation:

The chi square analysis can be done by the formula as follows:

Chi square = (O-E)²/E

Here, O is observed value and E is expected value.

The tall trait follows the Mendel's law, this means the cross between F1 results in the formation of progeny with ratio 3( tall) : 1 (short).

The observed values for set I is  63 tall, 16 short.

The expected value for tall plant =   = 59.25 .

The expected value for short plant = = 19.75.

Put these value in the formula for chi square analysis:

For tall plants = ( 63 - 59.25)²/ 59.25= 0.237.

For short plants = (16 - 19.75)²/ 19.75 = 0.712

Total value for set I = 0.237 + 0.712 = 0.95.

Thus, the answer is 0.95.

"menstrual cycle is a complex cycle that consists of several processes. order of occurrence of steps in menstrual cycle are as follows:

1. high progesterone levels maintain the endometrium lining of the uterus.

2. endometrium lining breaks down and low levels of estrogen stimulate the pituitary to release fsh and lh.

3. fsh and lh stimulates the follicles to develop and the oocyte to produce estrogen.

4. rising estrogen levels suppress fsh production and development of other follicles.

5. a spike in lh causes follicle to rupture.

6. a breakdown of corpus luteum causes progesterone level to drop."
