Consider each of the research questions below and write a declarative statement null and alternative hypothesis for each a. Research scientists are interested in whether the pod shape gene (round vs. indented) and the flower color gene (purple vs. white) are inherited in a Mendelian fashion. The scientist crosses a pea plants that are heterzygous for both traits (i. e. heterzygous at both loci). To access if these genes are inherited in a Mendelain fashion, the researcher want to determine if the observed phenotypic ratio diplay by the offspring they breed is similar, to the expected 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio that is expected to result for a dihybrid cross where both genes are inherited in a Mendelian fashion.
b. You buy five small packages of multicolored chocolates and five small packages of peanut butter candies (which are the same net weight as the multicolored chocolates). You want to test if the mean number of candy pieces per package is the same between the two brands
