whether this trait is inherited according to Mendel s laws which phenotype is dominant and which one is recessive 2 Write a statement if then predicting your results based on your hypothesis hint in your statement predict what the phenotypic ratio will be based on your hypothesis 3 In table 2 below record the number of corn kernels that are smooth and rough Table 2 Number of kernels Texture smooth rough Total Number of Kernels 215 35 150 4 Compare your observed and expected results by doing the chi square test Table 3 Notes on calculating the chi square number Obtain your observed values counted number of smooth kernels counted number of rough kernels from Table 2 above Calculate your expected e values based on your predicted phenotypic ratio and using the total number of kernels calculated in Table 2 For example if your predicted ratio is 1 1 smooth rough and the total number of kernels obtained is 600 your e value for smooth kernels would be 300 1 2 x 600 and your e value for rough kernels would also be 300 The symbol means the sum of Therefore you need to add all the d e values to get your chi square X2 number
