One variety of corn is genetically modified to produce chemicals for defense against predators. The standard corn contains the same standard genotype, but without genetic modification for the chemicals. The two types of corn are then planted in randomly placed adjacent plots across a single field. The amount of predators that are present when the corn has matured are then recorded. The data that was recorded of the predators present among each type are listed.
Has genetic alterations decreased the amount of predators for the altered genotype? Normality tests for the populations of both contain a p value less than 0.05. The given alpha is 0.05
Modified Corn (20, 18, 26, 23, 17, 23, 22)
Standard Corn (89, 64, 102, 96, 56, 77, 84, 59)

The coat color of black bears depends on a gene with two alleles. Allele B is dominant and confers black coat, whereas allele b is recessive and homozygous bears have white coats (albino black bears, I know it sounds weird but it is true). As we know from genetics each bear has two alleles and the coat colors are as follows:
BB-black; Bb-black; bb-white.
A researcher obtained the following data for the genotypes (BB, Bb or bb) of black bears:
Genotype
Number of bears
BB
42
Bb
24
bb
21
You are performing the following hypothesis test:
H0: The genotypes of the bears follow a binomial distribution, with a probability of receiving the b allele equal to the observed proportion of the b allele in the population.
HA: The genotypes of the bears do not follow a binomial distribution
What is the expected frequency of bears with genotype BB, Bb, and bb? Give the absolute expected frequency (number of bears) not the fraction/proportion of BB bears
A mutation in Gene A is thought to be associated with a disease. The mutation in Gene A is found in 5% of the population. 2% of the whole population is diagnosed with disease B at some point in their life time. 1% of the population both has the mutation and also gets diagnosed with the disease in their life time.a. Is the provided data adequate to test the independency of mutation in Gene A and occurrence of Disease B? If it is not, what other information or data is needed to test the independency?b. What is the probability of Disease B, among the individuals with the mutation in Gene A?c. What is the probability of having the mutation in Gene A among the individuals with Disease B?d. If an individual has the mutated Gene A, what is their Relative Risk of developing the disease?

- you are provided with counts ofF1 and F2 offspring with given genders and disease phenotypes.The data are generated from an initial parental cross.One parent displays the disease phenotype and one displays the wild-type (WT) phenotype.The WT parent always has a homozygous genotype. There are three possible modes of inheritance that underliethe generation of the data. All are monogenic. They are: (i) Autosomal Recessive.(ii) Homozygous Lethal Dominant.(iii) Autosomal Dominant. One's phenotype is determined by their genotype at the disease locusand the mode of inheritance, as we have seen with the Punnett Square. In this assignment you are provided with a computer generated mode of inheritance.Your task is to perform a chi-square goodness of fit teston the F2 data and make a decision, based on your statistical analysis, as to whetheryou reject or do not reject the computer generated mode of inheritance as being consistentwith the observed data.
