Answer: 0.738

Explanation:

11. Mendelian Genetics. When Mendel conducted his famous genetics experiments with peas, one sample of offspring consisted of 428 green peas and 152 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value that was expected?

p0 = 428/(428 + 152) = 0.737931

If you round your answer of 0.737931 to three decimals you will

get 0.738.
