2. (14 points] Pea plants contain two genes for seed color, each of which may be Y (for yellow seeds) or G(for green seeds). Plants that contain one of each type of gene are called heterozygous. According to the Mendelian theory of genetics, if two heterozygous plants are crossed, each of their offspring will have probability 0.75 of having yellow seeds and probability 0.25 of having green seeds. a. What is the approximate probability that more than 30 have green seeds out of 100 offspring of heterozygous plants? b. What is the approximate probability that between 30 and 35 (inclusive) have green seeds out of 100 offspring of heterozygous plants?
