Pea Plant Reproduction Can Be Simulated With Coin Tossing The Equally Likely Outcomes Of Heads And Tails Are Used To Si 2 (22.18 KiB) Viewed 29 times
Pea plant reproduction can be simulated with coin tossing. The equally likely outcomes of heads and tails are used to simulate the transfer of equally likely genes R and r from two Rr pea plants (red-flowered because R is dominant, bu carrying both red and white genes). Two coins, heads representing R and tails m have been tossed 50 times for the simulation. Using the color interpretation hh = red, ht=th = red, and tt = white gives the sequence of flower colors in offspring shown below. red-red-red-white-red-red-red-red-red red-red-red-white-red-red-red-red-red red-red-red-red-red-white-red-white red-red-red-red-red-white-white-red white-white-red-red-red-red-red-white red-red-white-red-red-white-white-white
Use the given sequence of flower colors to approximate the probability that five successive offspring all will have red flowers. The probability is (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
