Question

Q1) The null hypothesis in a chi square analysis states that the predicted values significantly differ from the observed values. (True or false)

Q2) In laboratory 4, the chi square test will be used to assess the genetic linkage between the gray and tan loci in Sordaria fimicola. (True or false)

Answer 1

The null hypothesis in a chi square analysis states that the predicted values significantly differ from the observed values. (True or false)

False, a null hypothesis in a chi square analysis will states that the predicted and observed values wont differ from each other. In other words, both values must be equal or close enough . The alternative hypothesis establish that both values will differ significantly

Note: I can not answer the next question because I need the full information about the Laboratory 4.
