The animal Mischievous gremlinus comes in three coat-color varieties: black, red, and striped (which consists of a mixture of black and red patches). The famous scientist Johnny Nerdelbaum Frink decided to investigate the hereditary basis of the Mischievous color variation He carried out the following three crosses: Cross Offspring Striped x Striped 16 striped, 5 black, 3 redStriped x Black 6 striped, 7 black Striped x Red 18 red, 9 striped, 6 black a. After analyzing these results, Professor Frink proposed a hypothesis to explain the inheritance of color in this animal. He assumes the presence of two loci which are under some type of epistasis. Explain this hypothesis. b. For the first two crosses, he tested this hypothesis by using a chi-square test. What would his tests look like?
