Plant Genetics A peony plant with red petalswas crossed with another plant having streaky petals.The probability that an offspring from this cross hasred flowers is .75. Let x be the number of plants withred petals resulting from ten seeds from this cross thatwere collected and germinated.a. Does the random variable x have a binomial distribution?If not, why not? If so, what are the valuesof n and p?b. Find P(x 9).c. Find P(x 1).d. Would it be unusual to observe one plant with redpetals and the remaining nine plants with streakypetals? If these experimental results actuallyoccurred, what conclusions could you draw?
