Non-true-breeding hairy-leaved plants are crossed with smooth-leaved plants.

a. What genotypic and phenotypic ratios would you expect for the potential offspring?
b. Suppose you perform such a cross, collect data, and do a chi-square test to aid in data analysis. How many degrees of freedom would there be?
c. Suppose your chi-square value is very large (>25). What does this indicate about your experiment and/or hypothesis?
