The Punnett square is a simple graphical method that is used to discover all the combinations of a given genotypes that can be passed to children in ...

Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test

The chi-square goodness-of-fit-test is used to test whether the observed proportions for a categorical variable differ from hypothesized proportions. It is based on the principle, that two variables are not related. For example, let's suppose that students of some university have a choice of four elective foreign languages to study. The faculty predicts that Spanish, German, French and Chinese would have equal popularity of 25% each. After running this test, a p value will justify whether to reject the predicted null hypothesis. A chi-square goodness-of-fit test will evaluate whether the observed results differ from these hypothesized proportion.

- Describe a situation where a Goodness-of-Fit Test could be used
We know, that chi-square goodness-of-fit test is a non-parametric test which helps us to understand if there is a significant difference between observed and expected frequencies of some experiment.

Where f0 are observed frequencies, fe are expected frequencies.

For example, consider the coin tossed 100 times with the result of 65 tails and 35 heads. We want to test hypothesis if the coin is symmetric. If the coin is symmetric, then expected frequencies will be 50 and 50.
So,
X 2Pearson = (Oi-Ei) 2/Ei = (65-50) 2/50 + (35-50) 2/50 = 2*225/50 = 9.

What is sunlight?

The sun provides tirelessly every square meter of the earth's surface, which it attacks, with an average of about 1370 watts of power (in the form of electromagnetic radiation). We say that the sun burns, but actually it does not. Instead, the sun is a giant nuclear reactor (Layton & Freudenrich, 2000). This solar energy is called the solar constant, since it does not change, except for minor fluctuations. Solar energy is sent in the form of light waves. Light is an electromagnetic wave. The frequency of light - or how fast the waves vibrate - determines the differences in ...
