df=n1
n = number of phenotypes
In this case, the degree of

df = n 1

If the calculated chi-square value is less than the 0.05 value, we accept the hypothesis.
If the chi-square value is greater than the value in the table, we reject the hypothesis.
Threrefore, because the calculated chi-square value is smaller, then we accept the
hypothesis that the data fits a 9:3:3:1 ratio.
In this table, 1.85 is the closest number. Then go to the top of the column and locate your
probability value. In this case the probability value that lines up with 1.85 is 0.60. This
number means that the probability that your hypothesis is correct is 0.60 or 60 percent.
The probability that your hypothesis is incorrect is 0.40 or 40 percent.
