Question

Suppose we have the following table in our goodness of fit test results:

Variable/Condition	Value
p-value	0.077
Significance level	0.05
Conclusion

what do we write in the cell corresponding to "Conclusion?"

a) We collect more data.

b) We reject the null hypothesis that the disease possibly follows the specified mode of inheritance at the given gene.

c) We accept the null hypothesis that the disease possibly follows the specified mode of inheritance at the given gene.

d) We change the significance level to 0.95.

e) We accept the null hypothesis that the disease almost certainly follows the specified mode of inheritance at the given gene.

Definition Definition Measure of central tendency that is the value that occurs most frequently in a data set. A data set may have more than one mode if multiple categories repeat an equal number of times. For example, in a data set with five item—3, 5, 5, 29, 473—the mode is 5 because it occurs twice and no other value occurs more than once. On a histogram or bar chart, the element with the highest bar represents the mode. Therefore, the mode is sometimes considered the most popular option. The mode is useful for nominal or categorical data (e.g., the most common color car that users purchase), but it is problematic for continuous data because it is more likely not to have any value that is more frequent than the other.
