	[QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with a spotted tail to offspring with an unspotted tail? Choose the most likely ratio.	[OPTIONS](A) 0:4 (B) 3:1 (C) 4:0 (D) 2:2 (E) 1:3	2:2	To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with a spotted tail or an unspotted tail, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the tail spots trait. The question tells you that the I allele, which is for a spotted tail, is dominant over the i allele, which is for an unspotted tail. A spotted tail is the dominant allele's version of the tail spots trait. A guppy with the dominant version of the tail spots trait must have at least one dominant allele for the tail spots gene. So, offspring with a spotted tail must have the genotype II or Ii. There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype II or Ii. These boxes are highlighted below. An unspotted tail is the recessive allele's version of the tail spots trait. A guppy with the recessive version of the tail spots trait must have only recessive alleles for the tail spots gene. So, offspring with an unspotted tail must have the genotype ii. There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype ii. These boxes are highlighted below. So, the expected ratio of offspring with a spotted tail to offspring with an unspotted tail is 2:2. This means that, on average, this cross will produce 2 offspring with a spotted tail for every 2 offspring with an unspotted tail.	false

	[QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with dark yellow flowers to offspring with light yellow flowers? Choose the most likely ratio.	[OPTIONS](A) 1:3 (B) 2:2 (C) 3:1 (D) 0:4 (E) 4:0	0:4	To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with dark yellow flowers or light yellow flowers, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the flower color trait. The question tells you that the F allele, which is for light yellow flowers, is dominant over the f allele, which is for dark yellow flowers. Dark yellow flowers is the recessive allele's version of the flower color trait. A rose plant with the recessive version of the flower color trait must have only recessive alleles for the flower color gene. So, offspring with dark yellow flowers must have the genotype ff. There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype ff. Light yellow flowers is the dominant allele's version of the flower color trait. A rose plant with the dominant version of the flower color trait must have at least one dominant allele for the flower color gene. So, offspring with light yellow flowers must have the genotype FF or Ff. All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype FF or Ff. So, the expected ratio of offspring with dark yellow flowers to offspring with light yellow flowers is 0:4. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will never produce offspring with dark yellow flowers. Instead, this cross is expected to always produce offspring with light yellow flowers.	false

Dataset Card for "ScienceQA"

Dataset Summary

ScienceQA is collected from elementary and high school science curricula, and contains 21,208 multimodal multiple-choice science questions. Out of the questions in ScienceQA, 10,332 (48.7%) have an image context, 10,220 (48.2%) have a text context, and 6,532 (30.8%) have both. Most questions are annotated with grounded lectures (83.9%) and detailed explanations (90.5%). The lecture and explanation provide general external knowledge and specific reasons, respectively, for arriving at the correct answer. To the best of our knowledge, ScienceQA is the first large-scale multimodal dataset that annotates lectures and explanations for the answers.

ScienceQA, in contrast to previous datasets, has richer domain diversity from three subjects: natural science, language science, and social science. Questions in each subject are categorized first by the topic (Biology, Physics, Chemistry, etc.), then by the category (Plants, Cells, Animals, etc.), and finally by the skill (Classify fruits and vegetables as plant parts, Identify countries of Africa, etc.). ScienceQA features 26 topics, 127 categories, and 379 skills that cover a wide range of domains.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The dataset is prepared to used it for visual question-answering.

Dataset Structure

Data Fields

image: This field has the image, which is the context given to the model.
question: This field incorporates the question that has to answer the model from the image context.
choices: Multiple choice selection.
answer: The answer from the multiple choice.
solution: The chain of thought process of the solution selection.
CTH: A flag that indicates whether it doesnt have chain of thought in that row.

Data Splits

The dataset is split in 80% train and 20% test.

Considerations for Using the Data

The dataset is well balanced in order to get really got result when used in multimodal models.
