The observed and expected results are close, but not quite exact. This could be accounted for due to human error of difficulty identifying the characteristics of each phenotype. However, the results are very close.
The results from my group did not substantially differentiate from the class data. The percentages for each phenotypic group were very close if not exactly the same.
