Using the table of critical values shown, what is the P-value range we would obtain for our test?

When two heterozygotes are mated, the ratios of the offspring produced should be in a 1:2:1 ratio if normal Mendelian segregation is occurring. If one of the alleles is dominant, then the phenotypes observed should be present in a 3:1 ratio with the dominant phenotype more common than the recessive one. We can use an χ2 goodness-of-fit test to test whether the ratio of offspring is indeed 3:1. Imagine a cross is performed and the number of offspring observed is 67 with the dominant phenotype and 33 with the recessive phenotype. Using the table of critical values shown, what is the P-value range we would obtain for our test?
