Do head lice carry diseases?
Head lice are currently being considered as vectors (able to carry disease). At the moment though there is nothing to prove that lice can carry or transmit virus or disease to humans, they are simply annoying!
If a man has a Y trait what is the probability his daughter will have the same trait?
By definition, Y-linked diseases cannot pass to a daughter. X-linked diseases can, but many of them are mitigated or eliminated if the X from the mother does not possess the defect, in which case your daughter would be a carrier, and her sons would have a 50/50 chance of inheriting the disease.
Are isotopes called tracer elements?
Yes, isotopes are also tracer elements since most modern disease detection techniques involves the subjects ingesting a small amount of radioactive tracers and detect such things as tumors via x-ray or photographic emulsion techniques. In fact, most tracer elements are isotopes.
Galactosemia is a recessive human disease A woman and her husband are both heterozygous for the glactosemia gene She has identical twins What is the probability that they are both girls and have ga?
the answer is half since it can be a boy or girl so half time half is quarter
What is the probability of testing positive for the disease?
The probability isP(you have the disease)*P(the test shows positive when testing someone with the disease) +P(you don't have the disease)*P(the test shows positive when testing someone without the disease).The second category is particularly important if the disease is rare but the probability of a type II error is large.
What is the probability that a girl will not have huntington disease?
50%
What is the probability that a randomly selected man between age 55 and 64 does not have this disease?
The answer will depend on what the disease is.
What is the probability that you will die of heart disease?
around 20-30%
What are some life-saving discoveries made possible by scientific research?
medicine,weather predicting,and disease prevention?
What is the probability of a baby inheriting a disease from parents?
For the case where the disease is a recessive trait (more likely), the probability is 1/2 that they will carry the diseased gene but not show it. If the disease is a dominant trait, the probability is 1/2 that they will get it and show it. Having said that, in the recessive case, if both parents are carriers, then there is a 1/4 case the child will get it from both and then show the disease. I have answered regarding genetically-transmitted diseases. Mental illness and other forms of "disease" will be different.
How are people with Alzheimer's disease cured?
There is currently no cure for Alzheimer's disease.
What is the probability that N will not have Huntington disease?
0, since letters of the alphabet do not have diseases.
What treatment is available for Wolman's disease?
No treatment is currently available for Wolman's disease.
What is the disease of apple Mac?
There is no disease currently known to the Apple Mac computers
What is the probability that a future daughter they have together will also be afflicted with hemophilia?
0% probability that their daughter will have it because it is a X-linked disease meaning only males can get it.
Why were statistics developed?
To be able to understand the probability of chance for an occurrence and to further understand probability
