Explain why the prevalence of gonorrhea is higher in woman but the incidence of gonorrhea is higher in males?
One must assume that both genders are equally susceptible to gonorrhea, but that female anatomy makes it harder to recognize symptoms to begin with and more difficult to treat once found. This would mean that more men are charted as having an incidenceof gonorrhea when they go to a clinic for diagnosis and treatment of their painful discharge, but more women are discovered to have gonorrhea as part of a general exam and therefore gonorrhea has a better chance of prevailing in their bodies before treatment can be applied.

What is the prevalence of sexual fetishism in the males and females?
Anybody, male or female, who requires something other than their naked partner to achieve sexual arousal has a fetish. Many people are aroused by the clothing, hairstyle, bodyart, underwear or make-up of their partner rather than the actual experience of hugging their partner. Therefore most of us are guilty of a simple clothing fetish.
What is a survival gene in evolution?
A survival gene is a gene that increases an organism's ability to survive and reproduce in its environment, leading to its higher prevalence in the population over time through natural selection. These genes are advantageous for the organism's survival and reproduction, ultimately contributing to its evolutionary success.
How would Lamarck explain the development of giraffes with long necks?
Lamarck would explain the development of giraffes with long necks as a result of the giraffes stretching their necks to reach higher leaves, and passing on this acquired trait to their offspring. This is known as the theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics.
How many people get Rheumatic Fever?

How common is homosexuality in nature compared to other forms of sexual behavior?
Homosexuality is observed in many species in nature, but it is not as common as heterosexual behavior. The prevalence of homosexuality varies among different species, with some showing higher rates than others. Overall, homosexuality is a natural and relatively common behavior in the animal kingdom.
What is the percentage of muscular dystrophy in males?

Why is it that the male fruit bats have the highest incidence of homosexuality among animals not humans?

How can you use incidence in a sentence?
There is a higher incidence of autism among boys than girls. Since the new vaccine was approved, the incidence of the disease has decreased significantly.
How does the angle of incidence increase the temperature of earth?
The angle of incidence refers to the angle at which sunlight hits the Earth's surface. When sunlight hits the Earth's surface at a higher angle of incidence (more direct sunlight), the energy from the sunlight is more concentrated, leading to increased heating of the surface. This can result in higher temperatures on Earth.

What happens to the angle of incidence from air to glass?
The angle of incidence does not change. I think you want to know the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of transmission. In the case of from air to glas, the transmission angle is smaller than the angle of incidence due to a higher index of refraction of glass than that of air. Look up Snell's Law for better understanding.
What are some advantages and disadvantages of a Progressive tax?
Advantage: Progressive taxes attempt to reduce the tax incidence of people with a lower ability-to-pay, as they shift the incidence increasingly to those with a higher ability-to-pay
Why is multiple sclerosis more prominent in certain places?
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is more prevalent in regions farther from the equator, which may be linked to environmental factors such as vitamin D deficiency due to lower sunlight exposure. Genetic predispositions also play a role, as certain populations may carry higher risks based on their ancestry. Additionally, lifestyle factors, including diet and exposure to infections, may contribute to the varying incidence of MS in different geographic areas. These combined influences help explain the geographic disparities in MS prevalence.
