Researchers conducted a study of obesity in children. They measured body mass index (BMI), which is a measure of weight relative to height. High BMI is an indication of obesity. Data from a study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association shows a fairly strong positive linear association between mother’s BMI and daughter’s BMI (r = 0.506). This means that obese mothers tend to have obese daughters. 1. Based on this study, what proportion of the variation in the daughter BMI measurements is explained by the mother BMI measurements? 2. What are some of the other variables that explain the variability in the daughter BMI?
Homework Answers
1)
t proportion of the variation in the daughter BMI measurements is explained by the mother BMI measurements
=coefficient of determination=r2 =(0.506)2 =0.2560
2)
other variables associated can be the preference of food ; workout profile ; medical profile etc.

Exposure to arsenic in drinking water is associated with increased prevalence of diabetes. We previously reported an association of diabetes and urinary concentration of dimethylarsinite (DMAS"), a toxic product of arsenic methylation by arsenic (+ 3 oxidation state) methyltransferase (AS3MT). Here we examine associations between AS3MT polymorphism, arsenic metabolism and diabetes. Fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance and self-reported diagnoses were used to identify diabetic individuals. Inorganic...
