Which of these values would most likely be the heritability of body mass index (BMI) in a developing country with a large gap between nutrition and health care available to the rich and poor?
a. 0.33
b. -0.88
c. 0.99
d. 0.0001
e. 1.3
Answer:
a. 0.33
Explanation:
Body Mass Index is defined as the measure of fat depending on the height and weight of individuals. It is being calculated as: BMI=
The most likely heritability of body mass index(BMI) in a developing country with a large gap between nutrition and health care will be 0.33.
These is because in developing countries especially countries experiencing rapid economic growth as illustrated by the annual GDP growth rate are likely to have widely ranging lifestyles due to influences of the burgeoning economy, Therefore, there are greater chances for the rich to have access to the basic requirements and necessities of life whereas the poor are limited with either low or no access to adequate nutrition and health care.
