Two Types of Coevolution

Coevolution is common among organisms participating in a mutual interaction. In mutualism, both the organisms benefit from each other. When coevolution occurs among mutually benefiting species, it is called mutualistic coevolution.

When coevolution is found among species that have negative effects on each other, it is called competitive coevolution. There are two kinds of interactions between species that can lead to competitive coevolution:

Predation is when one organism kills and eats another organism. The prey is the species that gets eaten by the predator, which is of course the species that eats the prey.Parasitism is when one organism benefits by damaging, but not killing, another organism. The parasitespecies benefits from this relationship, while the host species is negatively affected.

You are conducting a case control study to determine if an association exists between melanoma and indoor tanning. From a statew

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a. Odds ratio = 1.58

b. Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning

Explanation:

For case study

Let 'a' represent the total population of people with melanomia = 696

Let 'b' represent the total number of people with melanomia exposed to indoor tanning = 1107 – 696 = 411 people

For control study

Let 'c' represent the total population = 1500

Let 'd' represent the total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning = 1500 - (0.428 * 1500)

= 1500 - 723

Total number of people not exposed to indoor tanning = 777 people

a. Odds ratio = (a/b) / (d/c) = (696/411) / (777/723)

= 1.69 / 1.07 = 1.58

b. Inasmuch the odds ratio is greater than 1, this means that higher odds of melanoma exist in people exposed to indoor tanning, than in those not exposed to indoor tanning.
