XYZ factory has hired a quality assurance research group to investigate chemical handling by its employees. The workers are conc

erned that the chemicals are making them ill. The research group conducts a poll of the employees to determine how many times each has been hospitalized over the course of a year. Then the research group goes to another plant and asks the same poll questions. The two sets of data are compared. In both factories, few people were hospitalized, so the research group concludes there are no health problems. There are often aspects of research that contain bias, which skews the data. Which statement below could explain skewed data that did NOT result from bias on the part of the research company? A. The factory hired the research group. B. Polls are not always valid. C. Not everyone who is sick must go to the hospital. D. Each factory worker may have handled different materials.

The answer would be C
The illness doesn't have to be life-threatening to the point where they must go to the hospital, but it could still be a health risk.

Answer:

C. Not everyone who is sick must go to the hospital.

Explanation:

We know that going to the hospital implies high expenses and decreases the worker's budget, medical care is not cheap and for this reason, not everyone that this patient goes to the hospital. When the disease is neither serious nor debilitating, people prefer not to seek medical attention, either for lack of economic resources or for any other reason. Therefore, the research team shown in the question above, was wrong to ask workers how many times they were hospitalized, because they may have been sick without going to the hospital. Ideally, the research team should assess the health of each worker.

ANSWER: CANCER DEVELOPMENT

EXPLANATION:

Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are genes that regulates the cell cycle of a cell (i.e the cell division and replication). In other words, TSGs encodes protein that act as control or regulator of cell growth.

However, when there is an alteration in the genetic sequence (mutation) of the TSGs, this make the cell not to respond to cues that had been regulating it growth.

Thus, when cell growth is not regulated, it results to runaway or abnormal cell growth (i.e multiple folds cell division and replication), in other word referred to as “cancer”.
