Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Phasic receptors are sensory receptors that are fast acting in detecting changes in the strength of a particular stimulus or signal to the brain. They are  fast adapting receptor cells that detect changes in the strength of a stimulus. Because of this fast adapting ability, they cannot be used by the CNS in constant signalling of stimulus. A different receptor called Tonic receptors are used by the brain for constant signalling because they are slow reacting cells are they continue to transmit signals to the CNS along as the stimulus remains and not to changes in the pressure or strength of the stimulus. Phasic receptors are so important in predicting the changes in the body fora given time and this helps to quantify how body can react to increase or release of a stimulus. because when  stimulus is added it signals the brain for some time and it signals stops but when the stimulus is released, it also signals the brain detecting bodily deformations to various stimulus.

A large number of disease-free individuals were enrolled in a study
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

a,Answer: Type I right censoring, censoring time = 60.

b.This is called an Interval censoring,

c.this is called Random censoring because the year in consideration was chosen at random, censoring time = 61.

d.The observations are left truncated respectively at age 30, 40, 50 and 42.

e.L\alpha \frac{S(60)}{S(30)} *\frac{S(52)-S(55)}{S(40)} *\frac{S(61)}{S(42)} *\frac{S(55)}{S(50)}

Explanation:

a) A healthy individual, enrolled in the study at age 30, never developed

breast cancer during the study.

Answer: Type I censoring, censoring time = 60.

(b) A healthy individual, enrolled in the study at age 40, was diagnosed

with breast cancer at the fifth exam after enrollment (i.e., the disease

started sometime between 12 and 15 years after enrollment).

THis is called an Interval censoring,

if the clinical exams is conducted every three years , then 3*4=12, and 3*5=15

add this to 40 years respectively, we have

censoring time = (52, 55]

c) A healthy individual, enrolled in the study at age 50, died from a

cause unrelated to the disease (i.e., not diagnosed with breast cancer

at any time during the study) at age 61.

this is called Random censoring because the year in consideration was chosen at random, censoring time = 61.

(d) An individual, enrolled in the study at age 42, moved away from

the community at age 55 and was never diagnosed with breast cancer

during the period of observation.

Random censoring, censoring time = 55.

The observations are left truncated respectively at age 30, 40, 50 and 42.

e.  Confining your attention to the four individuals described above,

write down the likelihood for this portion of the study.

L\alpha \frac{S(60)}{S(30)} *\frac{S(52)-S(55)}{S(40)} *\frac{S(61)}{S(42)} *\frac{S(55)}{S(50)}  

the above represent the likelihood

Do all mutations result in negative effects? Why or why not?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

No, mutations do not all result in negative effects. Sometimes they can be beneficial, as they are completely random. It is our general tendency to think of the word "mutation" in negative terms; however, do not get confused. Mutations are the root/ultimate source of genetic variation; they are one of the main factors that allow populations to evolve.
