Answer:

Energy pyramids is representation of food chain where producers lie at the base of pyramid followed by primary, secondary and tertiary consumer. A tertiary consumer lies at the top of the energy pyramid .

Explanation:

An ecological pyramid is a chronological arrangement of organism in which the organism producing the food lies at the base of pyramid and remaining all organism lie above it.

Each level of an ecological pyramid is called a trophic level and an organism lying at any trophic level feed upon organism lying in trophic level prior to it.

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.
