Question
The presence of the sea lice, a common parasite among saltwater fish is said to be related to pollution in the bodies
of water. A total of 50 random sample of fish from a certain bay was obtained. Each fish was analyzed whether an
internal parasite (Y=1) was observed or not. Likewise, the amount of estrogenic compounds in the fish blood (X₁,
ppt) and the sex of the fish (X₂, Male=1 and Female=0), using Female as base category, were recorded. Regression
analysis was done, and the model is given by:
= -1.3 +0.34X₁ + 1.51X₂
1.
2.
3.
In
(y=1)
1-z(y=1)
Based on the model, what is the odds of observing an internal parasite over not observing for male relative
to a female fish, holding amount of estrogenic compounds constant.
A Lower by 1.51
B.
Higher by 1.51
C. Lower by e^1.51
D. Higher by e^1.51
Based on the model (holding sex of the fish constant), every ppt increase in the amount of estrogenic
compound
A. Increases
B. decreases
the odds of observing an internal parasite multiplicatively by
A 0.34
B. e^0.34
What is the probability of observing an internal parasite from a female fish with a 0.58 ppt of estrogenic
compound? A 0.25
B. 0.33
C. 0.34
D. 0.58
