Consequently if we observe an individual who is unusually tall we can predict that his weight is also above the average. For example height and weight are correlatedas height increases weight also tends to increase. R 072 age height r. In a large prospective observational study of women who delivered singleton neonates at term we found that birth weight correlated positively with measurement of maternal fat free mass and not fat mass in the first trimester of pregnancy.

D all of the above are true. The short group composed of individuals below the 2nd percentile for height and the tall group composed of individuals above the 98th percentile for height in denmark. Which of the following correlation coefficients indicates the strongest relationship between two variables 90.
