A mutation in Gene A is thought to be associated with a disease. The mutation in Gene A is found in 5% of the population. 2% of the whole population is diagnosed with disease B at some point in their life time. 1% of the population both has the mutation and also gets diagnosed with the disease in their life time. Is the provided data adequate to test the independency of mutation in Gene A and occurrence of Disease B? If it is not, what other information or data is needed to test the independency? What is the probability of Disease B, among the individuals with the mutation in Gene A? What is the probability of having the mutation in Gene A among the individuals with Disease B?
