30. Given the research question "Can infant birth weight be predicted by maternal weight and height?" During a 2 years period an investigator assembles data on consecutive newborns in a large hospital. The study is limited to term newborns defined by delivery 38-42 weeks after the mother's last menstrual period. In the hospital ward, the investigator measures each infant's birth weight and the mother's weight and height. Based on the data obtained, the investigator concludes that birth weight and height is strongly dependent on the mother's weight. Do you agree or disagree with investigator's conclusion? Explain why or why not.
