Answer to Question 1

The ability of an antibiotic to inhibit the growth of an organism isolated from a patient

Answer to Question 2

Haplotype is a set of HLA genes on one chromosome that is transmitted as a unit; each person has two haplotypes, each consisting of four HLA genes for a total of eight HLA proteins. This happens because chromosomes come in pairs. Unless two individuals are identical twins, there is a very remote chance for both to have the same HLA proteins. Each person receives one of two possible haplotypes from each parent. As such, each child has only one haplotype that is common with each parent and will have only one out of four possible combinations of haplotypes.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
