(a) If the selected rat is found to be infected, what is the probability that it is a female? (b) If the selected rat is found to be a male, what is the probability that it is infected? (c) Are the events \"the selected rat is infected" and \"the selected rat is male\" independent? Why or why not? (d) Are the events \"the selected rat is infected" and "the selected rat is male\" disjoint? Why or why not
