Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2500 grams and a standard deviation of 700 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3000 grams and a standard deviation of 480 grams. If a 33-week gestation period baby weighs 2650 grams and a 41-week gestation period baby weighs 3150 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to the gestation period?
Z-score corresponds to a 33 to 35 week gestation period baby weighs 2650 grams is,
Z = (2650 - 2500)/700 = 0.2143
Z-score = 0.21
and Z-score corresponds to a 41-week gestation period baby weighs 3150 grams is,
Z = (3150 - 3000)/480 = 0.3125
Z-score = 0.31
Here, z = 0.31 > z = 0.21
Therefore, the baby born in week 41 weighs more relative to the gestation period, since its zscore is larger.

Moderate prematurity refers to babies who are born between 28 and 32 completed weeks gestational age with a birth weight range between 1500 and 2500 grams. The length of time a baby has spent in the womb, or more specifically the number of completed weeks of frequency, is called gestational age. Based on their gestational age and their weight, premature babies are placed into categories of mild, moderate and extreme prematurity. Mild Prematurity Moderate Prematurity Extreme Prematurity refers to babies...
