A SNP that can exist as a C or G is associated with a human disease.The genotypic odds ratio of the homozygote CC relative to the homozygote GG is 2.2, which indicates that
A)both CC and GG individuals are equally likely to get the disease because 2.2 is not a significant value.
B)heterozygotes are 2.2 times as likely to get the disease as GG homozygotes.
C)CC homozygotes are 2.2 times as likely to get the disease as GG homozygotes.
D)CC homozygotes are 2.2 times less likely to get the disease as GG homozygotes.
