Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) have a higher incidence in females due to anatomical differences in the urethra and the proximity of the anus to the female urethra, making it easier for bacteria to enter the urinary tract. Therefore, gender can be considered a viable predisposing factor for UTIs. Pneumonia, salmonellosis, tetanus, and anthrax do not have gender as a significant predisposing factor.
