Fertilization can take place only during this time period, but the sperm needs at least 9-12 hours inside the woman's body to get ready.That means, your chances getting pregnant are minimal if you make love more than 12 hours after ovulation.ertilization can take place only during this time period, but the sperm needs at least 9-12 hours inside the woman's body to get ready.

When we consider the relationship between two variables, there are three possibilities: 1  Both variables are categorical. 2  Both variables are quantitative. 3  One variable is categorical and the other is quantitative, for instance height and gender.
If there is a correlation, then sometimes we can assume that the dependent variable changes solely because the independent variables change. This is where the debate between correlation and causation occurs. However, there is a difference between cause and effect (causation) and relationship (correlation).raph 1 is called a positive correlation, where the dependent variables and independent variables in a data set increase or decrease together. This means that there is a positive relationship between the number of sweaters sold at Brandy's store and the frequency of illnesses that occur with Brandy's coworkers.
