As Chief Medical Officer, you investigate suspicious deaths and provide toxicology services for the county. Unfortunately, it's been a busy week. In the past five days, seven people have died, all with similar symptoms. It is your job to examine the data and determine the cause of death for these victims. The first was a 12-year-old girl. Her parents said that she was awake in the middle of the night complaining of a stuffy nose and sore throat. They gave her an extra strength Tylenol and sent her back to bed. At 7am the next morning, the parents discovered that the girl had collapsed on the bathroom floor. An ambulance rushed the girl to a nearby hospital, where she was pronounced dead. That same day, paramedics found the second victim unconscious on his kitchen floor after what they thought was an apparent heart attack. Sadly, the victim's brother and fiancée also collapsed later…arrow_forward

Your aunt or uncle Your child Your first cousin Your grandparent Your parent Your siblingarrow_forwardIn your own words, describe what it means when scientists (including Dr. Roberts) say that race is a social category that has real biological consequences. (Minimum of 3 complete sentences.)arrow_forwardThe following is just information that may help you answer the question. The actual question I need help with is short. It's located in the picture. Gilbert's potoroo (Potorous tridactylus, also known as the long-nosed potoroo) is a small marsupial mammal found in Australia; it is considered to be the world's most endangered marsupial. Like most animals, its genome is ~50% G-C pairs. DNA from E. coli, a species of bacteria, is also ~50% G-C. If you randomly shear E. coli DNA into 1000 bp fragments and put it through density gradient equilibrium centrifugation, you will find that all the DNA bands at the same place in the gradient, and if you graph the distribution of DNA fragments in the gradient you will get a single peak (see below). If you perform the same experiment with potoroo DNA, you will find that a small fraction of the DNA fragments band separately in the gradient (at a different density) and give rise to a small "satellite" peak on a graph of the distribution of DNA…arrow_forward

Use a ruler to align the bands found under the crime-scene DNA with any of the bands found in the suspects’ DNA. Place the ruler at the bottom of the bands. Take notes on whether any of the suspects’ DNA shares the same bands as the crime-scene DNA. Analyze your notes on each suspect’s DNA profile. Do any suspects share all the DNA bands found in the evidence DNA?arrow_forward
