The prosecution on this case would like to bring forward an expert in the field of ballistics to prove the bullet found at the crime scene was that of the defendant. This ballistics expert has a PhD in forensic science and has worked at the Ballistics Dept. at the Forensic Center in Houston, TX for 25 years. His methods are widely accepted in the scientific community. The judge finds his testimony to be relevant and allows his testimony to be heard. Which correctly describes the admissibility of this expert's testimony?
A) Frye standard
B) Daubert ruling
C) Miranda rights
D) Ballistics rule

What is the correct order for processing a crime scene?
A) first officer reports to scene, securing the crime scene, crime scene survey, collection of physical evidence
B) crime scene survey, first officer reports to scene, securing the crime scene, collection of physical evidence
C) first officer reports to scene, collection of physical evidence, securing the crime scene, crime scene survey
D) first officer reports to scene, crime scene survey, securing the crime scene, collection of physical evidence,

Answers

Answer 1

1. B) Daubert ruling  

Daubert standard or Daubert ruling is used in the court to determine whether a scientist testimony could be admissible. The judge will be the gatekeeper and has to determine the admissibility of the testimony based on several checklist. It might sound similar to Frye standard which only testing the general acceptability of the testimony of the scientist in the particular field.

2. A) first officer reports to scene, securing the crime scene, crime scene survey, collection of physical evidence

Processing crime scene should be done in an orderly fashion to make the evidence collected reliable. Securing crime scene is important to make sure there no one change or destroy the evidence there. After that, doing a survey so you could do your work more efficient and doing less damage to the scene. Collecting the evidence would be done last.

A. The snake population will decrease rapidly and the grass population will increase rapidly.
B. The hawk population will increase rapidly and the rabbit population will decrease rapidly.
C. The grass population will decrease rapidly and the snake population will increase rapidly.
D. The grass, rabbit, snake, and hawk populations will all decrease rapidly.

Answers

A.The snake population will decrease rapidly and the grass population will increase rapidly

The correct answer is A. The snake population will decrease rapidly and the grass population will increase rapidly.

Explanation:

In an ecosystem, different organisms depend on each other for food and nutrients, in the case presented it is expected the rabbits rely on the grass to feed, the snakes hunt the rabbits and finally, the hawks hunt the snakes creating a food chain. This also implies if the population of one organism is affected all the other organisms will also be affected.

According to this, in the case of the population of rabbits decreasing it is expected the grass population increases because there are not enough rabbits to feed on grass and in the same way as there are not enough rabbits for snakes to feed which will decrease the snake population. Thus, the effect, in this case, is a decrease in the snake population and an increase in grass population (Option A).

As part of an experiment, a student adds 10 mL of 5% hydrochloric acid solution to 100 mL of a non-buffered, colorless solution of sugar. What is the most likely result?
a)
The concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) will increase.
c)
The pH will not change.
b)
The pH will increase.
d)
The concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) will increase.

Answers

Hello


The answer is option A

The most likely result is that the concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺) will increase. Option A is correct.

Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, which means that it dissociates completely in water to form hydrogen ions and chloride ions. When the student adds 10 mL of 5% hydrochloric acid solution to 100 mL of a non-buffered, colorless solution of sugar, the hydrogen ions from the acid will be added to the solution.

This will increase the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution, which will lower the pH.The pH scale is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. A pH of 7 is neutral, a pH below 7 is acidic, and a pH above 7 is alkaline. The lower the pH, the more acidic the solution. Option A is correct.

Plant A is exposed to classical music using headphones attached to the soil. Throughout the growth period, Jordan counts the number of tomatoes produced by each plant.

List one of the experimental constants in this experiment.

Answers

an expiremental constant is the amount of water and sunlight, the variable is the music

Answer:

Water and sunlight are the experimental constants.

Explanation:

As we know, scientific experiments are composed of variables (dependent and independent) that are factors that researchers can manipulate to provoke a reaction that allows them to observe results. What few know is that in addition to variables, experiments are composed of factors called "constants". Experimental constants are factors that are maintained in the same way throughout the experiment without being manipulated. An example of this can be seen in the question above, where the researcher used as constant the amount of water supplied to plants and the amount of sunlight.

Jenna's pencil fell off of her desk and she quickly reached down to catch it before it hit the ground. In this process, the system first recognized the falling pencil. It sent signals to the system, which then moved the components of the system in order to catch the pencil.

Answers

1. nervous

2. muscular

3. skeletal

Final answer:

Jenna's ability to catch her falling pencil quickly is made possible by her nervous system's fast reaction time.

Explanation:Nervous System and Reaction Time

In the scenario described, Jenna's ability to quickly catch her falling pencil is due to her nervous system's fast reaction time. The nervous system is responsible for recognizing the stimulus (falling pencil) and sending signals to activate the necessary components (muscles) to catch it.

The nervous system works through the specialized cells called neurons, which transmit electrical signals. When the pencil falls, the sensory neurons in Jenna's hand and arm detect the movement and send signals to the brain. The brain then processes this information and sends signals through motor neurons to the muscles in Jenna's hand and arm, allowing her to reach down and catch the pencil in time.

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The atoms that started out in hydrogen peroxide molecules are rearranged to form water molecules.

Final answer:

In chemical reactions, atoms are rearranged, not created or destroyed. This conforms to the Law of Conservation of Mass. An example is the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen to form water.

Explanation:

In chemical reactions, atoms are rearranged. They are not created or destroyed. This concept is based on the Law of Conservation of Mass which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, during a chemical reaction, the atoms of the initial reactants reorganize themselves to form the end products, but no atom is created or lost.

For example, if we have a chemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen forming water (2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O), the atoms are rearranged such that the 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms from the reactants end up as 2 water molecules in the product.

For G1 describe at least one way mistakes during the cell cycle could result in problems

Answers

Ans.

G1 (or gap 1) is first stage of cell cycle of cell division in eukaryotes. During G1 phase, cell starts to synthesize mRNA (messenger RNA) and protein molecules, which are necessary for DNA replication in next stage and other processes. At the end of G1 stage, cell moves into S-phase of cell cycle, where DNA replication takes place.

Before entering the S-phase, cell's nutritional content and DNA integrity is checked. If cells in G1 show DNA errors or damaged DNA  (such as breaks in DNA strands), it will lead to problems as 'it will result into formation of daughter cells with damaged or mutated DNA, if not gets repaired.'

For G1-phase, one way mistakes during the cell cycle could result in problem is cell doesn’t have a sufficient amount of proteins or other raw materials for the replication of DNA. This condition results in formation of mutated daughter cell.

Further Explanation:

The cell cycle refers to an ordered flow of events which includes cell growth as well as cellular division. This cycle produces two new daughter cells. The cycle starts with interphase in this the cell mature and replicates its own DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid. The interphase begins with:

G1 phase: This is the primary growth phase provide nutrient to the cell. If a cell doesn’t have a sufficient amount of protein or other raw materials for the replication of DNA. It result in formation of daughter cells with damaged or mutated DNA, if not gets repaired. S phase or synthesis of DNA: During this phase, the replication of DNA takes place. The centrosome is divide and forms mitotic spindle during the mitosis phase. Mistake in this phase will leads to the loss of DNA mutations or integrity. G2 or second gap: during this phase, the cell mainly replenishes its energy stores as well as synthesizes the proteins which are required for the chromosome manipulation. In this phase error is resolved even in case of unresolved error the cell undergoes division to pass on the error to the daughter cell.

The second stage of a cell cycle is the mitosis or M phase. Chromosomal abnormalities can occur during metaphase of meiosis. It would lead to enuploidy or polyploidy, due to unequal division of chromosomes. Mitotic phase refers to a multiphase process in this the chromosomes are aligned, segregated, and moved into the two new daughter cells which are identical to each other.
