Forensic Biology What is Forensic Biology? Forensic biology is a discipline that focuses on the performance of serological and DNA examinations for purposes of individualization and identification. Materials analyzed is not only limited to blood but also includes: saliva collected at crime scenes or from articles of physical evidence and semen (Gefrides & Welch, 2011). These bodily fluids are typically generated in the process of violent crimes commission such as a hit and run fatalities homicides, assaults, and rape. The aim is usually to identify the type of material present and then, later on, to determine the link of the material(s) to a particular person through DNA. The forensic biology intends to provide the criminal justice system with a timely scientific analysis of biological data. Importance of Serology to Forensic Biology In forensic biology, serology particularly refers to the screening of evidence for body fluids. The identification of body fluids such as saliva, urine, semen, and blood, is generally performed on evidentiary items before DNA examination. Forensic serology plays the role of connecting victims and suspects to each other and…
Statistics Problems Question 6 The hypothesis tests whether the cost of the brunch is independent of the restaurant’s quality. The initial step is to formulate the null and alternative hypothesis. Null hypothesis: Cost and quality are independent Alternative hypothesis: Cost and quality are dependent Chi-square statistic (X2) tests for the independence between variables X2= ∑[(Oi -Ei)2/ Ei] Oi and Ei are observed and expected frequency counts of the variables S $.01-15.00 $15.01-30 $30.01+ Column Total T 4 25 22 38 85 A 3 17 28 35 80 R 2 40 30 25 95 S 1 43 45 22 110 Row Total 125 125 120 370 E1,1= 85*125/370= 28.71 E1,2= 85*125/370= 28.71 E1,3=85*120/370= 27.57 E2,1= 80*125/370= 27.03 E2,2= 80*125/370= 27.03 E2,3= 80*120/370= 25.95 E3,1= 95*125/370= 32.09 E3,2= 95*125/370= 32.09 E3,3 = 95*120/370= 30.81 E4,1= 110*125/370= 37.16 E4,2= 110*125/370= 37.16 E4,3= 110*120/370= 35.68 Oi Ei (Oi- Ei)2/ Ei 25 28.7 0.477 22 28.7 1.564 38 27.6 3.919 17 27.0 3.704 28 27.0 0.037 35 26.0 3.116 40 32.1 1.944 30 32.1 0.137 25 30.8 1.092 43 37.2 0.904 45 37.2 1.635 22…
role of HPV in cervical cancer cells Abstract Cancer primarily manifests itself through abnormal cell growth that slowly spreads to other parts of the body, where it has different stages depending on the extent through which it has spread. While is it described as killer diseases, especially at the later stages, it can be mitigated through a series of medications. Additionally, there are also preventive measures taken to curb it depending on the nature of cancer. These measures range from lifestyle adjustments to vaccinations. It is important to note that different types of cancers affect specific body parts, and understanding them is essential in drawing up preventive measures, diagnosis procedures, and treatment. This essay draws attention to the role of HPV in cervical cancer cells. It also highlights the causes of cervical cancer, its diagnosis, and treatment. Keywords: HPV, cervical, cell, infection, sexual Introduction Human papillomavirus infection (HPV) is a viral infection primarily passed through skin contact, especially from sexual contact[1].

Space creative impulse Space creative impulse depicts a sensible approach in appreciating and understanding space. In most cases, these modern buildings give individuals a sense of pleasure and familiarity. In this case, most architectural practices are appealing to an individual’s feelings in the mind that there is existence between performance and practice while in a building, room, or space. Therefore, this paper talks about design theories, and the primary ideas involved the themes involved. The themes involved in this case include language, subject, image, process, and experience. In this regard, the main idea stimulating from the various quotes established in the research question is performance and practice — for instance, performances shape perception of a distinct space either physically or socially. Concerning performance and practice, a broad precedent suffices in most conversations. Through performance, space images are felt by an individual. An inner feeling is an experience categorizing space as a materialization of not only theory but also practice. However, others will argue that areas offer theoretical concepts of art in the sense that the theoretical praxis is indicative of…
SWOT Analysis for Stevens District Hospital Stevens District Hospital currently released its strategic plan. The facility is a 162-bed acute care hospital with a mission of providing high-quality care, comprehensive services, and exceptional services. The hospital looks to expand its scope to six family practice physicians, specialists in cardiology, oncology, and women’s services in 5 years. Currently, the hospital has three family physicians, one obstetrician, one medical oncologist, and one non-invasive cardiologist. The financial goal of Steven’s District Hospital The strengths of the facility lie within its dominating market coverage within the last five years. The market trend, as projected five years ago, reflect trust and preference by the community. Besides, the facility also enjoys relatively fair HCAHPS scores, which they would improve by relative adjustment. The hospital should realize comprehensive care if it can achieve a score of 95% in all aspects of the HCAHPS scores. The facility needs to work aggressively on patient satisfaction (Kapoor et al. 2016). The baseline financial weakness of the facility is influenced by the drop in market volume in contrast to its competitors…
my time pursuing the Master of Science in Project Management Project management, as has exposed me to new experiences which have enabled me to gain new insight into the various ways of how I can apply the broad knowledge into any project that deals with management. The program has proved to be a new experience for me, in a different point of views from the professional view to the personal learning point of view.

Besides, there are some professional experiences which I also gained from the program; I found some classes to be so much relevant to my professional life, and they have as well enabled me to learn certain critical skills which would later become handy in my prospective career. Moreover, there are…
Critical Analysis -Analyzing ‘Bad’ Science Introduction In the article “Where There Are Girls, There Are Cats” written by Li and colleagues, the focus is directed towards understanding the way free-ranging cats manage to live with humans. The study targeted 30 Universities in China, and it has claimed that there is a linear proportion between free-ranging cats and female students within the targeted Universities. The study showed that female students were increasingly concerned about the well-being of free-ranging cats and that the population density of free-ranging cats is dependent on the number of female students within these Universities. The researchers concluded that human gender plays a significant role in understanding how well the population of free-ranging cats can be controlled, based on the concern towards free-ranging cats between males and females. Therefore, in line with these claims, this paper will conduct a critical analysis of this research to understand the correlation and causation and some of the mistakes evident from this research. Background This article has so far been removed and is no longer published. Peer review plays a significant role…

Weekly Clinical Reflective Journal Cohort Research Cohort researches are medical researchers conducted on groups of people to determine the cause of an illnesses and the relationship between health results and risk factors. Cohort researches are the best scientific methods that have measure the effects of a potential risk factor. Cohort researches can either be prospective which are planned before and are carried out for a future time or retrospective which uses the existing data to determine the risk factors for a given condition. This paper will discuss all what entails in a cohort research and the relevant examples. Prospective cohort study tends to the possible causes of a disease.
