On Friday July 15‚ my group of medical student visited the simulation laboratory. After climbing a couple sets of stairs we were broken off into three different groups for three different sets of activities. The first for me a combination of a couple of simulations. The first one was a simulation designed to help surgeons further develop their skills. We used small clamps to pick up and move rings to different poles. This seems quite simple but we had to do it looking at a monitor that projected

1 Pre-Laboratory Questions 1) What are common patterns of distribution related to rock pocket mice coat color? The patterns of distribution related to rock pocket mice coat color is primarily focused on the genetic variation regarding the fur color of the mice. The population of mice that possess a lighter fur color typically live in regions that contain light coloured rocks within the environment. Still‚ mice that have a darkened color fur will most often be found in areas in which the environment

Laboratory Measurements and Density Objectives: A. To determine the density of Aluminum (lit. value = 2.7 g/cm3) by determining its mass‚ and measuring its volume by dimensional analysis and water displacement. We will also examine the % error in our determination based on the literature value. B. To determine the mass and diameter of select ball bearing. Plot graphs of mass vs. diameter‚ mass vs. surface area‚ and mass vs. volume. Afterwards use slop of the mass vs. volume graph to determine density

Laboratory Experiment No. 1: Common Laboratory Procedures Objective In this experiment‚ the objectives were to use a balance and measure the volume of the liquids. Theory In the experiment‚ three calculations were used. These are the density‚ relative error and the standard deviation. Density is refers to the mass (m) per unit volume (V) of a material and is often represented by the symbols d or ρ‚ where d = m/V. The density of an object changes with pressure and temperature. Second‚

Reflexes Laboratory Activity (12 points) 1. Amy has numbness of her pinky‚ ring finger‚ and medial surface of her right arm. After neurological testing‚ it is determined that she has a compressed spinal nerve on the right side. a. Which spinal nerve (what level) is affected? The level is C5-T1 cervical nerves. The specific spinal nerve would belong to the brachial plexus‚ the ulnar nerve. b. How did you determine/decide it was this level? The ulnar nerve branches off of the medial cord‚ which is

The Roper v. Simmons murder trial was decided on March 1‚ 2005. Around this time the Atkins v. Virginia trial was decided in favor of Atkins. Atkins filed for mental retardation and that influenced the court decision greatly. The social beliefs of this time period were if you commit murder‚ you should get the death penalty. This also greatly influenced the 1st court decision of Roper v. Simmons. In 1993 a young man named Christopher Simmons planned a murder and burglary of Shirley Cook with a few
