Forensics Investigating arson can be a very complicated and complex job, as you learned in the unit! It is also generally a time sensitive matter. Forensic scientists who investigate arson must not only act quickly, but also methodically.

In order to practice how you would respond during an arson investigation, you will be creating a ‘game plan’ or ‘fire investigation timeline’ for what you would do upon arriving at the scene of a fire. Using what you learned in the unit as well as any necessary online research, you will articulate each step that would take place during your investigation. Be sure to number your steps and keep in mind any unexpected situations that might occur.

For example: "First, I would want to find the fire’s origin and look for signs of accelerant use. If I was able to locate the origin, I would do my best to preserve the area. If not, …"

Your ‘timeline’ should be detailed but it does not need to be as

Mike was adopted, and his biological family history is unknown. although he is healthy, he would like some understanding of his genetic makeup, including potential health risks and genes that he could pass on to his children. mike has heard about commercial laboratories that can compare segments of your dna to those of people with common hereditary diseases in order to give you some idea of how susceptible you are to the diseases. the results of these types of tests are highly inconclusive. if mike's dna showed that he shares similarities in a segment of dna with people who have a given disease, his chances of developing that disease or passing it on to his children may be slightly elevated, but they are not 100 percent. these tests can cost more than $2,500 and are not covered by many insurance companies. do you think that mike should undergo the genetic tests? explain your answer. what are the potential pros and cons of having such tests done? describe how the availability of these genetic tests might affect the frequency of genetic diseases in individuals and populations.

How is the male reproductive system different from other body systems? it isn’t necessary to vital signs. it monitors other body systems, and adjusts if necessary. it transports items from one system to another. it is the only system that produces hormones in the male.
