The texture was smooth and there wasn’t any reaction to indicator 1. However, bubbling occurred for indicator 2 and 3.
 
The Blood has identical clumping of the Anti-A and B serum, which relates to either Anna or Alex Garcia.

Anna’s hair was found at crime scene when the hair cuticles had blotchy area and looks exactly the same to the one found. 

Fingerprint was a tented arch: Alex Garcia. Anna has a whorl arch.

The shoe print belonged to Anna Garcia, because “w” shape of the under print of the shoe represents Anna’s shoes that she is wearing.

According to the experiment, Anna must have fell on the table first, leading the table to knock over. The blood spilled from hitting the table and spattered from that height. The diameter helps determine the height of the person/object. Therefore, we can determine that the blood fell from the table’s height.]]> 2018-10-10 21:50:33 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/291492269 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312911703 With the blood found in the crime scene, we were able to determine the DNA through Gel Electrophoresis. The restricted enzymes are then cut into restriction fragment length polymerizations. Also, because DNA is negatively charged and placed at the starting well, the positive end of the GE will attract the DNA towards it. The shorter the RFLP length, the faster it will reach the positive end. This way, the DNA can be separated into long or short strands, determining the DNA in the crime scene. Overall, we found out that the DNA found in the crime scene belonged to Anna Garcia.]]> 2018-12-10 13:52:40 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312911703 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312912811 By going through Anna’s autopsy report case, we examined her internal and external appearance and sufferings that she had managed to survive through. With these findings, we found out that her manner of death was natural. She must’ve died through the cause of having:

• an infectious disease
• cardiovascular issues
• swelling of the ankles

Due to genetics or becoming obese, there can be some problems with the pancreas hormone creating insulin. The insulin can either be too much or none at all. The differences between all of the Type 1, 2, and Normal diabetes is that Type 1 diabetes can be genetic and the body doesn't produce any insulin. For the Type 2 diabetes, you can get it from over excessive glucose in your body and cause the body receptors to not be able to signal any glucose intake. Normal people will have insulin connecting to insulin receptors to alert the Glut-4 to open a passage at the cell membrane for glucose to be intake by the cell. Furthermore, as for the experiment, we used Anna and two other patients and found what disease they had. Using the GTT test, the graph between all patients are different. We can conclude that both Patient B and Anna has the same level of glucose in their body, but doesn't go back to baseline -- Type 1 diabetes. For patient A, it seems that he/she has normal body functions and is non-diabetic. ]]> 2018-12-10 13:56:11 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312913589 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312919640 The insulin graph shows different levels of glucose over time. We can see from the lines that Anna's body isn't producing any insulin and that Patient A is functioning normally. For Patient B, there was an increase of insulin, leveled straight line, then a decrease BUT not all the way. Therefore, this can show that the patient has Type 2 diabetes. ]]> 2018-12-10 14:07:41 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312919640 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312921855 To find evidence about what Anna has been recently eating and the connection of her foods to her disease can help see how Anna must have died. From the results given, we can say that the excessive glucose from the junk food and the lack of vegetables must have led to the diabetes and her death. This was under the recommendations of what she was supposed to wat and her diet was not appropriate for her being diabetic.
Due to the diagnosis of Anna being diabetic, eating all types of sugary foods is unhealthy for Anna.
We used different tests to find out what was in Anna's stomach. First, we tested the negative and positive controls for each standard test:
- Glucose; Positive: Mustard yellow- green and Negative: Blue
- Starch; Positive: Purple and Negative: Brown
- Protein; Positive: Light Purple and Negative Light Blue
- Lipids; Positive: Transparent and Negative: Opaque
By doing this, we can find out what was in Anna's stomach and what has led to her diabetes and death.]]> 2018-12-10 14:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/312921855 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/352277204 Four components that make up blood: 
- platelets (thrombocytes)
- red blood cells (erythrocytes)
white blood cells (leukocytes)
- plasma

- Patient was given Infant Tylenol to relieve a fever. 
- She is extremely lethargic, experiencing breathing problems, and appears to be in a lot of pain. 
- Patient has pale skin, nails, and lips - lack of oxygen. 
-  Didn't have much of an appetite. 
- Has a bright red diaper rash on the bottom and experiences diarrhea. 
- Pulse: 175 bpm (abnormal heart rate).

- Patient had swelling in the hands and feet. 
- Abdomen is tender to the touch and is enlarged on the left side (splenic sequestration - sickling in the splenic vein, resulting in the collection of a large amount of blood in the spleen. This causes the spleen to become enlarged.) 
- Red BC reduced levels and White BC increased levels. 
- Hematocrit is lower than 20%.
- Blood oxygen is lower than normal, resulting for positive in sickle cell anemia and severe anemia. ]]> 2019-05-07 00:00:18 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/357420921 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/357422442 Anna had a blood pressure of 140/72, which meant she had Hypertension 2.
- She admitted to eating a diet high in both calories and fat.
- She consumes three glasses of wine each day along with an aspirin. 
- Anna also has a family history of early heart disease as well as uncontrolled hypertension. 
- Her father had a heart attack when he was 41 years old. 
Through the use of the punnett square and family pedigree on finding whether Anna has familial hypercholesterolemia genotype (autosomal recessive trait), we ended with Anna being someone who had the disease.
- Tachycardic - a rapid heart beat that may be regular or irregular, which Anna has an average heart rate of 90-105 throughout the day.  ]]> 2019-05-07 00:09:07 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/357422442 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/365710980 - Anna has not been keeping up with a formalized exercise, but does yoga home videos to help herself deal with stress from her illness and job. 
- She experienced a drastic increase in blood pressure as well as a premature ventricular contraction when she was tested on the EKG. This was also during a treadmill stress test. 
- The patient was only able to walk for 8 minutes before the test was concluded, with a max speed 3.5 mph at an elevation of 2% and max pressure of 190/110.

- The pacemaker can be seen by the x-ray and the heart appears bigger than normal.
- In her toxicology, there was evidence of statins, equivalent to 40 mg/dL. Statins is a medication that can reduce the illness mortality for patients who are in high risk for cardiovascular disease. 
- An ACE inhibitor was also used to treat Anna's high blood pressure, but was found untouched for 3-4 days.
- The left ventricular hypertrophy is an enlargement and thickening of the walls in the heart's main pumping chamber (enlarged heart = left ventricle is pumping harder)
- Stent is present in the left anterior descending coronary artery. 
- There was evidence of peripheral vascular disease in the leg. ]]> 2019-06-04 22:24:30 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/365711450 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/365712294 - Heart Attack

Cause of Death -  Stroke
There was a cut examined in Anna's brain that revealed a significant blot or blockage in the middle cerebral artery. This was examined through the Internal Examination of the Cardiovascular System, which helped reveal left internal carotid artery. Due to the lack of energy and the damage of nectrotics, Anna ended up dying with a stroke. 
Long Term Solution - Anna should've dealt with her hypertension better and went to the doctors often. With the increase of cholesterol and LDL levels, Anna was due to end up with a blockage somewhere. 
Short Term Solution - She should have immediately went to the hospital when she noticed the face drooping. Especially Alex should've noticed something as he was there the night before and knew her for so long. ]]> 2019-06-06 23:57:22 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/366243541 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/366245323 2019-06-07 00:15:41 UTC https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/366245323 al391 https://padlet.com/al391/gxskw3p570rx/wish/366245923 Anna, age 10
