The condition of the patient Colleen who fell down from the stairs and bumps her head several times. The diagnosis revealed an epidural hematoma in the temporoparietal area and the hematoma is pressing against the brainstem. Introduction: The injury caused in the brain of Colleen after falling down from the stairs is several bumping in her head. The diagnosis and scanning revealed the formation of epidural hematoma in the temporoparietal area. The injury causes damage to the arteries and veins causing an obstruction on the flow of blood. The blood reaches epidural space after crossing the blood-brain-barrier, due to increase in the pressure inside the skull.

In a population of Jackalopes (pictured below), horn length will vary between 0.5 and 2 feet, with the mean length somewhere around 1.05 feet. You pick Jackalopes that have horn lengths around 1.75 feet to breed as this appears to be the optimal length for battling other Jackalopes for food. After a round of breeding, you measure the offsprings' mean horn length is 1.67. What is the heritability of horns length (h2)? Is Jackalope horn length a heritable trait?

There are many differences between DNA replication happening during mitosis in a Douglas fir tree growing in the Oregon Cascade Mountains and DNA replication happening during a PCR reaction in a forestry research lab at Oregon State University where the laboratory is amplifying a Simple Sequence Repeat. Complete the following table that compares the two DNA replication events in terms of the primers, the nucleotides, the polymerase, and the target sequence. Additionally, give a general value for the number of copies of the template DNA after one S phase in one cell and after the lab has completed the PCR reaction.
