Murder Victim Ate At Krogh's Essay

Decent Essays
Yes the hypothesis does support that the murder victim ate at Krogh’s. Yes even though that lipids were tested for negative all the foods contained lipids. It could not be the Sparta Dairy and Anthony Franco’s Pizza because both contained glucose which was tested negative for. It had to be Krogh’s because it contained proteins when Forno Italiano does not. The problems that were countered during the test were when the group tested negative for lipids. The group would test again but what would happen if it was tested negative. Putting a smaller amount of Contents would work, what about getting another test tube with a different section of the Contents. Everything could affect how much lipids, carbohydrates, and protein one has. Let’s take lipids …show more content…
Another thing is if someone put too much or too little of a solution the exact result that was supposed to be acquired would not happen. Like if a scientist were testing to see if there is starch in a non-starch liquid, if they put too much Iodine the liquid would turn black and would not get the exact information. These findings help police find a criminal if the food was poisoned. Most poisons are inhibitors that block substrates from doing chemical reactions in the enzyme which is a complex protein. If the person was poisoned then the police are able to narrow down the suspects. An extension question to further investigate this topic is that are the test that were given work all the time. A person or group would repeat the test multiple times with the same contents and record see if it tested negative or positive for lipids, proteins, carbohydrate-glucose, and carbohydrate-starch. You would do the test ten times and see if you get the same result ten times in a row. If it does not happen that means that the test does not work all the time or something was did wrong when doing the

    Serial Killers Essay

    A lot of people want to blame the parents of the offenders, asking “what did you turn your child into?” 36% of serial killers were physically abused, 26% were sexually abused, and 50% were psychologically abused (Mitchell and Aamodt 45). Many people have logically come to the conclusion that just because someone is abused, it does not mean that they will become a serial killer; or even a murderer; which is true. In the general population (people who have never committed murder) only 6% are physically abused, 3% are sexually abused, and 2% are psychologically abused (Mitchell and Aamodt 45). The dramatic difference of abuse frequency between people who are serial killers and people who are not seems evident enough to support that serial killers are created.…

    • 8 Pages

    Patrick Wayne Kearney is known as an American serial killer whose main target was homosexual young men. From 1962 to 1977, he (with the help of a partner) committed more than forty acts of murder and was sentenced to life in prison. These flagrant acts led to speculation about his motives and past, prompting investigations even after Kearney was behind bars. Although almost nobody wants to think about gruesome murders, it is still interesting to see what caused Kearney to do what he did. Patrick Kearney came to be an infamous murderer of the twentieth century and the timeline of his life is split into the psychological mishaps of his childhood, his fifteen year killing spree, and the consequences he faced after his crimes were placed before…

    In this lab we learned the basics of enzymes and how they work. We were able to perform a quantitative assay of the activity of an enzyme in a tissue extract using a spectrophotometer. Also, we had to organize the data that was provided into tables and graphs so we could have the ability to test a few hypotheses. For example, we tested the whether the rate of the reaction was influenced by enzyme concentration, whether the activity of the enzyme was influenced by temperature and also too see if the activity of the enzyme was influenced by the pH of the solution, which you will then see the results on the graphs and charts that I provided. In figure one we show results of the trial run from the enzyme activity where the absorbance was at 500nm.…

    Aaron Cole November 20, 2017 Professor Brozgal Paper 2 Murder in Memoriam: Discovery of Truth Taking influence on real historical events, Didier Daeninckx’s prize winning second novel—Murder in Memoriam—crafts the widely known historic reality of the Holocaust with the overlooked tragedy known as the massacre of Algerians on the 17th of October in 1961. The two events are expertly crafted to create a world of universal truth at last acknowledged. Tying these histories together by use of characters, presentation of unknown truth, as well as applying agency to three points of views, Daeninckx works to legitimize the lesser-known events of the Algerians to fully realize the literary purpose of Murder in Memoriam.…
