500

The application of the principles of the natural sciences, especially biology and physiology, to clinical medicine. Jobs in this field are preformed by medical detectives. (The route in high school that you will be able to take)

What is BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE?

500
A rare change in the DNA of a gene, ultimately creating genetic diversity?
What is a mutation?

500
When running DNA analysis of samples collected at a crime scene, forensic pathologist wear gloves in order to avoid?
What is HUMAN ERROR, CONTAMINATION?
500

Explain how a signal travels from one neuron to the next and what the brain does with that signal.

Goes from dendrite to cell body, into the axon and out the synapse where it enters the next neuron's dendrite. Once it reaches the brain, the motor neurons decipher the signal and send an output.
