The Assignment  Working with the same groups from last week, answer the questions about the following case:

Charmica is working on a delayed embalming case that has been in refrigeration for 5 weeks. She sees a green substance that has begun to grow on the decedent’s face and fingernails. She also sees that the abdomen has begun to turn green, and that there are bubbling blisters on the legs of the decedent.

2) Thinking of the length of time that the case has been deceased, as well as the conditions the deceased was exposed to, list the types of microorganisms you might expect to find, and why you might expect to find them. (Hint: I’m not looking for specific names of microorganisms. I’m looking for classifications based on what they require to survive, such as temperature, light and moisture.)

Resources You may use your textbook, the CDC website, or any scholarly resource at your disposal. A scholarly source is a source that has been peer reviewed. A good resource for this is Google Scholar.

Acceptable Length: As long as the questions are answered, with the reasoning behind them provided, I will not require a specific length

Formatting Requirements 

  • Use one-inch margins.
  • Use a 12-point Times New Roman font.
  • Use double line spacing in the document.
  • Use  APA Citation Style
