Scientists can access the risks of trans fats by conducting an appropriate experiment which will show the effects of the fats on the human system.
This can be done by feeding known quantity of trans fats to rats over a specific period of time. During the period, the change in the rat weights will be measured on the daily basis and every other changes that is noted in the rats will be noted down. A control group of rats will be included in the experiment; these rats will be given normal rat feeds and not trans fats.
 When the period of feeding is completed, the rats will be killed, all the organs in the rats such as liver, blood, brains, kidney, etc will be harvested and these organs will then be biochemically analysed in order to compare the changes in them with that of a normal rats.
Rats are usually used in biochemical research because their systems and that of human is comparable. Any negative effect of trans fats that is noted in the rats will also hold true for human beings.

Why would albert's symptoms be localized only to the right side of his body?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

This question is from a case study which i went through to find the answer of the question. In the case study Albert suffered from a stroke in which his left side of the brain was affected. However, the symptoms were present in the right side of the body.

This actually happens when a person experiences stroke his symptoms are present only in single side of the body because of the rupture of the blood vessels in specific side.

As we know that when  descending nerve tracts intersect each other, the right side of the body is controlled by left side of the brain and left side of the body is controlled by the right side of the brain.

Therefore, when the symptoms of Albert were localized in only right side, it was concluded that Albert had suffered the damage in right side of the brain.


Hope it helps!
