Wayne Williams was a suspect in the murder of a number of African-American young men and boys, but was only convicted in two cas

es. His conviction was based on fiber samples found on victim's bodies that matched carpet in William's home and hair samples that were consistent with William's hair. Many years later, DNA testing confirmed that the hair matched Wayne William's hair with 98% accuracy. Why wasn't the DNA testing completely conclusive?
A) an insufficient number of hairs were found
B) William's had a twin who lived in the area
C) the root of the hair follicle wasn't attached
D) William's hair was identical to the victim's hair

I think the answer is letter A. In this case, most of the hair found at the crime scene were from his dog or some fiber from his green carpet.  These evidence had lead to his conviction of the crime as he was declared guilty after several test and investigation.

When the body senses a state of hypoperfusion, the sympathetic nervous system releases epinephrine, the effects of which?
lutik1710 [3]
Heart rate is controlled by the two branches of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) releases the hormones (catecholamines - epinephrine and norepinephrine) to accelerate the heart rate. The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) releases the hormone acetylcholine to slow the heart rate. Such factors as stress, caffeine, and excitement may temporarily accelerate your heart rate, while meditating or taking slow, deep breaths may help to slow your heart rate.
