Surname2Recently, Earl attended a picnic at his daughter's school. The picnic was a potluck, and the foodwas served outdoors. Contributions included hamburgers, hot dogs, baked beans, potato chips,potato salad, coleslaw, apple pie, and vanilla ice cream. Within 24 hours of the picnic, severalattendees developed symptoms of food poisoning. Of the 50 people who attended the picnic,only 30 people became ill. Every person at the picnic ate something, but not every person had anopportunity to sample each item. Earl noticed that the potato salad he started to eat was warm.He also noticed that his hamburger was somewhat pink in the middle and not fully cooked. Earlwonders if eating the hamburgers or the potato salad could be responsible for making someattendees ill. Earl has begun to apply the scientific method to this common problem. Completeeach of the following tasks in 200 to 300 words.1. How would the scientific method help Earl create an experiment to determine which foodsources made people sick?2. Describe the steps of the scientific method Earl utilized3. Describe the remaining steps Earl will use if he decides to use the scientific method todetermine what made the people sick.

Find a media piece—article, video, presentation, song, or other that recognizes thefundamental concepts of chemistry in biology. Include a link or reference citation for the pieceand describe how it helped you better understand how fundamental concepts of chemistry affectbiology.After my research at www.infoplease.com it has helped me to understand how fundamentalconcepts of chemistry affect biology by breaking down the concept of why chemistry andbiology goes hand in hand. Infoplease, (2000-2014), stated that biology explained the living partsof the world and their environment. It also said that biology requires a little knowledge ofchemistry and that it is important to know aspects of chemistry to make biology come alive. Weall know that the understanding of chemistry requires a little mathematic but it is not important togo into detailed mathematical applications to understand the principles of biology. So what arethe fundamental concepts of chemistry in biology? Biology overlaps with chemistry inexplaining the structure and function of all cellular processes at the molecular level.Reference: Pearson Education. (10/2013). Infoplease.
