Question

4. A scientist decides to use mice for a model of frontal head trauma and traumatic brain injuries (TBI). Some patients who suffer from frontal TBls have difficulty smelling, and have difficulty moving as well. The scientist decides to put mice in small cars, and proceeds to eject them into a concrete wall head first. This scientist decides to use motor activity as a complete index of motor function, and the scientist claims that it is a perfect model for neuromotor dysfunction in TBl. Why might this assumption be incorrect?

Explanation / Answer

The scientist used motor activity which is by ejecting mice from moving cars into concrete wall, motor activity doesnot relate to motor function of the mice so the assumption of the scientist is wrong.
