A 52-year-old patient presents to the neurology clinic with persistent headaches, nausea, and occasional visual disturbances. MRI imaging reveals a benign mass growing near the midline of the brain, just superior to the brainstem and nestled between the two halves of the thalamus. The physician explains that this mass is beginning to obstruct the normal flow of cerebrospinal fluid, leading to increased intracranial pressure. As a student observing the case, you are asked to predict which anatomical space is most likely being compressed and contributing to the patient’s symptoms.

After suffering a minor stroke, a 67-year-old man begins to experience difficulty walking in a straight line and often overshoots when trying to reach for objects. Interestingly, his speech also becomes slurred, but his cognitive abilities and emotional expression remain largely unaffected. Imaging reveals damage localized primarily to a region in the posterior part of his brain. A medical student reviewing the case suggests that the symptoms likely result from impaired motor coordination rather than muscular weakness or cognitive dysfunction. Question: Based on the information provided, which of the following best explains the role of the affected brain region and the symptoms observed?

Based on the following case description, which Holmes and Holmes classification best fits the serial killer? Marcus was a deeply disturbed individual who believed he was chosen by a divine force to rid the world of evil. He often claimed to hear voices—sometimes from God, sometimes from demons—that commanded him to kill people he had never met. These hallucinations would come suddenly and unpredictably, driving him into psychotic episodes during which he believed he was on a sacred mission. Marcus did not follow a clear pattern in choosing his victims; they were often selected at random based on his belief that they were possessed or inhuman. He made little effort to conceal his crimes and showed no real understanding of their illegality or consequences. When arrested, Marcus appeared disoriented, unable to differentiate between reality and his delusions.

What the four type of delays, which contribute to the overall latency experienced when data travels across a network. Based on the following facts, calculate each of them. If any type of delay cannot be determined, clearly state so in your answer and give the reason why. Host A sends 2000 Bytes in one packet to Host B. There is three routers between the two hosts. The distance between any host/router and the router/host is 20 Km, and the rate on all links are 100 Mbps. Usually, the propagation speed depends on the physical medium of the link, which is equal to, or a little less than, the speed of light. In here, it is 2*108 meters/sec. Assume an ideal router that does not cost any time to move bits from the incoming port to the outgoing port.
