Question

Matthew cringed as he saw the blue lights flashing in his rearview mirror. He was coming home from a party and missed the red light at the intersection he just drove through. Once police stopped him, Matthew tried to assure an officer that he had not consumed any alcohol that night, just some mini sausages, cheese, mixed nuts, birthday cake, and punch. But after failing the field sobriety tests, Matthew was handcuffed and taken to the police station. At his sentencing for driving under the influence, Matthew’s lawyer petitioned the judge to dismiss the charges, asserting that his client suffered from a rare medical condition known as "auto-brewery syndrome." The lawyer explained that recent doctor's tests had revealed an abundance of microorganisms within Matthew's intestines which were responsible for his intoxicated state that night. This situation might have been prevented if Matthew had not consumed which of the following? Choose one or more: A. nuts B. punch C. sausage D. cheese E. cake

Step 1

Step 1: Identify the key mechanism — auto-brewery syndrome is caused by microorganisms (often yeasts such as Saccharomyces or Candida) in the gut that ferment dietary carbohydrates and sugars into ethanol, producing intoxication without drinking alcohol. Show more…

00:09 This is with regard to matthew who seems to be facing quite a few issues at school.

00:21 He seems to be having a problem with his reading, writing.

00:28 He has temper outbursts and doesn't do well when confronted.

00:35 How do we help him? now the first part of this question is the supports that he needs.

00:44 We are going to first we are going to plan an iep for matthew.

00:49 We need to look at supports that he needs and accommodations.

01:13 What can we do to help him to perform well at school? the first one could be that since he is having a difficulty with it has not been specifically mentioned he understands when he's told but writing is a problem.

01:37 So maybe we can get abridged versions of the textbooks that he's expected to read to make it easier for him.

01:52 The second one very very important could be scheduling regular counseling sessions for him to help him to get over.

02:16 He seems to be facing behavioral issues so to help him with this.

02:24 And another thing that can also help matthew would be to permit him to give oral responses.

02:34 You know there should be a balance not expecting him to write everything all the time but a balance between written responses and oral responses.

03:01 Now this will help him also in the abridged versions of textbooks.

03:08 They could be color coded to make it more interesting and seem more user friendly.

03:15 So the text could be color coded diagrams and figures could be used which will allow him to understand content easily.

03:34 Now the second part of the question is when you have to plan an iep to help him with participation in the class and also how can he be helped when it comes to testing...
