multiple choice
maggots can be used to help predict pmi for a body discovered
hidden among the tall weeds of field
twenty years after death
on an ice flow off the alaskan coast
buried in a deep wet grave
Maggots develop on a body under certain conditions. They require a suitable environment (like being in a field with access to the body). If a body is twenty years after death, maggot activity would have long since ceased. On an ice flow (cold environment) or buried in a deep wet grave (limited access), maggot development is not favorable. Maggots are more likely to be present and useful for predicting PMI (post - mortem interval) when the body is in a more accessible and suitable (for maggot development) outdoor environment like among tall weeds of a field.
