Evaluating Two Arguments Read the arguments below.
Then, answer the question about the arguments.

Argument One: Patient 23 felt sick during week 3 because he was infected with the C. jejuni bacteria. From “The Human Microbiome” article, I know that “this kind of C. jejuni infection can cause diarrhea, vomiting, and fever—all the symptoms of food poisoning.” These symptoms match the doctor’s note for Patient 23 for week 3. When Patient 23 felt healthy during week 1, the C. jejuni bacteria was not present in his gut microbiome. In week 3, when he felt sick, C. jejuni was present. Therefore, C. jejuni is probably the cause of his sickness.

Argument Two: Patient 23 felt sick during week 3 because he was infected with the C. jejuni bacteria. C. jejuni is very bad for you. He probably ate something spoiled. My sister got food poisoning once.

These two arguments both answer the question Why did Patient 23 feel sick during week 3?
Which of these arguments is more convincing? Explain your thinking below.

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i.e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
