which one of the following deaths would not necessitate an autopsy?

death of the victim at the willow lane scene
death of a 40 year old man at the scene of a robbery

Explanation:

For Question #2: In standard medical and legal protocols, the next of kin is the party that must grant permission for an autopsy, unless the death is linked to a crime (in which case authorities can proceed without this consent).
For Question #3: An autopsy is typically required for sudden, violent, or suspicious deaths. The death of an elderly, ailing person is an expected, natural death that does not need an autopsy, unlike the other options which involve sudden or crime-related fatalities.

Answer:

Question #2: D. the next of kin
Question #3: A. death of an ailing 86 year old woman
