(b) If the witness is testifying as an expert, testimony of the witness in the form of opinions or inferences is limited to such opinions as the judge finds are (1) based on facts or data perceived by or personally known or made known to the witness at the hearing and (2) within the scope of the special knowledge, skill, experience or training possessed by the witness.
(c) Unless the judge excludes the testimony he or she shall be deemed to have made the finding requisite to its admission.
(d) Testimony in the form of opinions or inferences otherwise admissible under this article is not objectionable because it
embraces the ultimate issue or issues to be decided by the trier of the fact.
