To the right is a liposome - a hollow sphere made up of a lipid bilayer (like a cell) but without any membrane proteins. Of the listed molecules, which, if any, would you expect would be able to freely move (diffuse) across the membrane (based on their size and polarity)? Choose ALL that would cross.

a) chloride ion (small, polar)

b) fatty acid (medium, nonpolar)

c) glucose (medium, polar)

d) nitric oxide (small, nonpolar)

e) sodium ion (small, polar)

Case study #2

Digestive system

Ms. K, age 79yrs old, has developed a partial obstruction in her colon. She was having difficulty with bowel movements and was nauseated, anorexic, and dehydrated. Surgery revealed diverticulitis with considerable fibrosis causing the obstruction. A colostomy was required.

Diverticulitis - Diverticulosis happens when pouches (diverticula (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.) form in the wall of the colon (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. If these pouches get inflamed or infected, it is called diverticulitis (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. Diverticulitis can be very painful.

1. Why would she have difficulty passing feces?
2. Why do you think she would be nauseated and anorexic?
3. Why would she be dehydrated?
4. How would fibrosis affect the functioning of the colon?
5. Why would a colostomy be necessary?

What are the primary and secondary muscles involved in a pull up, bent over barbell row, quadruped single arm row, and reverse fly (dumbbell)?

Please break up the muscles into primary and secondary groups and list the exact muscles instead of groups of muscles. Thank you!

The E. coli chromosome contains 4,639,221 bp.
(a) How many turns of the double helix must be unwound during replication of the E. coli chromosome?
(b) From the data in this chapter, how long would it take to replicate the E. coli chromosome at 37 °C if two replication forks proceeded from the origin? Assume replication occurs at a rate of 1,000 bp/s. Under some conditions E. coli cells can divide every 20 min. How might this be possible?
(c) In the replication of the E. coli chromosome, about how many Okazaki fragments would be formed? What factors guarantee that the numerous Okazaki fragments are assembled in the correct order in the new DNA?

For this assignment, you will complete a 15-30 minute session of any type of massage or acupressure. You will need to either 1) practice self-massage techniques from Exercise 19.1 of the book OR 2) get any type of professional massage or acupressure to complete your session. This practice is designed to help you with your physical practice at managing stress. This should be for a minimum of 15-30 minutes (you can practice this technique for longer and more than once if you would like). This time is not meant as added stress, but as practice to determine which techniques may work best for you.

When you have finished your session please complete the following:

A description of the activity (15-20 sentences about how you completed the activity): What did you do? (Be specific - You will need to include some names or descriptions of the process that you completed.) How did the activity make you feel physically? (Was it difficult, easy, etc.?)

After you complete your practice of this technique, please reflect on the experience with a minimum of 2-3 sentences for each response. Answer the following statements for each technique:

1. Describe any recurring thoughts you had during your practice of ______________:

2. Describe any difficulties you experienced during your practice of _____________:

3. Do you think this technique will help you manage and/or reduce your stress levels? Why or why not?

Please submit via on line text. Take your time, enjoy the experience. Give yourself the time to physically feel if any of these techniques work for you.

For your responses, please be specific to the stress reduction activity that you are practicing. Please be clear that you actually tried the activity. If your response is too general, you will likely not receive full credit for the assignment.

On an ECG printout, explain the three parts of the cardiac cycle and what each represents in terms of heart action.

What is the benefit of looking at a 12-lead vs. a 4 or 6 lead ECG?

According for FITT recommendations for women who are pregnant, what is the intensity for aerobic activity?

Select one or more:

a. Moderate intensity (3-5.9 METS; RPE 12-13); Vigorous intensity (>6 METs' RPE 14-17)

b. Intensity that permits multiple submax repetitions (8-10 or 12-15) to be preformed to a point of moderate fatigue  

c. A variety of weight and non-weight bearing activities are well tolerated

Discuss the parts of the pacemaker system, and give two examples of cardiac problems related to the disruption of the electrical communication between, at least, two components of the intrinsic conduction (pacemaker.)

The body uses many different types of signals. Types include:

1.   action potentials

2.   cytoskeletal signals

3.   neurotransmission

4.   paracrine/autocrine

5.   endocrine.

1. Qualitatively, how fast is each of these signals transmitted?

2. How do each of these signals differ in their distance of action? Are these contact-dependent, local, or can they affect distant targets?

3. Besides speed and distance of action, what are some advantages and disadvantages of these signal types? Describe as many as you can.

What could happen if cells remain in the cell cycle indefinitely?

2.Some tumor suppressor genes inactivated during multi-step tumorigenesis may be readily identified because of LOH in the chromosomal region carrying them, while others may be difficult to identify in this way. Describe the factors that allow or complicate this identification.
