How Drugs Impacts our brain and body

Our bodies, as the great machine ever constructed, gets damage by the misuse of substance, that is call damaging addictions. The addiction is the cause for the destruction of this amazing machine that starts when we force it to react in the way that is not supposed to work. Everything starts in our brain: When dopamine is diminished due to the mistreatment of our brain instruments (opium receptors, neurons, etc…) that controls the release of this very important substance, that tell us “this feels good”. One will uncontrollably became obsess with an unreal “survival” mode, that is call addiction. Drugs can accelerate dopamine into our body in an irregular speed making our brain violently abused and in consequence damage.

Our body will also suffer due to the injury of the brain. If the brain is mistreated will make us feel unmotivated to do or act in a healthy way affecting the health of our body too. The mistreatment of our brain and body creates the environment of the addict. The addict, nonstop, will not comprehend how or why, the nail on their head like the short video that we saw last class, makes them feel unmotivated to create a healthy life for themselves or anyone around them.

Taking a red blood cell from X-Y includes vessels, chambers and valves of heart.

1) heart to capillary bed of right thumb and back to the heart (presume LV to RA)

2) left pulmonary vein to right great toe

3) superior mesenteric artery to the inferior vena cava

4) from the heart to the brain and back to the heart (presume LV to RA)

Discuss the concept of an “upper motor neuron” vs a “lower motor neuron”. List all the neurons and their motor system pathways that might be considered upper motor neurons. Describe the consequences of a lesion to an upper motor neuron and a lower motor neuron. This answer should address issues of muscle tone, reflexes, and any other characteristics that help to differentiate between upper and lower motor neuron lesions. Give some common examples (i.e. diseases, dysfunctions, trauma) when these respective lesions would occur. What is the prognosis for recovery from UMN and LMN lesions. What are the differences between spasticity, rigidity, decerebrate rigidity and decorticate rigidity?

When thinking of the cell and all of its component organelles, can you compare anything in society that simulates the cell and it's inner workings?

Dieting is common in our society and everyone wants a piece of the action. So many diets are available to choose from if someone wants to change their health; e.g., lose weight. Often times, diets are promoted with claims of great success.

Choose a particular diet and analyze it in terms of scientific evidence, or lack thereof. Then, design a controlled experiment to test a hypothesis based on this diet. The experiment must include multiple individuals within a control and experimental group. Specify how you will measure the outcome of the experiment identifying both the independent and dependent variables. Describe the potential outcomes of the experiment in terms of supporting the hypothesis.

We classify foods into three groups based on their chemical compositions: Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Fats. The digestive and absorptive process differs among these groups due to their chemical structures.

For each of these macromolecules:

1) Come up with an example of each -- what's your representative food item of carbohydrate, protein, and fat.

2) Identify their chemical structures for monomer unit, and the macromolecule polymer.  

3) Determine the digestive reaction that splits the macromolecule into monomers: starch into glucose units; proteins into amino acids; and TAGs into free fatty-acids.

4) identify the digestive enzyme that catalyzes each of these reactions.

Explore the relationship between the human body systems, (musculoskeletal, GI, metabolic, cardiovascular and respiratory) and the flight environment.

Mirror Neurons and Behavior

Research scientists postulate that we imagine ourselves acting out or mirroring movements that we see. This ability seems to be genetic or hardwired since infants can imitate the movements of others. It is possible that mirroring actions is adaptive and may play a role in learning how to do things, and it may facilitate social interactions. More interesting than the actions is the thought that we may have special neurons in our brains that help facilitate imitation. These neurons have been named mirror neurons, and they can be found not only in human beings but also in nonhuman animals.

Answer the following questions:

• Mirror neurons have a distinctive shape and a specific location in the brain. What are the morphology (shape) and location of mirror neurons? Does their location seem to make sense, given that the neurons are thought to play a role in imitation?
• Some nonhuman animals have mirror neurons in their brains. Which other species have mirror neurons? Are these animals more social than animals that do not seem to have mirror neurons?
• When there is a relatively new discovery in the brain, that discovery is often used to explain current diseases and disorders. What are the applied research trends for mirror neurons in the scientific literature? Are there any particular disorders that are being connected to mirror neurons? What is it about these disorders that make people connect them to mirror neurons?

In this laboratory experiment, you wanted to see the effect of Amylase with starch. So you performed the following:

In tube 1 - Combine equal volume of Amylase with Starch solution

In tube 2 - Combine Amylase with water

In tube 3 - Combine water with Starch solution

Let all three tubes sit in a 37C waterbath for 20 minutes. After the 20 minutes incubation was over, then you would test for the presence of starch. In the meantime, what would you predict? Based on what you know about enzymatic digestion, what do you expect here in these tubes? After the incubation period we added Iodine solutions to each tube to test for starch. Here are the results:

In tube 1 - white cloudy solution

In tube 2 - Yellowish solution

In tube 3 - Dark red solution

Explain this result, what happened in each tube? Why is adding iodine important to detect the presence of starch?
