  1. Based on someone being sick or getting a immunization and then gaining resistance to that pathogen, make a graph representing a first exposure and second exposure to a foreign antigen with antibody production. Y axis should be antibody levels with X axis being time/exposures. Include which antibodies would be more prevalent and during which exposure (IgG, IgM, IgA,etc.)
  2. A person has a wound and a foriegn pathogen enters the body. Create something that demonstrates how the body is going to react to this situation. Include the following items in this:
    1. MHC Class I
    2. MHC Class II
    3. B Lymphocytes
    4. T Lymphocytes
    5. Neutrophils
    6. Dendritic cells
    7. Antigen Presenting cells
    8. Mast Cells
    9. Macrophages
    10. Monocytes
    11. Natural Killer Cells
    12. Antibodies
    13. Antigen
    14. Lymph Nodes

1. Consider the urinary system
(a) What are the three basic renal processes leading to urine formation?
(b) Consider the net filtration pressure (NFP) according to the following information,
Glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure (GBHP): 90 mmHg
Capsular hydrostatic pressure (CHP): 35 mmHg
Blood colloid osmotic pressure (BCOP): 40 mmHg
Mean arterial pressure (MAP): 93 mmHg
(i) Calculate the net filtration pressure (NFP). Show your calculations.
(ii) Suppose a tumor is pressing on and obstructing the left ureter. What affect might
this have on CHP and thus on NFP in the left kidney? Would the right kidney
also be affected?
(c) Name the hormone that regulates plasma osmolarity. Briefly explain how the hormone
works in regulating plasma osmolarity and urine formation when the body has an
increase in plasma osmolarity.

Like all viral pathogens, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, or SARS-CoV 2 (I know, how topical), requires a cell surface receptor in order to invade a given host cell. For SARS-CoV 2, this receptor is actually the enzyme Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2, or ACE2. ACE2 is responsible for downregulation of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System by deactivation of Angiotensin II. Explain the RAAS in detail, including the roles played by kidneys and the lungs, and then explain what effects using recombinant human ACE2, or rhACE2, to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome could have on blood pressure.
