The idea is to find a new or novel advancement in medicine to do with Physiology only. That is I don't want advancements in other fields e.g. immunology, genetics, cancer, microbiology and so on.

So you discuss the problem or disease including initially normal physiology followed by a description of the disease. Then discuss the novel advancement and how it is helping patients to improve their lifestyles.  

The presentation should be between 5 - 6 minutes but not exceeding 6 minutes and 30 seconds.

explain the relationship between gas partial pressure, diffusion, and respiration through the mammalian respiratory/ circulatory systems.

Martha decided to make some delicious homemade baked mac and cheese. She placed it in the oven that was really hot and when it was ready she took it out. While she left for a second, her son Elijah came in the kitchen and immediately went to grab the hot dish and yelled “OOWWW I BURNT MY HAND” his pain receptors screamed.

1. Which of the following correctly described the afferent pathway?

a) Transduction of the pain occurred outside the peripheral axons of the primary afferent neuron.

b) The AP travels through the cell body then the peripheral axons then the central axon

c) The AP travels through the peripheral axons then the cell body then the central axon.

d) Two of the above

e) None of the above

2. Elijah immediately took his hand off the dish by contracting his biceps. How did he accomplish this?

a) Shortened the sarcomere by shortening the thin and thick filaments

b) While shortening the sarcomere, he lost his H zone and the A band.

c) The troponin left the tropomyosin to do its job in covering up the actin binding site so cross bridges can’t form.

d) Two of above

e) None of the above

3. Elijah was so scared and frightened that he started having trouble breathing and became really anxious. As a patient with COPD, he was having a really hard time breathing so his mom ran to get his inhaler. What did the albuterol inhaler do?

a) Albuterol binds to cholinergic receptors in the bronchioles to move more air.

b) Caused his bronchioles to constrict.

c) Risked the possibility of the albuterol binding to adrenergic receptors in the heart and cause an EPSP

d) Two of the above

e) All of the above

1.) Trace the path of a mature oocyte from ovulation to implantation.

2.) Explain how the uterine lining and the mammary glands support the developing baby

Describe how fertilization and implantation take place? Include the listed parts as you describe the sequence of events that occur (ovary, fimbriae, ampulla, oviduct, uterus (fundus and body), cervical canal, vaginal tract). Write a brief list of the differences between the 1^st 2^nd and 3^rd trimesters of gestation?

A. Which cells are responsible for blood clotting?

B. Name 3 major steps of blood clotting.

Short answer questions: How can a problem with the ciliary body or the canal of Schlemm lead to development of glaucoma? Make sure to explain the following.

            A. What is glaucoma?

            B. What would need to happen by the ciliary body for glaucoma to develop assuming the canal of Schlemm is working properly?

            C. What would need to happen with the canal of Schlemm for glaucoma to develop assuming the ciliary body is working properly?

Cancer chemotherapy is designed to destroy cancer cells, but adversely affects healthy tissues as well; thus, the oncologist has the difficult task of killing the cancer without killing the patient. What side effects are expected from destruction of blood cells? (Identify physiological systems that might be effected). How might the body respond? (form your answer in this format: system effected - effect - response)

Please help :) thank you

How does the twitch response to skeletal muscle?

Locate and discuss the differences between the dorsal white column (fasciculatus gracilis and fasciculatus cuneatus) and spinothalamic tract afferent pathways and pyramidal and extrapyramidal motor pathways. Discuss why there are two separate afferent and efferent pathways rather than just one afferent and one efferent pathway.

please answer
