In 2012, a fraternity at the University of Tennessee was suspended
because a member of the fraternity, student A, was admitted to the
hospital with alcohol poisoning. Student A had a blood alcohol
level of 0.4, which is in the “death zone” for alcohol poisoning.
After questioning, it was revealed that two students were having a
drinking competition, Student A consumed vodka via an enema,
rectally, and Student B consumed vodka orally (P.O.). Student A and
B consumed the same amount of alcohol however, Student B did not
get alcohol poisoning. Provide a rational for why Student A
experienced alcohol poisoning and Student B did not. Be sure to
describe in detail the different routes of administration and the
expected alcohol plasma concentrations.

Match the following events of an action potential to the most appropriate description. Answers will only be used once.

Please Answer all A-D question

Discuss the function and importance of the autonomic nervous system

Discuss one specific receptor type of the general senses; give location, type, and function

Describe the main differences in the way that skeletal and smooth muscles contract

21. Bicarbonate is reabsorbed into the epithelial cells of the proximal convoluted tubule as ________________.

1. HCO3-
2. CO2
3. H2CO3
4. Carbonic anhydrase

22. Loop diuretics block the Na+/ 2Cl-/K+ cotransporter on the ascending loop of henle. How does this reduce water reabsorption?

1. By preventing the reabsorption of sodium ions, water is not reabsorbed from the ascending loop of henle
2. It causes hyperkalcemia which stimulates Aldosterone secretion, thereby, indirectly causing the excretion of sodium, potassium and water.
3. It abolishes and/or reduces the osmotic gradient between the descending loop of henle and the ascending vasa recta
4. It increases the sodium ion concentration in the loop of Henle which stimulates the release of ADH causing an increase in water excretion.

23.During World War II when there was a shortage of penicillin, an anti-gout medication, Probenecid was administered with penicillin. Why?

1. Probenecin blocks the filtration and secretion of Penicillin
2. Probenecid blocks the filtration of Penicillin
3. Although penecillin is filtered, Probenecid blocks the organic anion transporter on the basoalateral membrane of the proximal tubule preventing secretion and urine loss of penecillin
4. Probenecin blocks organic cation transporters on the apical membrane of the proximal tubule, preventing the secretion of penicillin

24.What type of compensation would you expect in a patient with metabolic alkalosis?

A. A compensatory respiratory acidosis caused by a decrease in respiratory rate

B. A compensatory metabolic acidosis caused by an increase loss of bicarbonate in the urine

C. A compensatory respiratory alkalosis caused by an increased in respiratory rate

D. A compensatory alkalosis caused by an increased loss of H+ in the urine

Please answer in short and quick
a) Dug ABC is an orally administered anti-asthmatic drug, which is a substrate of CYP1A2. It is given to a patient who is on Drug XYZ, which is known to be a CYP1A2 inducer. Will it be appropriate for the patient to take Drugs ABC and XYZ together? Explain your answer

b) Drug ABC undergoes glomerular filtration and proximal tubule secretion. Explain what will happen if a patient has reduced blood flow to the kidneys.
