2. Describe the flow of bile from its site of production to where it enters the GI tract.

3. Describe the movement of Oxygen and CO2 in gas exchange between the lungs, blood and peripheral cells. You do not have to give exact numbers for the pressures. Indicate the direction of the movement of the gases.

4. If a person had end diastolic volume of 150 mL and end systolic volume of 70 mL with a heart rate of 100 bpm, what is their stroke volume and cardiac output?

5. The blood hydrostatic pressure (HPb) at the arterial end of the capillary is 35 mm Hg. The HPb at the venous end is 15 mm Hg. The colloid osmotic pressure of the blood is 25 mm Hg. Calculate net filtration pressures and say where filtration and reabsorption occur.

6. Describe hormonal changes during the different stages of the menstrual cycle.

Hyperparathyroidism is a rare disorder resulting from overactive parathyroid glands (they secrete too much parathyroid hormone, or PTH). Where does PTH act and what does it do? What do you think happens to the bones of people with this disorder and why? How does this disorder relate to osteoporosis? What other body systems might be affected?
