For Aaron's biceps muscle to be able to generate the same amount of tension as before the accident, the muscle fibers that were not damaged would need to generate more tension to make up for the fibers that were damaged. Explain how these healthy muscle fibers would do this. Would the Ca2+ concentration in the cytoplasm in the healthy muscle fibers need to increase or decrease to generate a stronger contraction? How does this happen?

n chapter 10, you will learn about emerging viruses. At this very moment, the entire world is coming to grips with the newly emerged coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. In the past several decades, many other viruses have emerged as well (Ebola, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, Swine flu, Zika, and HIV for example). For this assignment, I want you to do some research of your own in the literature and complete the following:

  1. Choose a virus that has emerged in the past century and discuss how that virus impacted the human species (E.g. healthcare, economically, our understanding of viruses in general). (Must have at least 1 reference)
  2. Discuss why these viruses are emerging in general (E.g. climate change, humans encroaching on habitats). (Must have at least 1 reference)
  3. For this portion of the assignment, you will be coming full circle and making reference to Chapter 1 when you learned about how to distinguish pseudoscience from scientific, peer-reviewed facts. You must find an article that discusses a myth or misconception about SARS-CoV-2 and then provide a follow up article that has been peer-reviewed that explains WHY the misconception is incorrect (E.g. the virus was made in a lab, etc.). (Must have at least 2 references)

This assignment is more involved than previous blackboard discussion posts so in order to receive full credit you must write at least three paragraphs.  I want you to explain and discuss the findings in YOUR OWN WORDS. Do not copy and paste from the articles you reference. If you need to reference a line from the articles specifically make sure to properly cite the reference with quotations.

1) List two physiological ways in which camels respond to hot, arid conditions. Explain HOW and WHY these adaptations help camels survive hot, arid conditions.

2) Camels have a long loop of Henle and a well-developed medulla. What are the purposes of these anatomical features? How do they help camels survive the hot, arid climates? Link what you learned in the lecture videos with this article.

3) Describe one way that camels reduce their water use and how this contributes to their ability to survive hot, arid climates.

4) What would happen if an Angus steer (the steer is acclimated to living in Northern Colorado) was transported to and immediately dropped off in The Mojave Desert? Describe 3 physiological effects that would occur. What are the results of these effects?
