Type a 500-600 word response to this topic below:

The B cell response is largely associated with the generation of a tailored antibody response to combat pathogens. This involves a number of steps from the naive B cell’s from first encounter with antigen to becoming an antibody secreting plasma cell, secreting high affinity antibody of a useful isotype.

With this general theme in mind, paint a picture in word of the processes and interactions that occur in secondary lymphoid organs that result in the generation and secretion of high affinity, isotype switched antibodies.

During the process of turning filtrate into urine,

Group of answer choices

the proximal tubule and Loop of Henle are responsible for reabsorbing most of the water and Na+.

Water is reabsorbed only in the collecting ducts.

The Loop of Henle decreases filtrate volume by removing water from the filtrate in the ascending limb.

Secretion of H+ occurs only in the proximal tubule.

A relative of yours has recently been diagnosed with mitral regurgitation, a heart condition where the mitral valve does not function as it normally should. Your relative knows you are studying human physiology and asks you the importance of valves in heart function.

  1. a) Describe the pathway of blood flow through the heart starting from the vena cava and ending at the aorta. Include in your answer the role of the valves in ensuring the one-way direction of blood flow
  2. b) From your knowledge on the normal role of the mitral valve, what are two potential complications that could arise as a result of mitral regurgitation?

Case:

Ms. D, a mother approaching her 35th week of pregnancy reports to an urgent care facility with her husband. She complains of diffuse abdominal pain, weakness, and dizziness that started approximately 3 days earlier. Her blood pressure is 145/95 mm

Hg. The laboratory technician does a quick urinalysis and detects 1 + protein in the patient's urine. A blood sample is drawn, the physician calls the woman 's obstetrician, and the woman and her husband are sent to the hospital.

Questions:

27. What condition does Ms. D have?

Pre-eclampsia with severe features because Mrs. D

28. Why is this considered a serious situation?

29. What are the possible complications of this condition?

Case:

A 24-year-old woman and her 26-year-old husband are unable to conceive. The couple has had unprotected intercourse for approximately 18 months, with no resulting pregnancy. The husband's infertility workup is completely normal. Both individuals are avid runners and participate in marathons at least four times each year. The wife's infertility workup came back with a repeat follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level of more than 40 IU/L. She had an FSH determination about a month earlier that was also more than 40 IU/L.

For questions 30-31 refer to the case above:

30. What condition accounts for the couple's inability to conceive?

31. Are follow-up hormonal tests necessary? Why or why not?

This task focuses on your ability to 'critically' watch a video and form your own opinions - in favour of/ against /neutral about the approach taken by the doctors in FIJI to treat a crisis on Diabetic complications.

In Fiji there is one diabetic amputation every 12 hours. This is devastating for a country with a population around 1 million. This inspirational talk is by Dr Jone Hawea who is a surgeon and spent many years in this field, and particularly around diabetic amputations.
