I would like you to consider how resident rights in long term care facilities address quality of care and really the quality of life of our residents. This is critical that we focus on promoting the rights of our residents. Please compose 3 paragraphs in support of this concept. You can also describe how compromising a resident right can cause many problems.

DELIVERY
1. What were some of the difficulties with administering inhalational insulin?
2. Why can’t orally administered insulin be effectively used to treat diabetes (think about what type of molecule
insulin is)?
RELEASE
3. When glucose levels are low, insulin is NOT releases by the beta cells in the pancreas. Which channels are
open and close during this time?
4. When glucose enters the beta cells of the pancreas is that simple or facilitated diffusion? Explain how glucose
entering beta cells leads to insulin release into the bloodstream?
5. Is insulin made fresh every time you want to secrete it or is it stored and ready for release at all times?
ACTION
6. Why can’t insulin receptors be inside their target cell?
7. Once insulin is in the bloodstream, explain how it facilitates the entry of glucose into adipose tissues/cells. Why
does glucose enter and not exit the cell?
8. How does insulin increase the entry of glucose into hepatic (liver) cells during the fed state? What is meant by a
signal cascade?
9. In the fasted state, there is low insulin. Why does glucose leave liver cells instead of entering the cell?

3. In the space below draw a typical nerve action potential, and identify the important components discussed in class. Next, explain in detail the physiological mechanisms (diffusion, concentration gradients, gates. etc) responsible for causing an action potential. Lastly, compare and contrast conduction in myelinated vs. unmyelinated neurons.

Can you explain in detail how a hand, wrist, and arm work together to left an object on a table from point A to point B. Such as the anatomy and Mechanics of the human hand. Example would be grabbing coke can and moving it to a different spot on table. (Talk about Wrist, Carpus, Metacarpus, Fingers, Muscles, Power grip, Connective tissue and tendons, etc.) Thank you and in paragraph form.
