1. A patient with deep vein thrombosis in his leg comes into the emergency room because the clot in his leg has broken free. To the dismay of the doctor, the clot, which began in the great saphenous vein of the leg, has now lodged in his kidneys. At first, the doctor is baffled as to how that could happen. However, looking at the patient’s medical records, she discovers that the patient has a history of heart problems. Specifically, the patient has suffered from valvular stenosis of the atrioventricular valves, as well as a foramen ovale that did not close completely at birth.
   1. Why was the doctor initially surprised to find the clot in the kidneys? What organ did she expect it to be in? (1 point)

2. Only one of the two heart conditions listed could explain how the clot got to the kidneys. Which one? (1 point)

3. Trace the path of the clot from the great saphenous vein to the interlobar artery of the kidney in detail, naming all the blood vessels/heart chambers along the way. You may find the last section of Chapter 20 helpful here. (7 points)

Messages are transmitted from one neuron to another via the synapse process. IN YOUR OWN WORDS: Define neurotransmitter, the four main categories, and their role in cell communication.

Barnett is African-American. One in twelve of those who are of African descent, including African-Americans, are carriers of the gene for sickle cell anemia. Barnett applies for a job at Best Buy, which is aware of the statistics for sickle cell anemia. Before Best Buy will offer Barnett a job, it requires that Barnett undergo genetic testing to determine if he is a carrier. Discuss the legal issues with Best Buy's requirement. What are Barnett's options and what would you advise him to do?

Explain passive and active immunity.

The mechanics of blood flow in the body follows the laws of fluid dynamics for tubes with a constant diameter and length. Which statement is correct?

The flow of fluid in a tube depends upon the absolute pressure at the beginning of the tube. The rate of fluid flow in a tube will decrease if the pressure at the beginning is increased while the pressure at the end of the tube stays the same. The greater the resistance to flow in a tube, the greater the rate of flow for any given pressure difference. If both the resistance and the pressure gradient in a tube increases, the fow must also increase. The rate of flow in a tube will decrease if the resistance to flow is increased.

What would change if the lungs did not produce Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme?
