Vinnie is a professional road cyclist participating in the 2020 Giro d’Italia, a three-week race nearly 3,600 km in distance with some stages exceeding altitudes of 2,700 m above sea level (i.e., Stelvio Pass, Italy). As the newly hired head of the high-performance team, it is your responsibility to manage his preparation for the event. You must demonstrate to your team a fundamental understanding of physiology, the chronic adaptations expected from his training, and methods that could be implemented to improve the likelihood of success.

Q7)

Given that the average distance of each leg is 170.5 km in distance, and sometimes undulating in elevation, you understand that fatigue is inevitable. The energy depletion model of fatigue focuses around the concept that depleted substrates are just one source of fatigue, particularly observed in muscle glycogen and phosphocreatine stores.  

1. As an aerobic event, why do you expect depletion in glycogen and phosphocreatine?

Why, specifically, is it crucial to replenish muscle glycogen stores prior to the next leg?

Q8)

As the event is soon approaching, parts of Hungary are experiencing a heatwave. Indeed, temperatures may exceed 32° Celsius during the first leg of the race leaving Budapest.

1. Will the ambient temperature have any impact on Vinnie’s performance?

In terms of thermoregulation, what physiological changes are likely to occur during this leg of the race? Explain how these changes may influence

Explain why high ventilation to a region of the lung could be considered ‘wasted’ ventilation. What local controls exist to counteract this effect? [4 marks]

Which statement about the Sublingual gland is true?

It secretes only serous fluid.

It secretes mainly mucous fluid.

It secretes both serous and mucous fluids equally.

It is a salivary gland found just below the mandible.

1. What is meant by oxygen saturation? Can we achieve 100% oxygen saturation of hemoglobin without a hyperbaric chamber?

A surgical technology student is being supervised by the CST preceptor during a Whipple procedure. The CST comments that the student will have learned several procedures by the time they are done with this case.

1. What does the CST mean by his statement to the student?

2. What are the different procedures that constitute a Whipple procedure?

3. Discuss the different instrument trays that will be used for this case.

4. What type and size of suture is typically used for a subcuticular closure? What type of needle do you anticipate would be used?

5. Which incision is used most commonly for emergency surgery? Which incision is least likely to have an incidence of incisional herniation but a greater chance of infection or nerve damage?

3 ways the endocrine system works to regulate kidney function.

1. False or true that it has no relationship whatsoever to the sympathetic nervous system or to the blood pressure, the glomerular filtration rate?

2. Over production of aldosterone will lead to low blood levels of potassium, true or false?

3. Is true or false that aldosterone is released due to high blood pressure at the kidney?

4. Is true or false, that the oxyntic glands produce the pepsinogen, mucous, intrinsic factors, histamine, and HCL?

5. Is true or false that the S-cells in the small intestine produces secretin and pepsinogen?

6. Normal Reabsorption coefficient is 12.5?

Can you explain to me how our renal system would bring the body back to homeostasis in the renal system?

Explain "clonal expansion" of lymphocytes and how it contributes to the features of adaptive immunity, such as specificity, elimination of pathogens and memory.
