What does ELISA stand for? What are ELISA assays used for in labs? Give at least three examples. Briefly describe two limitations of an ELISA. Please use your own words. Which portion of the blood is used for the test? Explain. In five sentences, summarize how an ELISA assay “works.” How is the test quantified?

List the 3 major factors that alter vascular resistance (diameter, length, viscosity) and then give a specific example how we can alter each of those specific factors during our lifetime. In your example be sure to mention what impact that change has on blood distribution and a person’s health.

Briefly describe Boyle’s, Dalton’s, and Henry’s laws as they relate to respiration. Give an example how each law can used to explain some alterations in respiratory function.

13. A patient comes to the hospital imaging lab where you work. The patient suffers from a rare genetic condition in which the contractile cells of her heart have limited conductivity. You are asked to perform an ultrasound or echocardiogram of the patient’s heart. As you view the video monitor, what would you expect to observe about the patient’s heart function as you view and analyze the contracting?

Muscle contraction and fatigue prompt:

You are talking with a friend who has recently started an exercise regimen, and they comment that they are planning to quit because they experience muscle soreness following their workouts. In your communication assignment for this week explain why this occurs. You should focus on the molecular mechanism of muscle contraction and how muscles become fatigued. You should also discuss the ways muscles adapt to changing activity levels at the molecular level as you encourage them to increase their fitness level.

1. a) what is a nephron? Please name its parts.
     b) what is the action of the aldosterone and the ADH, and where are they produced?

1. The human body has various types of muscle. Describe how the various muscle types (i.e. skeletal, cardiac, and smooth) contribute to the efficiency of a road cyclist. In this discussion, please include the location of each of the various muscle types in the body. If the muscle type is found in multiple areas in the body, focus on the areas most relevant for this type of exercise
