Discussion about; Losing and gaining weight
Obesity is a big problem in the industrialized countries. Nutrition facts now have been added to the labels on the food items, so people can use them to regulate their diet. Do you think that including the nutrition facts in the food labels is going to solve the obesity problem? What other suggestions do you have to solve this problem?
Please make sure to type it and make it clear.

FIVE CLINICAL CHEMISTRY QUESTIONS:
1. What is the origin of AFP in the amniotic fluid? When do AFP
levels peak in amniotic fluid? In maternal circulation? When should
maternal blood levels be drawn?
2. What other test performed on amniotic fluid may confirm the diagnosis of a NTD? What values (elevated, decreased) will this assay take if a NTD is present?
3. Describe the delta O.D. spectrophotometric test for amniotic fluid bilirubin and discuss the clinical significance of abnormal results. (Include a description of Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn)
4. Briefly describe the changes in lipid composition of amniotic fluid before and during fetal lung maturation.
5. Describe the triple marker screen for Down syndrome and the expected changes from normal values for each in an affected pregnancy.

(A) the absolute electrochemical potentials, under standard conditions, of the following reactions: (i) H+/H2, (ii) O2/H2O (pH = 1). What is the spontaneous direction of reactions (i) and (ii) if reaction (i) occurs by electron exchange with the conduction band while reaction (ii) occurs by electron exchange with the valence band? Under such conditions, which of the two semiconductors can achieve water splitting (2H2O ® 2H2 + O2)?
(B) The position of the band gaps of the compound semiconductors SrTiO3 and Fe2O3
SrTiO3: band gap is 3.2 eV, conduction band edge = -3.8 eV,
valence band edge = -
6.9 eV. Fe2O3: band gap is 2.2 eV, conduction band edge = -4.8 eV,
valence band edge =
-6.9.
