Diagram and describe how uncoupling proteins work, including their effects on cellular respiration. Explain how these proteins might play a role in thermogenesis and the control of reactive oxygen species such as superoxide. (Hint: you’ll need to explain the ETC and proton gradient for this.)

How was liquid hybridization used to compare species relatedness? What is the purpose/significance of Driver versus Tracer DNA? What is Subtractive Hybridization, how/why would you use this technique?
Compare Maxam-Gilbert and Sanger DNA sequencing methods. What are the more descriptive names for these techniques? How are the techniques similar? different? What reagents are used in each reaction? How are the results read? Do you get the sequence of the molecule you started with or the complementary molecule? How does fluorescent cycle sequencing differ from the original Sanger Method?

Diagram and describe how eukaryotic photosynthesis works. Include a labeled diagram of the appropriate cell structures, and show where each step occurs. (The level of detail for this question should be equivalent to the respiration question. This question is about the fundamental C3 pathway; you don’t need to include photorespiration or alternate photosynthetic pathways.)

Diagram and describe how eukaryotic cellular respiration works. Include a labeled diagram of the appropriate cell structures. Show where each of the main stages of respiration occurs. (Hints: The book shows several diagrams of various parts of cellular respiration. For this question, I’m asking you to create one integrated diagram that shows all the parts of the process in one diagram. Your diagram can clearly show where everything goes, but you’ll need some text to explain the energy involved. Your answer should account for all the ATP, NADH, and FADH2 that are produced and used. Note that there are cycles for these 3 molecules. You don’t need to give the names or structures of all the chemical intermediates involved in glycolysis & the citric acid cycle, but you should know the reactants and final products. Be sure to indicate how each substance crosses membranes when necessary.)

#1. You have two pure-bred dog strains of Labrador retriever: Yellow (BBee) and Brown (bbEE). You friend wants to have a pure-bred puppy with black coat color. Let’s assume this set of coat color variations follows recessive epistasis with the allele ‘ee’ masking B or b.
A) provide breeding schemes
B) after breeding experiments, provide a scheme of identifying the
pure-bred one with black
color. Also, what is the frequency of the pure-bred one among the black puppies.
#2. In the rat, the gene for the pigment (P) is dominant to no pigment (p). The gene for black
(B) is dominant to the gene for cream (b). If a pigment gene (P) is absent, genes B and b are inoperative or non-functional, resulting in albino phenotype.
A) What kind of inheritance patterns is this? Provide a brief
explanation.
B) Provide the genotype and phenotype of the F1 of a cross between
homozygous black rat
and an albino homozygous for cream.
C) If you self-cross the F1 describe above, what kinds of rat will you see in terms of genotype and phenotype?

The inheritance rule was initially discovered by Mendel and it depends on clear or qualitative traits. The theory was based on a single gene that was responsible for one character. However, expression of many traits are not governed by a single gene, rather can involve multiple genes as well as additive effects. This kind of inheritance pattern is known as quantitative and is demonstrated by East (1916) as well as others. He performed experiments using 2 homozygous, pure-breeding lines of Nicotiana longiflora that differed in corolla length. After crossing these lines, F1 offspring had an intermediate length for corolla and had same variation level as in parents. But found a very different result for F2 and F3 than expected. Discuss the reasons for this result and if it agrees/disagrees with Mendel’s law. Using obtained knowledge so far, what kind of cumulative effects would you add to this variation?

Samira is a 22 year old female. She is very close to her ideal weight, but complains about being obese all the time. She tries to diet, and is constantly on very low calorie diets. She also has in her bag a famous herb product that helps her get rid of all the toxins in her body (or so she claims). She has been going through a tough time lately. She has a lot of studies and she works at the same time. She loves to eat alone. However, when faced with a crisis, her friends have noticed she starts to eat hungrily and does not stop. One of her friends even noticed she always goes to the toilet directly after her meal.
1- Identify the type of eating disorder that Samira might be suffering from?
2- List the different characteristics that justify your answer
3- Mention one similarity and one difference between both types of eating
disorders
4- Define and explain the FEMALE ATHLETE TRIAD?
5- Mention two unhealthy consequences of EACH eating disorder
