HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE
1. Describe the ligand and any external receptors that bind to the ligand. If signaling can occur without an external ligand, explain how this can occur.
2. Describe how the signal is translocated from the exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell. Be sure to describe the specific activity of the receptor in initiating the intracellular signal.
3. Describe the propagation of the signal within the cell from the membrane receptor to the point of cellular response. Provide the details for at least one specific protein interaction that either results in the activation or inactivation of a subsequent protein or signaling molecule to propagate the signal.
4. What is a specific cellular response to the signal. Something will change- what is it?

Consider the following list of evidence to be processed for latent fingerprints. Please write a paper detailing how you would process and recover the latent prints from the items. Clearly explain: 1) why you chose these methods rather than other means of processing and, 2) if the methods you chose would be different if you were operating in the field versus working in a controlled laboratory environment and why.

1. Three pairs of genes with two alleles each (A1 and A2, B1 and B2, and C1 and C2) influence lifespan in a human population. The alleles of these genes have an additive relationship and add the number of years indicated to the lifespan of the individual.
allele | years |
A1 | 15 |
A2 | 4 |
B1 | 16 |
B2 | 8 |
C1 | 13 |
C2 | 9 |
a. If lifespan were entirely genetically determined, what is the minimum possible lifespan and the associated genotype?
b. If lifespan were entirely genetically determined, what is the maximum possible lifespan and the associated genotype.
c. The following is a range of ages from individuals in this population. If the genetic variance is 25.7, measure the broad-sense heritability of lifespan

65 |
77 |

d. Explain what this heritability means, and why the measure may be so low.

Trees and most plants simply keep growing. There are no signals for these organisms to stop getting bigger. Many animals, humans included, only grow up to a certain size. Propose a mechanism by which humans only grow to a particular size. I’m not looking for a specific answer you can find somewhere, I simply want you to think about how you stop growing taller after a certain age. You will need to think about how you control growth from when you were one cell big to your current height.
