  1. Catabolism of fatty acids stimulates gluconeogenesis in all of the following ways EXCEPT:
  1. By contributing to the production of NADH
  2. By providing carbons for the glucose skeleton
  3. By activating pyruvate carboxylase
  4. By contributing to the production of ATP
  5. By producing Acetyl-CoA

55. [NADPH/NADP+] is maintained at a high level in cells primarily by:

  1. Lactate dehydrogenase
  2. The combined actions of glucose -6 phosphate dehydrogenase and gluconolactonase
  3. The action of the electron transport chain
  4. Shuttle mechanisms as the α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase shuttle
  5. The combined actions of transketolase and transaldolase
  1. If a cell requires more ribose-5-phosphate than NADPH:
  1. Only the first phase of the pentose phosphate pathway would occur
  2. Glycolytic intermediates would flow into the reversible phase of the pentose phosphate pathway
  3. There would be sugar interconversions but no net release of carbons from glucose-6- phosphate
  4. The equivalent of the carbon atoms to glucose-6-phosphate would be released as 6CO2
  5. Only part of this need could be met by the pentose pathway and the rest would have to be supplied by another pathway.

  1. Which one of the following is NOT characteristic of the hexose monophosphate pathway?
  1. It produces CO2
  2. It uses NADP+ as a cofactor
  3. It produces ATP
  4. It produces ribose-5-phosphate
  5. It produces glyceraldehydes-3-phosphate

  1. A person with less than 10% of the normal amount of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase would likely :
  1. Be at risk for hemolytic anemia and persistent chronic infections.
  2. Be unable to produce sufficient  levels of pentoses for nucleic acid synthesis
  3. Have a glycogen storage disease.
  4. Have a fatty liver
  5. Have a reduced ability to produce NADP

  1. When the PLC second messenger system is activated, which of the following causes an increase in intracellular Ca2+?
  1. Phosphatidyl inositol (PI)
  2. Phosphatidylnositol-4-phosphate(PIP)
  3. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5- biphosphate(PIP2)
  4. Inositol triphosphate(IP3)
  5. Diacylglycerol

Choose 2 (TWO) of the following PAIRS of terms related to PLANTS to compare and contrast (this means that you need to explain both shared features and distinguishing features in the pair). You also need to include at least ONE specific phylum for each term.
For example:
microgametophyte and megagametophyte: These terms refer to organisms found in the 4 phyla of the the Gymnosperms and the Anthophyta in the plant Kingdom. The microgametophyte is contained within the pollen grain and contains the sperm and the megagametophyte contains the egg and is enclosed in integuments. They are both produced by different types of spores (microspores vs. megaspores) .

Choices: CHOOSE TWO PAIRS

  • homospory and heterospory
  • ovary and ovule in plants
  • Archegonia and antheridia
  • seed and spore

please answer the following questions 1-3.


1)Why could corticosteroid use trigger invasive disease?


2)What is the difference between acute and chronic when it come to disease in general? What is another example of a disease which can be chronic or acute?


3)What is the mechanism of action of the three main antifungal drugs in use (polyenes, azoles, and allylamines)? What is hepatotoxicity? This link may help you.

1.) Explain how combinatorial control makes it possible to have far fewer transcription factors than the number of genes that are transcriptionally regulated.

2.) If a miRNA were 5 nucleotides long, what is the chance of finding a complementary sequence in a randomly selected 5 nucleotide sequence in mRNA? [Assume mRNA sequences to be random and that mRNAs have an equal amount of each nucleotide (A, U, G, and C)]. If an miRNA were 10 nucleotides long, what is the chance of finding a complementary sequence in a randomly selected 10 nucleotide sequence in mRNA? If you were designing a synthetic miRNA to specifically target a particular mRNA, would you want to design a 5 or 10 nucleotide long miRNA? Why?

3.) In the fungus Neurospora crassa, roughly 2 – 3% of cytosines are methylated. Researchers isolated Neurospora DNA sequences that contained 5-methyl cytosine and found that almost all methylated sequences were located in inactive copies of transposable elements. On the basis of these observations, propose a possible explanation for why Neurospora methylates its DNA and why DNA methylation in this species is associated with transposable elements.

4.) Some cases of bacterial gene regulation involve use of alternative transcriptional terminators. Propose a plausible way that a riboswitch could function in the use of alternative bacterial transcriptional terminators.
