  1. Most people who are completely blind have circadian rhythms that are “free running”; that is, their circadian rhythms are not synchronized to their environment time cues and they oscillate on a cycle of about 24.5 hours. Why do you suppose the circadian clocks of blind people are not entrained to the same 24-hour clock as the majority of the population? Can you guess what symptoms might be associated with a free-running circadian clock? Do you suppose that blind people have trouble sleeping?

  2. When cells enter mitosis, their existing array of cytoplasmic microtubules has to be rapidly broken down and replaced with the mitotic spindle, which pulls the chromosomes into the daughter cells. The enzyme katanin, named after Japanese samurai swords, is activated during the onset of mitosis and cleaves to microtubules into short pieces. What do you suppose is the face of the microtubule fragments created by katanin?

The following questions are related to glucose and its transport into cells.
A. Why do cells need a protein to transport glucose across the cell membrane? i.e.could glucose simply diffuse across the lipid bilayer? (1 point)

B. Even after glucose is transported into the cell, there is effectively no increase in intracellular glucose concentration. This can be attributed to the action of hexokinase, the first enzyme in the glycolytic pathway. Explain. (2 points)

C. GLUT1 is a glucose transporter found in many cells. It facilitates the movement of glucose down its concentration gradient. GLUT1 has a lower KM for glucose (~1 mM) than its family member GLUT2 (~15mM). Except during starvation, the brain uses glucose as its sole metabolic fuel and consumes ~40% of the glucose circulating in the body. Which of the two, GLUT1 or GLUT2, would you expect to find in brain tissue? Explain. (2 points)
