DELIVERY

1. What were some of the difficulties with administering inhalational insulin?

2. Why can’t orally administered insulin be effectively used to treat diabetes (think about what type of molecule

insulin is)?

RELEASE

3. When glucose levels are low, insulin is NOT releases by the beta cells in the pancreas. Which channels are

open and close during this time?

4. When glucose enters the beta cells of the pancreas is that simple or facilitated diffusion? Explain how glucose

entering beta cells leads to insulin release into the bloodstream?

5. Is insulin made fresh every time you want to secrete it or is it stored and ready for release at all times?

ACTION

6. Why can’t insulin receptors be inside their target cell?

7. Once insulin is in the bloodstream, explain how it facilitates the entry of glucose into adipose tissues/cells. Why

does glucose enter and not exit the cell?

8. How does insulin increase the entry of glucose into hepatic (liver) cells during the fed state? What is meant by a

signal cascade?

9. In the fasted state, there is low insulin. Why does glucose leave liver cells instead of entering the cell?

Of 1000 randomly selected cases of lung cancer, 823 resulted in death. Is there sufficient evidence to say the true proportion of lung cancer deaths is different than 85% at a significance level of 5%.

1. Are the normality assumptions satisfied? Explain why.
2. State hypotheses.
3. Calculate the test statistic
4. What is/are the critical value(s)?
5. What is your decision?
6. What is the conclusion/interpretation of this decision?

Imagine that you are studying a species of guppy in which mature males are observed to have bright orange tails, while females and immature fish have grey tails. You decide to test whether sexual selection can explain this dimorphism.

a) Describe an experiment to test this hypothesis. Include details about what you will measure. Draw and label two diagrams: one showing potential data that would refute your hypothesis, the other showing potential data that would support it.

b) A competing colleague discovers that some mature males in this population have grey tails, and publishes a paper claiming that this evidence shows that sexual selection could not explain the dimorphism in tail color in this species. Do you agree or disagree? What observations or experiments could help you refute your colleague’s conclusion?

As adolescents separate from their parents and gain a sense of control, sometimes they are unable to balance stresses. As a result, depression may occur, and, at times, suicide may be the outcome. Choose the topic of either adolescent depression or adolescent suicide. Discuss contributing factors and signs and symptoms that may be observed or assessed in these clients. Describe primary, secondary, and tertiary methods of health prevention for this topic. Research community and state resources and describe at least two of these for your chosen topic. What nursing interventions could you use to assist an adolescent you suspect is depressed beyond referring the adolescent to a state or community resource?

Your individual response should have a 1. minimum of 300 words excluding your reference citation 2. need to use two peer-reviewed/scholarly resources to support your response 3. at least one in-intext citation

1) What is IRC section 751 recapture and how is it taxed? is it ordinary or capital?

2) How does it impact your gain on the sale of an appreciated asset?

Statistics students at a state college compiled the following two-way table from a sample of randomly selected students at their college. Answer the following questions about the table . Be sure to show any calculations.

a. How many students in total were surveyed?

b. How many of the students surveyed play chess?

c. What question about the population of students at the state college would this table attempt to answer/

d. State H o and H a for the test related to this table.

Pretend that you have been called as an expert witness for the defense to discredit an eyewitness. Based on your knowledge of social psychological research, think of at least five reasons the eyewitness cannot be trusted. Cite psychological research and then use your creativity to explain how it applies to the case you are testifying for. In other words, explain the social psychological concept and then give an example of how something that happened to the eyewitness might suggest he is not the best witness. In addition, comment on which of the findings about eyewitness testimony you personally found the most surprising or interesting and why.

Question 1: In the casino game Roulette, a bet on “red” will win if the ball lands on one of the 18 red numbers of the 38 numbers on the wheel, with each number being equally likely. You want to run a simulation that will estimate the probability of a player winning both bets when betting on red twice. Which of the following would be an appropriate setup for the simulation:

I. Use a table of random digits to select one number from 01 to 38 and then a second number from 01 to 38. If the first number is between 01 and 18 and the second number is between 01 and 18, then the player has won both rounds.

II. Use a table of random digits to select two numbers 01-38, without repeats. If both numbers are between 01 and 18, then the player has won both rounds.

III. Use a table of random digits to select two numbers 01-19, allowing repeats. If both numbers are between 01 and 09, then the player has won both rounds.

A) I

B) II

C) III

D) I and II

E) I and III
