1. Meat, eggs, and dairy are good sources of protein. When you eat these foods, proteins are digested and absorbed. Follow a protein through the digestion process from the mouth through to the intestines. What enzymes are involved in its digestion? What is the smallest unit that proteins are broken down into? Where are these products absorbed?

2. What are a few things proteins are used for in the body once they’ve been absorbed?


3. Once in the body, amino acids are absorbed by our cells and enter the amino acid pool. From here, a cell will draw from the pool to assemble the proteins it needs at that specific time. What will happen if one or more of the essential amino acids are missing?


4. Describe (in your own words) the four structural levels of a protein.


5. What is the relationship between a protein’s structure and its function? Explain how amino acids side chains impact protein structure and function.


6. DNA guides protein assembly. When there is a mutation in our DNA, the impact on the protein can vary. Explain why some mutations can cause no change to the protein and some can completely disrupt the function of the protein.


7. Your body prefers not to use proteins for energy, but it will as a last resort. Explain how amino acids are broken down to generate ATP in this scenario.

8. What happens to the nitrogen portion of the amino acid?


9. Your doctor measures your nitrogen balance and finds it is negative. What does this mean about how your body is using protein? How can you balance out your nitrogen levels?

10. If you decided to become a vegetarian or vegan, how would you ensure you were eating adequate protein? Think about not just the amount, but also the essential amino acids.

11. The RDA for protein is listed below. Calculate your own personal protein requirements and show your work for full credit. You will need to convert your weight to kg. There are 2.2 lbs in 1 kg.

Ex: a 50 kg adult would need 50 kg*0.8 g/kg = 40 g protein per day

A firm has a single-channel service station with the following empirical data available to its management.
i) The mean arround rate is 6.2 minutes
ii) The mean service time is 5.5 minutes
iii) The arrival and service time probability distributions are as follows:

Arrivals ( Minutes)         Probability              Service Time (Minutes)                Probability
3-4                                  .05                           3-4                                          .10
4-5                                  .20                           4-5                                          .20
5-6                                  .35                           5-6                                          .40
6-7                                  .25                           6-7                                          .20
7-8                                  .10                           7-8                                          .10
8-9                                  .05                           8-9                                          .00
Total                               1.00    1.00          

The queuing process begins at 10:00 am proceeds for nearly 2 hours. An arrival goes to the service facility immediately; if it is empty otherwise it will wait in a queue. The queue. The queue discipline is first come first served. If the attendant's wages are K10,000 per hour and the customer's waiting time cost K11,000 per hour, would it be an economical proposition to engage second attendant?

In recent years, a growing array of entertainment options competes for consumer time. By 2004, cable television and radio surpassed broadcast television, recorded music, and the daily newspaper to become the two entertainment media with the greatest usage (The Wall Street Journal, January 26, 2004). Researchers used a sample of 15 individuals and collected data on the hours per week spent watching cable television and hours per week spent listening to the radio.
a. Use a .05 level of significance and test for a difference between the population mean usage for cable television and radio. What is the p-value?
b. What is the sample mean number of hours per week spent watching cable television? What is the sample mean number of hours per week spent listening to radio? Which medium has the greater usage?

Goodyear Commercial Retread facility recycles worn or damaged tires to retread two sizes of tires, medium and large, for tractor trailers. To fill one client’s order, they will use a combination of three machines to manufacture the retreads and will need to produce at least 54 medium tires and 59 large tires. In one hour, Machine I can produce 2.5 medium tires and 5 large tires, Machine II can produce 4.5 medium tires and 3 large tires, and Machine III can produce 5 medium tires and 10 large tires. The cost per hour to operate Machine I, II, and III are $8, $9, and $10, respectively. There are two combinations of using the three machines that produce the same minimum cost. What are those two combinations and what is the minimum cost?
