A) In the experiment, you have measured hormones Gastrin, Cholecystokinin (CCK), Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (GIP), Secretin, and Motilin over a 2 hour period following consumption of both meals. Describe any changes (i.e. increase, decrease or no change in hormone levels) following consumption of the two different meals (High Fat and High Protein).

B) For the hormone(s) that were identified as increasing in response to the meal, explain:

• The mechanism(s) behind their secretion (i.e. what is the stimuli for their secretion) (2.5 marks)
• What is their role when secreted? (2.5 marks)

As humans grow from babies to adults, our brains become less and less able to repair themselves after brain injury. Though our brains retain an amazing capacity for change, they no longer are able to repair injuries caused by a stroke, head trauma, or neurological disease. Why do you think is? Provide an explanation for why this occurs. Your explanation can be either evolutionary (that is why hasn’t evolution led to humans whose adult brain can repair itself?) or physiological (what important changes might cause this transition from babies to adults?)

Why is it that marketers generally find greater dissimilarities in social and cultural values as they do down the economic strata? Remember, this is an international business class. Your answer should not be limited to markets in one country. It’s a global question. As well, it is an economic question (marketers). What changes as target markets become less wealthy? Why? What is the impact of technology on this concept? Will technology ultimately create globalized markets? Use at least two sources to support your position. Be sure to cite your sources. i dont want example in india only

The following comparative current asset information has been extracted from a balance sheet for two successive years. Complete a horizontal analysis for years 0007 too 0008 and a vertical common-sized analysis for year 0008. show the increase (+) or decrease (-) in dollars and the percentage of changes in the horizontal analysis

mtr: tryptophan-specific transport protein – transports tryptophan into the cell

trpA: tryptophan synthase, a protein – synthesizes tryptophan from its basic components

cusF: Periplasmic copper binding protein – binds copper ions

tnaA: Tryptophanase – enzyme for tryptophan catabolism

trpB: Tryptophan synthase, b protein – synthesizes tryptophan

Q. If tryptophan caused the expression level to change, explain why these changes occur for each gene (that is, how does the presence of tryptophan in the media influence expression of the gene...you should be able to infer this based on each gene’s known function).

How is technology changing interpersonal relationship in our contemporary society? Think of cell phones, blackberries, Ipads, Ipods, etc. Do you think these changes are good or bad, or good and bad? Explain Is there any indication that technology is making our lives better? Could it be that earlier, simpler societies such as hunting and gathering societies, were superior than our own in terms of human relationships? Watch these videos.

AP9.3 Anna has the task of designing the audit program for the payroll area. There have been no recent changes to the payroll system or to its interface with the general ledger. Among other tests, Anna is considering using the following substantive analytical procedures to gather evidence:

1. Compare payroll tax expenses (such as state and federal unemployment taxes) to the annual payroll multiplied by the statutory tax rates.

2. Compare the relationship between direct labor costs and number of employees with prior periods.

Required

Evaluate the persuasiveness of the evidence obtained from each substantive analytical procedure.

We are looking at the market for gasoline in the United States, this week. Begin with the market in equilibrium. A report is released that we should expect the price of gasoline to rise in the near future, with up to a 50-cent increase sometime next week. Assume that we all have access to this information. Graph the changes and answer the following questions:

How do the unhappy participants react?
