Answer: Homeostatic regulation refers to adjustments in physiological systems that are responsible for the preservation of a constant internal environment. This enables cells to maintain metabolism and the chemical environment that stabilizes the living state. Learning Outcome: 1-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Analyzing 2) During exercise, blood flow to skeletal muscles increases. The initial response that increases blood flow is automatic and independent of the nervous and endocrine systems. Which type of homeostatic regulation is this? Why? Answer: The initial increase in blood flow to active muscles is an example of autoregulation. For example, when oxygen levels decline in a tissue, the cells release chemicals that dilate local blood vessels. This dilation increases the rate of blood flow and provides more oxygen to the region even before responses from the nervous or endocrine system take place. Autoregulation does not require the nervous or endocrine system. Learning Outcome: 1-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Analyzing

Answer: Dynamic equilibrium is defined by a system that is capable of adapting and adjusting to changing conditions in order to maintain a normal range of values. In thermal regulation at equilibrium heat loss is equal to heat production. As circumstances changing and our bodies experience more muscle contraction we increase heat production. In order to maintain equilibrium the body must shed excess heat produced by the muscles so that heat loss and heat production are again equal or in equilibrium.

Essay Questions 1) The element sulfur has an atomic number of 16 and mass number of 32. How many neutrons are in the nucleus of a sulfur atom? If sulfur forms covalent bonds with hydrogen, how many hydrogen atoms can bond to one sulfur atom? Answer: The number of neutrons in an atom is equal to the mass number minus the atomic number. Thus, sulfur has 32 - 16 = 16 neutrons. The atomic number indicates the number of protons, so a neutral sulfur atom contains 16 protons plus 16 electrons to balance the protons electrically. The electrons would be distributed as follows: 2 in the first electron shell, 8 in the second, and the remaining 6 in the third. To achieve a full 8 electrons in the third (outermost) electron shell, the sulfur atom can accept 2 electrons in an ionic bond or can share 2 electrons in a covalent bond. Because hydrogen atoms can share one electron in a covalent bond, the sulfur atom can form two covalent bonds with hydrogen, one with each of two hydrogen atoms. In chemical notation, this is H2S. Learning Outcome: 2-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Analyzing 2) What role do buffer systems play in the human body? Answer: Buffer systems help maintain pH within normal limits by removing or replacing hydrogen ions as needed. Learning Outcome: 2-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Blood has a very narrow normal pH range but urine has a very broad normal pH range. What does that indicate about the physiology of pH? Answer: Homeostasis requires that the pH of body fluids be maintained almost constant to avoid disruptions of healthy function. To accomplish this, the urinary system eliminates or retains hydrogen ion as needed. These actions cause the pH of urine to vary widely, depending on whether there is too much or not enough hydrogen ion in the body.

6) Explain three physiological benefits that are a result of the heat capacity of water. Answer: First, because water requires a large amount of heat to break the hydrogens bonds and vaporize the resulting benefit is that water is a liquid over a broad range of temperatures allowing physiological reactions to function. Second, because water absorbs a lot of heat before it vaporizes, as perspiration evaporates from the skin it takes with it a lot of heat thereby providing us with a mechanism for cooling. Third, because water requires a large amount of heat to change temperature, large bodies of water will change temperature slowly. This means that the water in the body will be slow to change overall and will provide a thermally stabilizing effect around which we can maintain our core body temperature.

Essay Questions 1) Describe the ways that proteins of the plasma membrane allow a cell to control its internal environment or interact with its external environment. Answer: Carrier proteins and channels help control the cell's internal environment by allowing specific materials to enter the cell. Anchoring proteins connect the cell's cytoskeleton to extracellular proteins or to other cells. Recognition proteins allow immune cells to identify the cell. Receptor proteins allow the cell to respond to external signals such as hormones. Finally, enzymes can carry out chemical reactions inside or outside the cell, depending on which face of the membrane they are attached to. Learning Outcome: 3-1 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) Which organelles are involved in membrane flow? Trace the route of a single integral membrane protein from formation to incorporation into the plasma membrane. Answer: All membranous organelles are involved in membrane flow. Those most directly associated are the ER, Golgi apparatus, secretory vesicles, and plasma membrane. A membrane protein would be synthesized in the RER, then flow through the cisternae to a transport vesicle. There the protein will be moved to the forming face of the Golgi apparatus, where it will slowly travel upward toward the maturing face, usually becoming modified along the way. Once reaching the maturing face of the Golgi apparatus, the protein would be embedded in the membrane of a secretory vesicle and transported to the plasma membrane. There the vesicle will fuse with the membrane, inserting the protein in the cell membrane. Learning Outcome: 3-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) What organelles would be enhanced in a cell that produces digestive enzymes and secretes them into the intestine? Why? Answer: Digestive enzymes are proteins, and they are produced at a high rate while a meal is being digested. Organelles that would be enhanced include the nucleus, which would have larger or more numerous nucleoli for making ribosomes; a larger number of ribosomes for making proteins; increased rough ER, where proteins to be secreted are made; more numerous or larger Golgi apparatus, where proteins are packaged for secretion; and more secretory vesicles to carry the enzymes to the surface of the cell. Learning Outcome: 3-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) Differentiate between transcription and translation. Answer: In transcription, RNA polymerase uses the nucleotide sequence on DNA to construct a complementary strand of mRNA. In translation, ribosomes use information carried by the mRNA strand and tRNA to synthesize the corresponding polypeptide. Learning Outcome: 3-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding

5) When a person receives intravenous fluids to help build up blood volume, why is it important for the fluid to be isotonic? Answer: Intravenous fluids must be isotonic to prevent the cells from losing or gaining water. If the solution was hypertonic, the cells of the body would lose water, shrink, and possibly be harmed. On the other hand, the introduction of hypotonic fluid would cause the cells to swell and tissues to rupture. Learning Outcome: 3-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 6) Define osmosis and tell in what direction it occurs. Answer: Osmosis is the transfer of water across a semipermeable membrane due to a difference in concentration of impermeant solutes. Water moves from lower to higher solute concentration (or from higher to lower water concentration, or from lower to higher osmolarity, or from lower to higher tonicity). Learning Outcome: 3-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 7) During kidney dialysis, a person's blood is passed through a bath that contains several ions and molecules. The blood is separated from the dialysis fluid by a membrane that allows water, small ions, and small molecules to pass, but does not allow large proteins or blood cells to pass. What should the composition of dialysis fluid be for it to remove urea (a small molecule without changing the blood volume (removing water from the blood)? Answer: For the dialysis fluid to remove urea without removing water, it should not contain urea. Because urea is a small molecule, it will diffuse through the dialysis membrane from an area of high concentration (the blood to an area of low concentration (the dialysis fluid). To prevent an associated osmotic water movement, the dialysis fluid should have an osmotic concentration similar to that of blood plasma, but with higher concentrations of solutes such as bicarbonate ions or glucose. As urea diffuses into the dialysis fluid, glucose and bicarbonate diffuse into the blood; as a result, the solute concentrations remain in balance and no osmotic water movement occurs. Learning Outcome: 3-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 8) A) What are the similarities between facilitated diffusion and active transport? B) What are the differences? Answer: A) Both processes use carrier proteins and exhibit saturation. B) Facilitated diffusion is driven by a concentration gradient, does not consume ATP, and so is "passive," whereas active transport is active, consumes ATP, and moves a substance up its concentration gradient.

9) Tell how a carcinogen can cause cancer, and describe the progression of cancer. Answer: Some carcinogens directly cause rapid cell division and others are mutagens that may mutate a gene that regulates cell growth, differentiation, or division. Cancer begins with increased cell division to produce a cluster of cells called a tumor or neoplasm. These cells change their appearance, lose their response to certain inhibitory signals, and may acquire other mutations. Malignancy occurs as cells from the tumor invade surrounding tissues. Metastasis occurs when these cells enter the circulatory system and start tumors in distant regions of the body. Angiogenesis is the growth of blood vessels into the region of the tumor. Tumors can disrupt normal function by failing to carry out their regular functions, physically interfering with normal tissue, outcompeting normal tissues for nutrients, or overproducing their normal products, such as hormones.

Essay Questions 1) Explain why sunburned skin peels rather than being shed as a powder. Answer: The abundant desmosomes between cells in the superficial layers of the skin hold the cells together as a sheet instead of loosely organized cells. Learning Outcome: 4-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) Indicate an advantage for having simple rather than stratified epithelium lining the gasexchange surfaces of the lungs. Answer: The epithelia are thin, keeping diffusion distance between blood and airspaces to a minimum. This speeds gas exchange across the layers. Learning Outcome: 4-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 3) A biology student accidentally loses the labels of two prepared slides she is studying. One is a slide of an intestine, the other of an esophagus. You volunteer to help her sort them out. How would you decide which slide is which? Answer: Because animal intestine is modified for absorption, you would look for a slide that shows a single layer of epithelium lining the cavity. The cells would be cuboidal or columnar and would probably have microvilli on the surface to increase surface area. Because the esophagus receives undigested food, it would have a stratified epithelium consisting of squamous cells to protect it. Learning Outcome: 4-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) Analysis of a glandular secretion indicates that it contains some DNA, RNA, and membrane components such as phospholipids. What kind of secretion is this and why? Answer: The presence of DNA, RNA, and membrane components suggest that the cell was destroyed during the process of secretion. This is consistent with a holocrine type of secretion. Learning Outcome: 4-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 5) Harriet had liposuction several years ago, but has since gained back all the weight lost through the procedure. She does not understand her weight gain because adipocytes are incapable of dividing. Provide a plausible explanation. Answer: While it is true that adipocytes do not divide and the number of fat cells in peripheral tissues is limited, mesenchymal cells can divide and give rise to cells that differentiate into fat cells. Thus, areolar connective tissue can become adipose tissue in times of nutritional excess. Along with this, the fat cells that remain after surgery can enlarge by storing more triglyceride if the patient continues to overeat. Learning Outcome: 4-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding

6) Which is likely to heal faster, a bone injury or a cartilage injury? Why? Answer: Bone injuries heal relatively quickly because of the good nutrient supply by way of nearby blood vessels and the canaliculi, whereas cartilage is supplied nutrients via diffusion from the outside, a far slower process. In addition, in bone the cellular layer of the surface periosteum takes part in remodeling and repair, whereas chondrocytes do not usually divide in an adult. Learning Outcome: 4-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 7) The four types of tissue membrane consist of an epithelium supported by connective tissue. What do the qualities of each of these two tissues contribute to the function of the membrane? Use one type of tissue membrane as an example. Answer: The connective tissue provides structural support and strength, and its blood supply sustains the membrane. The epithelial tissue gives a smooth surface that protects against friction by being slippery (or keratinized, for cutaneous membrane), it is secretory (mucus, serous fluid, synovial fluid, sweat and skin oil), and it may control the passage of materials (for example, cutaneous membrane reducing water loss from the body). Learning Outcome: 4-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 8) Why is cardiac muscle tissue that has been damaged by injury or disease incapable of regeneration? Answer: Cardiac muscle can't regenerate because it contains no stem cells (satellite cells). Since mature cardiac muscle cells can't divide, there is no basis for tissue regeneration.

Essay Questions 1) Many lipid-soluble medications can be delivered by diffusion across the skin. This process is called transdermal administration and is commonly done by applying patches that contain the medication to the surface of the skin. These patches can be attached anywhere on the skin except the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. Why? Answer: Thick skin slows the rate of diffusion of the medication and thus decreases its effectiveness. In addition, excessive sweat formed on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet would make the patch fall off more readily. Learning Outcome: 5-1 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) In a condition known as sunstroke, the victim appears flushed, the skin is warm and dry, and the body temperature rises dramatically. Explain these observations based on what you know concerning the role of the skin in thermoregulation. Answer: When the body temperature increases, more blood flow is directed to the vessels of the skin. The red cells in the blood give the skin a redder-than-usual color and account for the victim's flushed appearance. The skin is dry because the sweat glands are not producing sweat (avoiding further dehydration). Without evaporation cooling, not enough heat is dissipated from the skin, the skin is warm, and the body temperature rises. This situation represents positive feedback operating in a disease state. Learning Outcome: 5-1 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Why is regional infection or inflammation of the skin usually very painful? Answer: Inflammation of the skin is painful because sensory receptors are abundant in the skin. Changes associated with swelling stimulate the sensory receptors, resulting in a painful sensation. Learning Outcome: 5-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 4) Why is a subcutaneous injection with a hypodermic needle a useful method of administering drugs? Answer: The subcutaneous layer has a limited capillary supply and contains no vital organs; thus, the potential for tissue damage is reduced. Learning Outcome: 5-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding

5) A new mother notices that her 6-month-old infant has a yellow-orange complexion. Fearful that the child may have jaundice, she takes him to her pediatrician. After examining the child and learning about the infant's diet, the pediatrician declares him perfectly healthy and advises the mother to watch the child's diet. What is likely the cause for the change in skin color? Answer: The infant probably has a fondness for vegetables that are high in carotene, such as sweet potatoes, squash, and carrots. It is not uncommon for parents to feed babies what they will eat best. If the child consumes large amounts of carotene, the yellow-orange pigment will be stored in the skin, producing a yellow-orange skin color. This harmless condition is known as carotenosis. Learning Outcome: 5-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 6) Explain how to use the mnemonic ABCD when checking for signs of skin cancer. Answer: When checking for signs of skin cancer one can take a careful look at the appearance of existing moles. The mnemonic ABCD assists with this process because each letter corresponds with a physical characteristic of moles. A stands for asymmetry (healthy moles appear symmetrical); B stands for border (healthy moles have a regular, well defined border); C stands for color (healthy moles have a single color); D stands for diameter (healthy moles have a diameter of less than 5 mm). Learning Outcome: 5-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 7) Explain how skin helps to thermally regulate body temperature. Answer: When body temperature rises, the blood vessels beneath your epidermis are dilated and filled with blood, your skin reddens, and the surface of your skin is warm and wet due the excess heat in the blood. As the moisture evaporates, the excess heat evaporates with it, and your skin cools. If your body temperature then falls below normal, sensible perspiration stops, blood flow to the skin is reduced, and the skin surfaces cools and dries, releasing little heat into the environment. Learning Outcome: 5-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 8) Why is scab formation important in wound healing? Answer: Scabs temporarily restore epidermal integrity, restricting further entry of microorganisms. They also prevent the loss of fluids, maintaining internal fluid balance, and protect the delicate granulation tissue during tissue recovery. Learning Outcome: 5-9 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 9) Vanessa's 80-year-old grandmother sets her thermostat at 26°C (80°F) and wears a sweater on balmy spring days. When asked why, the grandmother says she feels cold. What is a possible cause for her feeling cold? Answer: Most elderly people have poor blood flow to the skin. Thus, their skin becomes cold. This triggers thermal receptors in the skin to signal cold skin. The brain interprets this as a cold body temperature.

Essay Questions 1) During the growth of a long bone, how is the epiphysis forced farther from the shaft? Answer: The chondrocytes of the epiphyseal cartilage enlarge and divide, increasing the thickness of the cartilage. On the shaft, the chondrocytes become ossified, "chasing" the expanding epiphyseal cartilage away from the shaft. Learning Outcome: 6-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) What is the difference between ossification and calcification? Answer: Ossification means specifically the conversion of connective tissue into bone tissue. Calcification means the depositing of calcium salts in any tissue, including bone. Learning Outcome: 6-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 3) Todd is 13 and lives in an urban apartment. He spends most of his time watching TV and eating "junk" food. One afternoon, during recess, he falls on the playground and breaks his leg. Although he appears to be healthy, his leg takes longer to heal than expected. What might be the cause of the longer healing time? Answer: Assuming that there is no other disease process involved, Todd's problem is probably related to his poor diet. Good nutrition is important for promoting the healing process. Insufficient quantities of protein, vitamin C, vitamin A, and vitamin D would cause the normal healing process to occur at a much slower rate. Todd's inactivity may also contribute to his slower rate of healing. Learning Outcome: 6-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) An elderly patient has a broken femur that is healing very slowly. A young resident suggests using a device that will create an electrical field in the area of the fracture to help speed the healing process. Why might this possibly help? Answer: Osteoblasts are attracted to electrical fields produced by bone crystals when they are stressed. This is one of the reasons that trabeculae of bones are organized along stress lines. If the same type of electrical field could be duplicated at the site of the fracture, osteoblasts may be stimulated to migrate to the area and increase the rate of bone production and thus healing of the fracture.

5) Would you expect to see changes in blood levels of the hormones calcitonin and PTH as a result of vitamin D3 deficiency? Explain. Answer: A person deficient in vitamin D3 would not be able to absorb calcium effectively from the digestive tract, leading to a shortage of calcium in the blood. To maintain homeostasis, the decrease in blood calcium would trigger the release of PTH. The PTH, in turn, would stimulate osteoclasts to release enough calcium from the bone to maintain proper calcium levels in the blood. Levels of calcitonin would decrease, because release of this hormone is triggered by high blood calcium levels. Learning Outcome: 6-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 6) What is osteopenia? Name and define two forms of osteopenia. Answer: Osteopenia is a general term for reduced bone mass. Osteoporosis and osteomalacia are forms. Osteoporosis is a condition of reduced bone density, bone weakness, and pain resulting from the loss of mineral from bone with advancing age. Osteomalacia is bone weakness caused by insufficient calcium deposits. It is known as rickets in the young. Learning Outcome: 6-10 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding

After the nose heals, he starts to have sinus headaches and discomfort in the area of his maxillae. What is probably the cause of Frank's discomfort? Answer: Frank probably has a deviated septum as the result of his broken nose. In a deviated septum the cartilaginous portion of the septum is bent where it joins the bone. This condition often blocks the drainage of one or more sinuses with resulting sinus headaches, infections, and sinusitis. Learning Outcome: 7-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) Caroline goes to the doctor complaining of ear pain and fever. The doctor notices that the ear infection is not limited to the middle and inner ear but has traveled posteriorly. Explain where the infection has likely traveled, how it was able to move beyond the inner ear, and what additional symptoms she may exhibit with the infection. Answer: Caroline's inner ear infection has likely spread to the mastoid process causing mastoiditis. The infection traveled through the mastoid air cells which are connected to the middle ear cavity. She may also experience swelling and redness behind the ear at the mastoid process. Learning Outcome: 7-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Consider a disease whereby cilia within the epithelial lining of the paranasal sinuses are destroyed. What would be some of the consequences? Answer: The ciliated epithelium moves mucus back toward the throat, where it is eventually swallowed or expelled coughing. Mucus traps foreign particulates, such as dust or microorganisms, which in the absence of cilia would build up within the paranasal sinuses. Possible consequences may include congestion, pain, sinusitis, and spread of infections into the respiratory tract. Learning Outcome: 7-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

4) What role do the fontanelles play in infant development? Answer: These fibrous connective tissue structures fill in between the bones of the cranium in a newborn infant. As the brain grows, the skull bones can move apart and allow for brain growth without interfering with nervous system development and function. If they are prematurely ossified, brain development is restricted, leading to skull deformity and mental retardation. This condition is called craniostenosis. Learning Outcome: 7-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 5) Joe is 40 years old and 30 pounds overweight. Like many middle-aged men, Joe carries most of this extra weight in his abdomen and jokes with his friends about his "beer gut." During an annual physical, Joe's physician advises him that his spine is developing an abnormal curvature. Why is the curvature of Joe's spine changing, and what is this condition called? Answer: The curvature of the spine is changing as a result of the heavy abdomen pulling on the anterior cavity. This extra weight causes abnormal spinal curvature to compensate for balance. The condition is called lordosis because its effects are prevalent in the lumbar region. Learning Outcome: 7-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 6) Why are ruptured intervertebral discs more common in lumbar vertebrae and dislocations and fractures more common in cervical vertebrae? Answer: The lumbar vertebrae have massive bodies and carry a lot of weight; these factors contribute to the rupturing of an intervertebral disc. The cervical vertebrae are more delicate and have small bodies; these factors increase the possibility of dislocations and fractures in the cervical vertebrae. Learning Outcome: 7-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 7) Billy is injured during a high school football game. His chest is badly bruised and he is experiencing difficulty in breathing. What might the problem be? Answer: Billy has probably broken one or more of his ribs. Movement of the ribs changes the size of the thoracic cavity, which is an important part of breathing. When the ribs are broken, breathing can become difficult (labored) because of pain when the ribs are moved. Learning Outcome: 7-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

Essay Questions 1) Why is it necessary for the bones of the pelvic girdle to be more massive than the bones of the pectoral girdle? Answer: The pelvic girdle must withstand the load of bearing and moving the entire body whereas the pectoral girdle only supports the upper limbs. Learning Outcome: 8-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) What is the distinction between the false pelvis and the true pelvis? Answer: The true pelvis encloses the pelvic cavity and its superior limit is a line that extends from either side of the base of the sacrum, along the arcuate line and pectineal line to the pubic symphysis. The false pelvis consists of the expanded, bladelike portions of each ilium superior to the pelvic brim. Learning Outcome: 8-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 3) Describe the pelvic adaptations to childbearing in the female. Answer: These include: an enlarged pelvic outlet, a broader pubic angle, less curvature on the sacrum and coccyx, wider and more circular pelvic inlet, a relatively broad pelvis that does not extend as far superiorly, and ilia that project farther laterally, but do not extend as far superior to the sacrum. Learning Outcome: 8-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) A runner visits a podiatrist complaining of pain at the bottom of the foot. The podiatrist quickly notes that the patient has flatfeet and decides to take an x-ray of his foot. Explain what it means to have flatfeet. What are some possible consequences of flatfeet and why did the podiatrist take an x-ray? What treatments might the doctor recommend? Answer: The normal arches in the foot are lower than normal because they have lost elasticity or didn't form correctly. When you stand normally the arches provide an elastic connection as the weight is transferred from the calcaneus to the metatarsals. The arches act as shock absorbers but when the arches are flat the load is distributed into the metatarsals causing pain. The patient may have a stress fracture of one of the metatarsals as a result of the stress of running with poor arches. The doctor would recommend wearing shoes with extra arch support. Learning Outcome: 8-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 5) To settle a bet, you need to measure the length of your lower limb (head of femur to distal end of tibia).

Essay Questions 1) Describe the basic sequence of events that occurs as an action potential arrives at the neuromuscular junction and is transmitted to the muscle cell. Answer: The action potential triggers the exocytosis of neurotransmitters stored in vesicles in the axon terminal. This acetylcholine binds to receptors in the motor end plate, increasing the muscle membrane permeability to sodium. Acetylcholinesterase destroys the acetylcholine, ensuring that each nerve action potential produces only a single twitch. The influx of these positive sodium ions triggers an action potential. The action potential spreads in both directions away from the motor end plate across the entire surface of the muscle fiber and into the interior via transverse tubules, triggering a pulse of calcium ion release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which generates a brief small twitch. With additional stimuli, calcium ion builds up and higher tensions are produced. Learning Outcome: 10-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) A hypothetical genetic disease causes the body to produce antibodies that compete with acetylcholine for receptors on the motor end plate. Patients with this disease exhibit varying degrees of muscle weakness in the affected muscles. If you could administer a drug that inhibits acetylcholinesterase or a drug that blocks acetylcholine, which one would you use to alleviate these symptoms? Answer: This is a case of competition between acetylcholine and the antibody. To make the patient's acetylcholine more effective, a drug that inhibits acetylcholinesterase would slow the breakdown of acetylcholine, relieving some of the weakness. An acetylcholine blocker would be worse than doing nothing. Learning Outcome: 10-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Describe a motor unit. How many fibers does a motor unit contain? Answer: A motor unit consists of all of the skeletal muscle fibers controlled by a single motor neuron. They may have as few as 10 fibers (eye muscles) or as many as 10,000 (back muscles). Learning Outcome: 10-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Remembering 4) Thirty minutes after Mary has completed a 25-km race, she begins to notice severe muscle soreness and stiffness in her legs. Her urine is dark colored. She wonders whether she may have damaged her muscles during the race. She visits the ER, and the doctor orders several blood tests. What kind of blood tests can help determine whether muscle damage has occurred? Answer: If muscle damage occurred, the doctor would find enzymes such as creatine kinase and proteins such as myoglobin or troponin in the bloodstream released by injured skeletal muscle cells. The level of these substances correlates with the severity of the injury. Learning Outcome: 10-7 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

5) Megan wants to enter a weight-lifting competition and consults you as to what type of muscle fibers she needs to develop and how she should go about it. What would you suggest to her? Answer: Weight lifting requires anaerobic endurance. Megan would want to develop her fast fibers for short-term maximum strength. She would achieve this by engaging in activities that involve frequent, brief, but intensive workouts, such as with heavy weights to the point of muscle fatigue. The fatigue triggers the production of new myofilament proteins, leading to muscle bulk and strength. Learning Outcome: 10-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 6) Many visceral smooth muscle cells lack motor neuron innervation. How are their contractions coordinated and controlled? Answer: Gap junctions interconnect visceral smooth muscle fibers. An action potential that begins in one will spread to its surrounding neighbors. The action potential can be triggered by stretching, hormones, chemical changes, or stimulation at a myoneural junction on a distant smooth muscle cell.

Essay Questions 1) How do first-, second-, and third-class levers differ? Answer: Levers differ in the position of their fulcrum in relation to the applied force and the load. A first-class lever has the fulcrum positioned between the applied force and the load. Second-class levers have the fulcrum at one end, adjacent to the load, with the applied force at the other end. Third-class levers have the fulcrum at one end, the load at the other, and the applied force in the middle. Learning Outcome: 11-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) Which three functional roles in a movement are used to characterize muscle groups? Give a brief description of each action. Answer: Agonist, antagonist, or synergist. Agonists are chiefly responsible for a movement. Antagonists oppose the agonists, keeping the movements smooth. Synergists provide additional force or stabilize the origin. Learning Outcome: 11-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 3) Jeff is interested in toning his abdomen. What muscles would you tell Jeff to exercise to accomplish his goal? What movements would best exercise these muscles? Answer: Jeff should do exercises that flex and twist the trunk. The muscles he should target are the rectus abdominis muscles, and the external and internal oblique muscles. Sit-ups and twisting movements will stimulate these muscles. If he places a weight on his chest as he does sit-ups, it will produce faster results because the rectus abdominis muscle would be working against a greater load.

The virus is normally introduced by an animal bite that breaks the surface of the skin. Since the virus is not motile, how does it travel to the central nervous system? Answer: When the skin is broken by an animal bite some cutaneous receptors are physically damaged. It is through these damaged axons that the virus gains entrance to the neuron. Retrograde axoplasmic transport carries the virus to the central nervous system, where it can reproduce and spread. Learning Outcome: 12-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) The myelination of central and peripheral axons occurs rapidly through the first few years of life. How can this developmental process explain the improved motor abilities of infants and toddlers? Answer: Without full myelination, information about limb movement and body position moves slowly to the CNS, and motor commands move slowly and erratically to the muscles. By the time the brain is aware of movement or position and can issue a motor command, the limb has already moved. When the motor command reaches the skeletal muscle, the response is no longer appropriate. As the neurons become fully myelinated, information processing speeds up, so we observe improved balance, coordination, and movement. Learning Outcome: 12-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding

3) A drug that blocks ATP production is introduced into an isolated axon preparation. The axon is then repeatedly stimulated, and recordings are made of the response. What effects would you expect to observe? Answer: Initially, the recording would show normal action potentials in response to the repetitive stimulation. After 50,000 to 100,000 action potentials have passed, the recording would start to indicate less responsiveness from the axon; ultimately, the axon would fail to respond. Because very few ions actually move across the membrane during an action potential, axons can carry thousands of action potentials before the concentrations of sodium and potassium ions must be reestablished by the sodium-potassium pump. Without ATP production, the supply of ATP would be consumed, the pump would shut down, and so the cell could not restore the sodium and potassium ion gradients. The resulting slow depolarization would inactivate voltage-gated sodium channels, leading to a persistent absolute refractory state. The loss of the electrochemical gradients denies the axons their means of generating an action potential and transmission would stop. Learning Outcome: 12-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

3) What is a reflex arc? What components must be present to qualify? Answer: A reflex arc is the wiring pattern of neurons that underlie a particular reflex. A reflex arc consists of three elements at the minimum: (1) a sensory receptor and neuron to carry afferent information to the CNS; (2) an excitatory synapse on a motor neuron; (3) the motor neuron to generate an action potential and conduct the impulse to an effector such as a skeletal muscle motor unit. Learning Outcome: 13-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) Sometimes, when it is difficult to initiate a knee-jerk reflex by tapping the patellar tendon, a patient will be asked to voluntarily make a fist. Then the reflex will be easily evoked. What does this illustrate about the relation between voluntary and involuntary reflex movement? Answer: Descending motor tracts that excite the motor neurons that activate forearm and hand muscles also send excitatory impulses to motor neurons lower down the spinal cord. These EPSPs spatially summate with the excitatory inputs from the muscle spindles to quadriceps motor neurons, bringing the quadriceps neurons to threshold, and thus generate a brisk "kneejerk" response.

Essay Questions 1) Why is injury to the medulla oblongata frequently fatal? Answer: This region of the brain contains the centers for regulating the cardiovascular system and initiating respiration, both vital to life. In addition, most sensory and motor tracts pass through the medulla oblongata between higher and lower centers of the nervous system. Learning Outcome: 14-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) A patient develops a clot that blocks the blood supply to the right cerebral hemisphere. What signs and symptoms would you expect as a result of this blockage? Answer: Because the right primary motor cortex controls the muscles of the left side of the body, you would expect left-sided paralysis whose extent and severity will depend on the extent of brain injury. Similarly, the patient will experience somatic sensory loss on the left side of the body. Higher-order functions such as memory, planning, spatial orientation, and emotional control could be damaged but many language skills would be spared. Learning Outcome: 14-9 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Bell's palsy is caused by inflammation of the facial nerve (VII). What signs and symptoms would you expect in this condition? Is it permanent?

Outline the pathway this sensation will travel to reach his brain being specific about the structures along the way. Answer: When Jake steps on a piece of ice it will activate a thermoreceptor which are free nerve endings in the dermis. This sensation will travel up the axon of a first-order neuron entering the CNS through the dorsal root. The first-order neuron will synapse with a second-order (interneuron) in the posterior gray horn. The second-order axons will enter the lateral spinothalamic tract on the opposite side of the spinal cord and ascend to the thalamus. At the thalamus the second-order neuron will synapse with a third-order neuron which will end at the primary sensory cortex on the left side of the brain.

3) What are differences and similarities between "crude" touch and "fine" touch sensations? Answer: Crude touch refers to sensations from stimulation of tactile receptors of low sensitivity with large receptive fields. In contrast, fine touch refers to tactile receptors of high sensitivity with small receptive fields. Crude touch ascends in the anterior spinothalamic pathway whereas fine touch ascends in the posterior column pathway. The spinothalamic pathway crosses the neural axis in the spinal cord but the posterior column pathway crosses in the medulla oblongata. Both ultimately project to the somatosensory cortex on the contralateral side of the stimulus in the same region of cortex. Learning Outcome: 15-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) How can an understanding of the neurotransmitters important in the function of the basal nuclei contribute to an understanding the underlying cause for Parkinson's disease? Answer: Two distinct populations of neurons exist: one that stimulates neurons by releasing acetylcholine, and another that inhibits neurons through the release of gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA). Under normal conditions, the excitatory interneurons are kept inactive, and the tracts leaving the basal nuclei have an inhibitory effect on upper motor neurons. In Parkinson's disease, the excitatory neurons become more active, leading to problems with the voluntary control of movement. Treatment directed at increasing the supply of GABA is being investigated actively. Learning Outcome: 15-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

Essay Questions 1) List the different types of adrenergic receptors, the responses they produce, and by what mechanisms. Answer: There are two types of alpha receptors and two types of beta receptors. The alpha-1 receptor produces excitation or stimulation of metabolism. It works by activation of an enzyme and/or by release of calcium ion from internal stores. The alpha-2 receptor is inhibitory on its target cell by reducing the level of cAMP. Beta-1 receptors are stimulating and/or lead to increased energy consumption. They activate cellular enzymes. Beta-2 receptors inhibit activity or produce relaxation in smooth muscle cells. They operate through enzyme activation. Learning Outcome: 16-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) Mr. Martin is suffering from a condition known as ventricular tachycardia, in which his heart beats too quickly. Would an alpha-blocker or a beta-blocker help alleviate his problem? Why? Answer: You would want to use a beta-blocker, because the stimulation of beta-1 receptors increases heart rate. By blocking these receptors, parasympathetic influence will predominate and the heart will slow down. Learning Outcome: 16-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) What effect would cutting the vagus nerve branch that innervates the stomach have on gastric function? Answer: The vagus nerve carries parasympathetic preganglionic fibers to many organs within the ventral cavity, including the digestive organs. It stimulates gastric motility and secretion of acid and enzymes. Removing the vagus innervation will eliminate parasympathetic stimulation, leaving only sympathetic innervation, which is inhibitory. This procedure will thus greatly reduce gastric activity. Hormonal stimulation will remain but higher centers will no longer influence secretion of gastric juice. Learning Outcome: 16-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) Explain what dual innervation means with regard to the autonomic nervous system. Using the cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive systems as examples, explain how dual innervation regulates the function of each system. Answer: Dual innervation means that both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems control some areas of the body. In general, they have opposing actions. In the cardiovascular system, sympathetic stimulation increases heart rate and contractility while parasympathetic stimulation decreases heart rate. In the respiratory system, sympathetic stimulation dilates the airways while parasympathetic stimulation constricts the airways. In the digestive system, sympathetic stimulation slows down motility and release of secretions while parasympathetic stimulation increases motility and release of secretions.

In this type of glaucoma, pigment granules from the iris break off into the aqueous humor. Describe the steps of aqueous humor formation, circulation, and drainage and how glaucoma may develop. Answer: The epithelial cells of the ciliary processes of the ciliary body produce aqueous humor. It is secreted into the posterior chamber then flows into the anterior chamber through the pupil. After filtering through connective tissues at the base of the iris it enters the scleral venous sinus into veins in the sclera. If pigment pieces block the scleral venous sinus canal the fluid that is continuously produced cannot drain at the same rate and intraocular pressure will increase causing glaucoma.

4) What six basic steps are involved in the process of hearing? Answer: (1) Sound waves arrive at the tympanic membrane. (2) Movement of the tympanic membrane causes displacement of the auditory ossicles. (3) Movement of the stapes at the oval window establishes pressure waves in the perilymph of the vestibular duct. (4) The pressure waves distort the basilar membrane on their way to the round window of the tympanic duct. (5) Vibration of the basilar membrane causes vibration of hair cells and bending of stereocilia against the tectorial membrane. (6) Information about the region and intensity of stimulation is relayed to the brain stem over the cochlear branch of N VIII. Learning Outcome: 17-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 5) Each of the special senses can be expected to decline in some way over time. Describe some of the changes commonly seen in the function of the special senses with age. Answer: Olfactory receptors are reduced in number and olfactory glands decline in activity. Both changes reduce olfactory acuity. Gustatory sense declines with a decline in the number of taste buds and taste receptors. Vision suffers from a loss of retinal function, clouding of lens and cornea, and loss of lens elasticity, leading to senile hyperopia (presbyopia). Hearing declines due to accumulation of cerumen, scarring of the tympanum, arthritis of the ossicular chain, and loss of proximal hair cells in the organ of Corti, leading to high-tone deafness. Balance declines due to nerve problems, fluid problems, and vascular problems, leading to faulty or delayed vestibular information. That decline coupled with a sluggish and weak motor response increases the risk of falls and consequent trauma. Learning Outcome: 17-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 6) How would blockage of the auditory (Eustachian) tube at its exit in the nasopharynx by lymphatic tissue ("adenoids") affect ear function and health? Answer: Blockage of the auditory tube leads to pain because pressure cannot equilibrate between the middle ear and the atmosphere. Also, fluid can accumulate (otitis media) in the middle ear, which is also painful and potentially infective. Untreated, adenoids can lead to scarring of the tympanum and some loss of hearing.

Essay Questions 1) Communication between cells is key to organism-level regulation of the internal environment to maintain health, that is, nearly constant internal conditions (homeostasis). Outline and compare the intercellular communication pathways that function to provide homeostasis. Answer: Intercellular communication occurs largely through the nervous system and the endocrine system. In general, the nervous system performs short-term "crisis management," whereas the endocrine system regulates longer-term, ongoing metabolic processes. Ideally, the nervous system communicates by an impulse over an axon to a neuron or some other effector. This is a very fast and spatially specific process. In contrast, the endocrine system relies on blindly sending out chemical messages to the whole body through the blood and interstitial fluid. This process is slow, and relies on the response of a different target cell. Learning Outcome: 18-1 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) You see a patient with a goiter. You run some tests and find the patient is iodine deficient. Explain how iodine is used in the production of thyroid hormones. Also, explain how a goiter might form as a result of iodine deficiency. Be sure to include the role of TSH in your response. Answer: Iodine atoms are attached to tyrosine molecules. Tyrosine molecules join together forming thyroid hormones as triiodothyronine (with 3 iodine atoms) or thyroxine (with 4 iodine atoms). If the patient is iodine deficient then he cannot produce adequate levels of thyroid hormones and negative feedback to the anterior pituitary does not occur. When the body is deficient in thyroid hormone the anterior pituitary will produce excess TSH trying to stimulate the thyroid gland. Excess TSH will cause the gland to hypertrophy and form a goiter. Learning Outcome: 18-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) When patients who are receiving glucocorticoid therapy (for example, with prednisone need to stop taking it, the doctor will prescribe a series of doses of tapering size to gradually lower the dose rather than suddenly stop it. Explain this dosage strategy in terms of the negative feedback control of cortisol secretion. Answer: Glucocorticoids inhibit the production of corticotrophin-releasing hormone by the hypothalamus and ACTH by the anterior pituitary. High doses of prednisone will mean that levels of ACTH in the patient have been quite low, and so the zona fasciculate of the adrenal cortex will have not been stimulated for a while and can't do much synthesis. By slowly reducing the prednisone, it gives the patient's own ability to make cortisol a chance to recover and thus prevents collapse of blood pressure and other serious effects of suddenly withholding the corticosteroid.

4) What does it mean to say that the pancreas is both an endocrine and an exocrine organ? Answer: The pancreas contains both exocrine and endocrine cells. Cells of the endocrine pancreas form clusters called pancreatic islets (islets of Langerhans) and the exocrine cells cluster in structures called pancreatic acini. The endocrine cells secrete at their basal surfaces into the interstitial space, exactly opposite to the exocrine gland cells, which secrete fluid and digestive enzymes out of their apical surfaces into tiny ducts. The pancreatic islets secrete the hormones glucagon, insulin, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide, which diffuse into nearby capillaries and then reach cells throughout the body via the circulation. The pancreatic exocrine secretions enter the intestine during digestion and play a key role in both protecting the epithelium and dissolving food particles into their constituent building blocks. Learning Outcome: 18-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 5) Describe the three phases of the general adaptation syndrome (GAS) that constitute the body's response to stress. Which endocrine secretions play dominant roles in the alarm and resistance phases? Answer: The three phases are alarm, resistance, and exhaustion. During the alarm phase, energy reserves are mobilized and the body prepares itself with "fight or flight" responses. During the resistance phase, glucocorticoids are released to (1) mobilize lipid and protein reserves, (2) conserve glucose for neural tissue, (3) elevate and stabilize blood glucose concentrations, (4) conserve salts and water, and (5) lose K+ and H+. During the exhaustion phase, homeostatic regulation breaks down. Epinephrine plays a dominant role in the alarm phase and glucocorticoids are dominant in the resistance phase.

Essay Questions 1) Why do people with advanced kidney disease commonly become anemic? Answer: For three reasons: (1) Damaged kidneys produce less erythropoietin and so there is less stimulation of the marrow to produce RBCs. (2) Erythropoietin is more easily lost into the urine by leaky kidneys. (3) Finally, during dialysis treatment, the patient's erythropoietin is washed away. Treatment for kidney patients today includes injections of synthetic erythropoietin. Learning Outcome: 19-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) How does Rhogam prevent erythroblastosis fetalis (HDN, hemolytic disease of the newborn)? Answer: If a mother who is Rh negative carries a fetus who is Rh positive, she will make antibodies against its Rh positive RBCs after being exposed to the infant's blood during labor and delivery. By giving a dose of anti-Rh antibody (Rhogam) just before or after delivery, the fetal red cells will be agglutinated and removed from the mother's circulation before her immune system will have time to make anti-Rh antibodies that would endanger her next Rh-positive offspring.

Why? Answer: Calcium channel blockers inhibit the movement of calcium ions from the interstitial fluid into cardiac and smooth muscle cells. This would cause a decrease in heart rate, stroke volume, and cardiac output. These in turn would lower blood pressure. In addition, the calcium channel blockers would also inhibit contraction of the smooth muscle in the wall of blood vessels, causing them to get wider and thus also lower blood pressure. Because both heart and smooth muscle cells are inhibited by verapamil, its effects on blood pressure are particularly potent. Learning Outcome: 20-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) A patient's ECG recording shows a very long P-R interval. What is the cause of this abnormal wave pattern? Answer: The P wave marks the time of atrial depolarization and the QRS complex signals ventricular depolarization. Between those two events the AV node was excited and the action potential was spread through the conducting tissue to the ventricular myocardium. A prolonged P-R interval signifies an unusually slow conduction through the AV node and conducting system, possibly due to insufficient blood flow (ischemia).

How does this work? What other controls on blood flow operate? Answer: When a skeletal muscle becomes more active, it consumes oxygen and nutrients and releases carbon dioxide, waste products, and potassium ions. One effect of reduced oxygen is to cause the smooth muscle cells that block capillary blood flow, the precapillary sphincters, to relax. As these relax, the capillaries open and plasma and red cells can perfuse the active tissue. After recovery from exercise is complete, gases and metabolites return to normal and blood flow returns to its resting value. This local mechanism works along with central control of vasodilation by the sympathetic vasodilator fibers that appear to utilize nitric oxide (NO) as the transmitter substance. Learning Outcome: 21-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) If a wound overwhelms the clotting mechanism and leads to serious hemorrhage and drop in blood pressure, what compensations does the body have to maintain cardiac output? Answer: Acutely, the autonomic nervous system undergoes sympathetic activation. Epinephrine from the adrenal medulla supports the neural mechanisms. Heart rate and contractility are increased in trying to maintain cardiac output. Vasoconstriction increases peripheral resistance, raising blood pressure and redirecting flow to vital internal organs. Simultaneously, venoconstriction occurs, increasing venous return and forcing extra blood from the venous to the arterial side of the circulation. The endocrine system releases ADH, angiotensin II, and aldosterone, which act together to raise blood volume by reducing fluid loss at the kidney.

3) Compare the hearts of a trained athlete and a nonathlete. Answer: The athlete's heart will be larger and will have a higher resting stroke volume and a lower resting heart rate. During maximum activity, stroke volume will be much greater for the athlete, and cardiac output of the athlete may approach 30 liters/minute compared to 20 liters/minute of the nonathlete. Maximum heart rates will be about the same despite the much larger cardiac output, due to the larger stroke volume. Learning Outcome: 21-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) Your friend tells you that her baby was dubbed a "blue baby" by hospital staff and that it was born with a "hole in its heart". Provide an explanation to your friend of this phenomenon. Answer: A fetus has reduced need for blood flow to the lungs, since the lungs are not yet functional in terms of gas exchange. A fetal modification called foramen ovale provides a direct connection between the right and left atria, thereby allowing blood to more directly enter the systemic circuit. If this bypass persists after birth, there is reduced systemic blood flow which results in cyanosis. Learning Outcome: 21-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

3) List and briefly describe the four general properties of adaptive immunity. Answer: (1) Specificity: The immune response is triggered by a specific antigen and defends against only that antigen. (2) Versatility: The immune system can differentiate among hundreds of millions of antigens that it might encounter during a normal lifetime. (3) Memory: The immune response following the second exposure to a particular antigen is stronger and lasts longer than before. (4) Tolerance: Some antigens, such as those on your own cells, do not elicit an immune response. Learning Outcome: 22-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 4) You are a researcher interested in studying the cytoskeleton. How can you use antibodies to locate actin- and tubulin-containing structures? Answer: Since those cytoskeletal components are proteins, it is possible to immunize an animal with foreign proteins isolated from tissues. For example, a rabbit could be immunized with the actin and tubulin purified from tissues of the chicken, a very distant relative of the rabbit. Those antibodies could be purified from the rabbit's blood and then linked to fluorescent tags. When the cells are exposed to the anti-actin and anti-tubulin antibodies, they will stick to those molecules in the cell. If different colored dyes were used to tag the antibodies, it would be possible to localize those cytoskeletal proteins in the same cell. Learning Outcome: 22-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

What is the basis of this instruction and what is the risk if it is ignored? Answer: When breathing underwater with scuba equipment, gas is supplied by the tank at higher than atmospheric pressure to overcome the extra pressure imposed by the overlying water. According to Boyle's Law, during ascent when the pressure falls, the volume of gas contained in the lungs will expand. If not permitted to escape through the mouth, nitrogen will come out of solution and form gas bubbles in the joint as well as in the blood stream. A massive air embolism in the pulmonary arteries could be suddenly fatal. Learning Outcome: 23-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

Essay Questions 1) Describe the three phases of gastric regulation. Be sure to include the appropriate local, neural and hormonal responses for each phase. Answer: The first phase is the cephalic phase. It begins with the thoughts, sight, or smell of food. This phase is directed by the CNS and increases vagus nerve stimulation of the submucosal neural plexus. This increases mucus, acid and gastrin production. The next phase, the gastric phase, begins when food enters the stomach and both stretch receptors and chemoreceptors are stimulated. A local response increases histamine release. The neural response increases activity of the myenteric and submucosal neural plexus to increase motility and secretions. The hormonal response is mediated by the release of gastrin to increase motility and secretions. The final phase, the intestinal phase, begins as chyme enters the duodenum. Distension of the duodenum stimulates stretch receptors to begin the enterogastric reflex which limits the amount of chyme that enters the duodenum. The hormonal response includes release of CCK, GIP and secretin to increase bile release and pancreatic juice release for intestinal digestion and to limit gastrin release. Learning Outcome: 24-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) What role do hormones play in hunger and satiety? Answer: Levels of ghrelin, a hormone produced by P/D1 cells, lining the fundic region of the stomach, rise before meals to initiate hunger and decline shortly after eating to curb appetite. Ghrelin is also antagonistic to leptin, a fat-tissue-derived hormone that induces satiety. Another hormone from the stomach and small intestine, obestatin, decreases appetite. The same gene encodes both ghrelin and obestatin. Learning Outcome: 24-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Leon has gallstones. His doctor puts him on a diet low in fat. Why? Answer: The gallbladder functions to concentrate and store bile produced by the liver. In this capacity, the gallbladder reabsorbs water from the bile. Since bile salts are produced from cholesterol, these salts will be precipitated as cholesterol-like gallstones if too much water is reabsorbed. Whenever bile is released by the gallbladder in response to the presence of fats in the duodenum, the smooth muscle in the wall of the gallbladder must contract. This generates severe pain if the cystic duct or common bile duct is blocked by kidney stones. To minimize or prevent this pain Leon's doctor prescribes a low-fat diet. Thus there is less fat in the diet, less contraction of the gallbladder, and less pain. Learning Outcome: 24-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

4) Outline the usual pathway for digestion and absorption of triglycerides (fats). Answer: Fats are not soluble in water and so need special handling. The liver produces bile for fat digestion. Bile causes fat molecules to break up into tiny droplets called micelles. Pancreatic lipase attaches to these micelles and hydrolyses the triglycerides, freeing fatty acids, monoglycerides, and glycerol. The glycerol enters the columnar epithelial cells by facilitated diffusion and the fatty acids enter by simple diffusion because of their lipid nature. Within the epithelial cell glycerol or monoglycerides are reconnected to fatty acids. These fat molecules form tiny droplets within the Golgi and pass into the lamina propria. Here they enter lacteals, which are lymphatics, eventually being carried to the venous circulation at the thoracic duct. Learning Outcome: 24-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 5) Imagine eating a soda cracker, which is basically starch, fat, protein, and salt. How would each of these components be digested? Where within the digestive system would they be digested? Are any accessory organs involved? Answer: Digestion begins in the oral cavity. Food triggers saliva from the parotid salivary glands, rich in amylase, and from the submandibular salivary glands, rich in mucus. The tongue and teeth cooperate to mix all together and form a bolus. Digestion of fats and starch begins due to lingual lipase and salivary amylase. Swallowing reflexes send it to the stomach. Acid and pepsin mix with the bolus. Peptides form from the wheat proteins due to action of pepsin. It then travels into the small intestine, where pancreatic lipase and amylase complete fat and starch digestion. Pancreatic proteinases and peptidases reduce peptides to amino acids. These are absorbed by cotransport. Maltose from starch is split into glucose molecules, which are absorbed by cotransport. The salt in the cracker is absorbed during cotransport. Fatty acids diffuse into the epithelial cells because of their lipid character. Learning Outcome: 24-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

What organs can it occur in? What precursors can be used? What is the outcome? Answer: Gluconeogenesis is the synthesis of glucose from a noncarbohydrate precursor. It occurs because cells cannot use acetyl-CoA to make glucose. Gluconeogenesis can take place in the liver and in skeletal muscles. Lactate, glycerol and some amino acids can be precursors for gluconeogenesis but fatty acids and other amino acids that produce acetyl-CoA cannot. The end result is an increase in the production of glucose that can be used or stored as glycogen. Learning Outcome: 25-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) The drug colestipol binds bile salts in the intestine, forming complexes that cannot be absorbed. How would this drug affect cholesterol levels in blood? Answer: Colestipol would lead to a decrease in the plasma levels of cholesterol. Since the bile salts are bound they are not available for reabsorption in the large intestine and recycling to cholesterol in the liver and so will be lost in the feces. This deprives the body of a major source of cholesterol and the loss will need to be made up by increased liver synthesis. Overall, a drop in circulating cholesterol will result.

3) What happens during protein catabolism? How is this related to nitrogen balance? Answer: Protein catabolism is the breakdown of proteins by cellular proteases and peptidases into constituent amino acids. These amino acids can be either reused for protein synthesis (anabolism) or broken down via deamination and used to make glucose or directly used in the citric acid cycle to make ATP. Deamination removes the nitrogen group from the amino acid, which is then excreted as urea. This results in a negative nitrogen balance. Learning Outcome: 25-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 4) Ketosis develops in the postabsorptive state. What is ketosis? Why does it develop? What metabolic effects does it have? Answer: Ketosis is a high concentration of ketone bodies in body fluids. Ketone bodies are metabolites with the ketone group that form during starvation states. When glucose levels are low, the liver turns to fats and amino acids to provide energy. This produces much acetyl-CoA, which leads to production of ketone bodies. Because most ketone bodies are acidic, they lower the pH of body fluids, bringing on acidosis. If severe, the ketosis and acidosis can injure the CNS, heart, and other organs. In extreme cases, death can result. Learning Outcome: 25-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 5) Briefly outline the role of the liver in glucose metabolism. Answer: During the absorptive state, under insulin control, the liver takes in glucose and converts it to glycogen, the storage form. In the postabsorptive state, the liver releases glucose into the circulation to maintain homeostasis. The glucose comes from the glycogenolysis or gluconeogenesis. An example of gluconeogenesis is when the liver converts lactate released from skeletal muscle into glucose. Epinephrine, growth hormone, glucagon, glucocorticoids, and other hormones trigger glucose release. Learning Outcome: 25-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 6) List and briefly describe the body's five metabolic components. Answer: The body has five metabolic components: the liver, adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, neural tissue, and other peripheral tissues. The liver is the focal point for metabolic regulation and control. Adipose tissue stores lipids, primarily in the form of triglycerides. Skeletal muscle contains substantial glycogen reserves, and the contractile proteins can be degraded and the amino acids used as an energy source. Neural tissue does not contain energy reserves; glucose must be supplied to it for energy. Other peripheral tissues are able to metabolize glucose, fatty acids, or other substrates under the direction of the endocrine system. Learning Outcome: 25-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

Essay Questions 1) List each organ of the urinary system and concisely describe its function. Answer: Consisting of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra, the urinary system has three primary functions: (1) excretion, the removal of organic waste products from body fluids, (2) elimination, the discharge of these waste products into the environment, and (3) homeostatic regulation of the volume and solute concentration of blood plasma. The excretory and homeostatic regulation functions of the urinary system are performed by the two kidneys that produce urine, a fluid containing water, ions, and small soluble compounds. Urine leaving the kidneys flows along paired tubes called ureters to the urinary bladder, a muscular sac for temporary storage of urine. On being forced out of the urinary bladder, urine passes through the urethra to the exterior. The urinary bladder and the urethra are responsible for the elimination of urine, a process called urination or micturition. Learning Outcome: 26-1 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) In glomerulonephritis, the normal filtration barrier is damaged and becomes far more permeable to plasma proteins, such as albumin along with other solutes. How would that affect glomerular filtration? Answer: GFR would go up for two reasons. (1) The leakage of protein into the capsular filtrate will lower the effectiveness of BCOP and thus raise the net filtration pressure. (2) Filtration will increase also because of the increased leakiness of the glomerulus to water, ions, and other solutes. A distinct proteinuria will appear, and the loss of protein will lower BCOP, making matters worse and promoting edema formation in the peripheral tissues. Learning Outcome: 26-4 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) What is the creatinine clearance test? How can it be used to estimate GFR? How accurate is it? Answer: This test relies on measuring total creatinine excreted in the urine in 24 hours and measuring the plasma concentration of creatinine. Since essentially none of the filtered load is returned to bloodstream, the amount in the urine relates directly to the volume of blood that filtered in the glomeruli. GFR can be calculated by dividing creatinine excretion rate (mg/hr) by plasma concentration of creatinine (g/dL) to get the GFR in dL/hour, from which the per-minute rate is calculated by dividing by 60. The test is not entirely accurate because up to 15 percent of the excreted creatinine enters the urine by tubular secretion. Learning Outcome: 26-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

4) Sarah has been suffering from a stomach virus. As a result, she is dehydrated and her plasma ADH and aldosterone levels are elevated. Explain how each of these hormones independently affects the nephron including the specific location(s) of the nephron affected. Finally, state how the combined effects of these two hormones will alter urine concentration and volume. Answer: ADH will increase the number of aquaporins inserted into the apical plasma membrane of the distal convoluted tubule and collecting ducts. The presence of aquaporins will allow water to be reabsorbed by the osmotic gradient in this portion of the nephron to match the rising intramedullary concentration. Thus, the tubule fluid becomes very concentrated as water is removed. Aldosterone increases sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct. When sodium is reabsorbed water will follow to keep the osmotic gradient equal. Together, ADH and aldosterone yield significant water reabsorption in the late distal convoluted tubule and collecting ducts resulting in a small volume of highly concentrated urine.

Fluid balance means that the total quantity of body water remains almost constant and that the distribution between the ICF and ECF are normal. Electrolyte balance implies the same thing for ions. Acid-base balance means that the pH of the ECF is maintained in the range of 7.35 to 7.45, and that gains or losses of hydrogen ion as a consequence of metabolism are followed by equivalent losses or gains so as to maintain constant buffer reserves. Learning Outcome: 27-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) Fred has chronic emphysema. Blood tests show that his pH is low but almost normal but his bicarbonate levels are elevated significantly. How can this be? What would urinalysis show? Answer: Emphysema limits alveolar ventilation, leading to increased carbon dioxide in Fred's body. Since Fred's condition is chronic (long term) his body has compensated for the excess carbonic acid (the result of hypercapnia due to poor ventilation) by increasing the amount of bicarbonate to match the elevated level of hydrogen ion. This compensation for respiratory acidosis was accomplished by the kidney's secretion of hydrogen ion both in the PCT and DCT and the retention of bicarbonate from the elevated carbonic acid. Urinalysis would indicate a very low pH and high levels of ammonia, produced by the distal tubule to absorb the secreted hydrogen ion. Learning Outcome: 27-6 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 3) Why does potassium concentration rise in patients with acidosis? What is this called? What effects does it have? Answer: When pH is low, hydrogen ion levels in the blood are high and also in the interstitial and peritubular fluid. Hydrogen ion competes with potassium ion for the sodium countercurrent exchanger in the tubules. As hydrogen ion secretion rises (which compensates for the acidosis), potassium is retained and hyperkalemia develops. If severe enough, muscle cramps and cardiac arrhythmias result.

Essay Questions 1) How are male and female reproductive systems functionally different? Answer: In males, the gonads (testes) secrete androgens and produce hundreds of millions of gametes (sperm) each day. The sperm are mixed with secretions, forming semen, and are expelled from the body during ejaculation into the female. In females, the gonads (ovaries) secrete estrogen and progesterone and release a single ovum (gamete) every month. The vagina receives the penis during sexual intercourse and the ejaculate is deposited near the external os of the uterus. If the ovum is fertilized and implants in the endometrium, the female's body nourishes the development of the embryo and fetus until birth. Learning Outcome: 28-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 2) Explain how estrogen and progesterone control each phase of the uterine cycle. Answer: At the beginning of the 28 day cycle, both estrogen and progesterone levels are very low. The low levels of these hormones causes the menstrual phase because not enough progesterone is available to maintain the functional layer of the endometrium so it is sloughed off. As the ovarian follicle grows the granulosa cells produce increasing amounts of estrogen. The rising estrogen concentration causes the proliferative phase of the uterine cycle to begin and continue through ovulation. When the oocyte is ovulated the corpus luteum forms from the follicle and begins producing progesterone. The rising progesterone stimulates the secretory phase of the uterine cycle. This phase continues until the oocyte is fertilized or if it is not fertilized then the levels of progesterone fall and the menstrual phase begins again. Learning Outcome: 28-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 3) Imagine that a seven-year-old girl develops a hormone-secreting ovarian tumor derived from granulosa cells. What signs of the disease would you expect? Answer: Granulosa cells produce estrogen, so a tumor involving these cells would lead to highly elevated levels of estrogen. Estrogen would set in motion the development of secondary sex characteristics, such as breast enlargement, deposition of fat in characteristic places, development of axillary and pubic hair and apocrine sweat glands, along with accelerated skeletal growth.

4) The release of FSH and LH from gonadotropes in the adenohypophysis is separately controlled by the same hypothalamic releasing hormone, GnRH. How is it possible to organize their secretion during the menstrual cycle? Answer: In females, the GnRH pulse frequency and amplitude (amount secreted per pulse change throughout the course of the ovarian cycle. Consider changes in pulse frequency, as their effects are both dramatic and reasonably well understood. Changes in GnRH pulse frequency are controlled primarily by circulating levels of estrogens and progestins. Estrogens increase the GnRH pulse frequency, and progestins decrease it. The endocrine cells of the adenohypophysis respond as if each group of endocrine cells is monitoring different frequencies. As a result, each group of cells is sensitive to some GnRH pulse frequencies and insensitive to others. For example, consider the gonadotropes, the cells responsible for FSH and LH production. At one pulse frequency, the gonadotropes respond preferentially and secrete FSH, whereas at another frequency, LH is the primary hormone released. FSH and LH production also occurs in pulses that follow the rhythm of GnRH pulses. If GnRH is absent or is supplied at a constant rate (without pulses), FSH and LH secretion will stop in a matter of hours. Learning Outcome: 28-5 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying

Answer: The first sperm to penetrate the oocyte triggers a sequence of changes that block entry by other sperm, or polyspermia. Polyspermy is prevented by depolarization of the egg membrane by opening of sodium channels and by the cortical reaction triggered by the release of calcium ion from smooth ER within the oocyte. The calcium ion stimulates the vesicles to undergo exocytosis. Their contents cause the zona pellucida to harden, creating a barrier against further sperm penetration. Learning Outcome: 29-2 Bloom's Taxonomy: Understanding 2) Outline the events that take place between exposure of the oocyte to spermatozoa and formation of the first blastomere pair. Answer: Powerful acrosomal hydrolases released from the sperm head create openings between adherent granulosa cells (the corona radiata) and penetrate the zona pellucida. A solitary sperm penetrates to the oocyte membrane to which it fuses, sending its nucleus into the oocyte. This is the moment of fertilization. This triggers maturation of the haploid maternal pronucleus, followed by development of the male pronucleus. These then fuse in the act of amphimixis, the true combining of maternal and paternal haploid chromosome sets to form a unique diploid set of 46 chromosomes. Spindle fibers organize the chromosomes on the metaphase plate after the nuclear envelopes break down. After mitosis is complete, cytokinesis takes place, dividing the original zygote into two daughter cells or pair of blastomeres. This takes more than 30 hours to complete.

3) List and briefly characterize the three trimesters of gestation. Answer: For convenience, we think of the gestation period as consisting of three integrated trimesters, each lasting 3 months in duration: (1) The first trimester is the period of embryological and early fetal development. During this period, the rudiments of all the major organ systems appear. (2) The second trimester is dominated by the development of organs and organ systems, a process that nears completion by the end of the sixth month. During this period, body shape and proportions change; by the end of this trimester, the fetus looks distinctively human. (3) The third trimester is characterized by rapid fetal growth and deposition of adipose tissue. Early in the third trimester, most of the fetus's major organ systems become fully functional. Learning Outcome: 29-3 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying 4) A new mother tells you that when she nurses her baby, she feels as if she is having menstrual cramps. How would you explain this phenomenon? Answer: During nursing, the mechanical stimulus of suckling triggers a neural reflex that leads to the release of oxytocin from the posterior pituitary. Oxytocin enters the bloodstream and stimulates contractile cells that surround the secretory cells in the mammary glands to contract and move milk into the lactiferous sinuses—the milk let-down reflex. Oxytocin also stimulates smooth muscle cells of the myometrium, so the rise in oxytocin sometimes leads to uterine contractions as well, producing a feeling similar to menstrual cramping. The uterine contractions help stem uterine bleeding. Learning Outcome: 29-8 Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying
