Why are carbohydrates important for the human body? describe their structure function and special attributes
Carbs are mde of carbons, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms (1:2:1) Simple sugars (monosaccharides) are the monomer of carbs. Disaccharides are 2 monomers of monosaccharides bound together, while polysaccharides are the polymers. The bond between monosaccharide groups is called a glycosidic bond. Glucose is the most common monosacc and is the primary form of energy to many cells, including the brain. Carbs are used for energy, storage and structure (form the groups on red blood cells to determine blood type). An example of polysaccharides in the body would be glycogen, which is stored in the liver and muscles for later use.

Describe an example in the body of negative feedback and how it maintains homeostasis
You have a stimulus (heat), a receptor (thermoreceptors in the skin), that send a message to the control center (hypothalamus in the brain). The control center determines that the body is past the set point and sends a message to the effectors (blood vessels dilate to release heat and make you turn red; sweat glands are stimulated to secrete sweat to cool the body via evaporation). The body returns to normal temperature and the feedback loop turns off.

describe in detail the process of taking a deep breath
air enters the body through the nostrils then goes into the nasal cavity. it passes through the nasopharynx past the oropharynx and the pharynx, then past the epiglottis and into the larynx. It then goes through the trachea into the primary bronchi. Next through the secondary and tertiary bronchi and into the terminal bronchi, then to the respiratory bronchi. It travels through the alveolar ducts into the alveoli where oxygen and Co2 is exchanged. The air is moved past ciliated pseudostratified columnar cells with mucus, through stratified squamous epithelium, and then into simple squamous epithelium, where gas exchange can take place. Air moves from areas of high to low pressure. when you inhale the pressure inside is lower than the outside and so air rushes into the lungs 1. impulses are conducted on phrenic nerves to muscle fibers in the diaphragm contracting them 2. as the dome shaped diaphragm moves downward the thoracic cavity expands 3. the external intercostal muscles may contract raising the ribs and expanding the thoracic cavity further. The sternocleidomastoid, scalenes De, serratus posterior superiors, pectoralis minor, and erector spinae all assist in pulling the thoracic cavity upward and outward 4. the intra alveolar pressure decreases 5. atmospheric pressure, 760mm Hg, which is greater than the intra alveolar pressure 758 mmHg forces air into the respiratory tract through the air passages lungs fill with air

discuss first and second degree burns, healing processes, treatment, and how they affect the integumentary system
A first- degree burn, superficial partial-thickness, injures only the epidermis. Can be caused by minor sunburns or contact with chemicals or heat. They have minor inflammation, redness, pain, and dry and peeling skin and usually heal within a few days on two weeks without scarring. Cool water, pain relief and antibiotic ointment are typical treatments. Second degree or deep partial- thickness has fluid escaping from damaged fibroblasts, epidermal stem cells, and leukocytes are all involved in the healing process. These burns can be caused by exposure to hot objects, liquids, flames are burning clothing. Keeping wound clean and bandages is important to prevent infection. Healing takes 3 weeks without scarring but can cause pigment changes. In some cases skin grafting may be needed. If accessory structures and stem cells are affected, there can by scarring and lack of structures in the healed area. Cold water, pain meds and antibiotic cream are used to treat. Burns on the face, hands buttock, groin, and feet may require emergency treatment. the rule of nines is applied to the burn area to estimate how much body fluids and electrolytes are required. keeping the skin clean to prevent infections is paramount. The epidermal and dermal stem cells will replace tissues.

How are competitive enzyme inhibitors-different from non competitive enzyme inhibitors in how they bind and how the function
Competitive vs noncompetitive inhibitors of enzymes, inhibitors bind to the enzyme to revent the enzyme from catalyzing the substrate reaction. They bind in either active site (competitive) or an allosteric or distant site ( noncompetitive), which changes shape of the enzymes active site. This "turns off" an enzyme. competitive inhibitors compete with the substreate for binding in the active site. If more substrate is added, the less the inhibitor can bind. A noncompetitive inhibitor does not compete with the substrate and changes the shape of the enzyme. this can be a poison, like cyanide.
Describe the stages of mitosis in detail including the important events, structures and what happens to the chromosomes in each step
Division of DNA within the nucleus to form 2 nuclei occurs in Mitosis, and cytokinesis, which is the division of the cytoplasm to form 2 cells with each having on of the nuclei 4 stages of mitosis: 1) Prophase, chromatin supercoils into chromosomes, the nucleolus breaks down and disappears, spindle fibers begin to grow from centrioles, centriole pairs move to opposite poles of the cell, and the nuclear envelope disassembles: 2) metaphase: chromosomes are aligned in the equatorial plate as spindle fibers attach to the centromere of each chromosome and move them into the center of the cell 3) Anaphase: spindle fibers move sister chromatids apart toward the cell's poles and each sister chromatid, with its own centromere is now considered a chromosome) 4) Telophase- chromosomes arrive at each cell pole, chromosomes uncoil each new nucleus forms a nucleolus, the mitotic spindle breaks up and disappears, and anew nuclear envelope forms around each of the 2 new sets of chromatin cytokinesis: division of the cytoplasm between the two newly forming cells- each with their own nucleus

explain the process of the citric acid cycle, starting with the product from glycolysis. list the location of the process, the molecules entering and exiting, and the final products
First, if oxygen is present, the pyruvate can leave the cytoplasm and enter the matrix of the mitochondrion and do the intermediate stage, which involves the addition of coenzyme A to the pyruvate. A carboxyl group is removed in the form of CO2 and hydrogen atoms plus their electrons are transferred to a molecule of NADH. Sinse there are 2 pyruvates, 2 Co2 and 2NADH molecules are formed at this step. which also results in 2 acetyl-CoA molecules that are ready to enter the Citric Acid Cycle In the CAC, for each acetyl-CoA that enters, 2 Co2 molecules, 3 NADH molecules, 1 ATP molecule, and 1 FADH2 molecules are made for each turn of the 10 step cycles. The total molecules are formed from the CAC are 4 CO2, 6NADH, 2 ATP, 2 FADH2 molecules. When added to the products of the intermediate step, there are 6 CO2, 8 NADH, 2 ATP, 2 FADH2 molecules formed from 1 glucose
why would taking synthetic Erythropoitin give endurance athletes an advantage over their competitors?
Generating more erythrocytes to carry more oxygen to the body is a huge advantage. Synthetic erythropoietin hormone was developed to treat patients with anemia, in order to increase their erythrocyte (rbc) count. However. too many erythrocytes would increase hematocrit above normal levels >45% and this could cause the heart to work harder to pump the thick, viscous blood through the body. This can lead to an increase in blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, or even cerebral or pulmonary embolisms. The synthetic EPO is like a boost in the arm, instead of a long, vigorous training program at altitude, and thus an increase in oxygen carrying capacity can be huge advantage in endurance sports. However it can be an unfair advantage. some athletes have naturally high hematocrit levels and they would not have as much of a boost by taking EPO as someone with lower hematocrit.

Discuss the major differences between intramembranous ossification and endochondral ossification.
Intramembranous ossification produces flat bones of the skull (frontal, parietal, occipital). Facial bones (zygomatic, maxilla, madible) central part of the clavicle, sternum. It begins when mesenchyme becomes thickened and condensed with blood vessels. 1) Ossification centers form within thicken regions of mesenchyme beginning at the eighth week of development, with osteoprogenitor cells becoming osteoblasts and secreting osteoid. 2) osteoid undergoes calcification, entrapping osteoblasts, and turning them into osteocytes. 3) woven bone forms the rest of the skeleton, starting with fetal hyaline cartilage model in the eighth to 12 week. Cartilage calcifies and forms a periosteal bony collar around embryonic hyaline cartilage in the fetus. A periosteal bud extends from the periosteum into the cartilage shaft, forming the primary ossification center. Secondary ossification center then form at the epiphyses of the developing bone.. Eventually bone tissue replaces all of the cartilage except at the epiphyseal growth plate and the articular cartilage. Lengthwise growth continues until around the time of puberty the epiphyseal plates re replaced completely by bone tissue.

describe the process of cross bride cycling once calcium enters the sarcomere and is available to bind
Release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which is triggered by the arrival of the action potention at the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ channels open and Ca2+ diffuses out of the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the sarcoplasm. Ca2+ binds to troponin in muscles thin actin filaments (red molecules) causing conformational changes of troponin. This affects the shape of the enterire troponin- tropomyosin (green rope like) complex, exposing myosin binding sites on actin. Crossbridge cycling continually repeats four steps. 1- crossbridge formation (attaching myosin head) (yellow) to actin. 2. a power stroke (swiveling of myosin head to pull the thin filament a small distance past the thick filament 3. release of myosin head from acting resulting from the binding ATP into a site on myosin head 4- reset myosin head resulting from the splitting of ATP and pi. Binding from ATP to the myosin head causes the release of myosin from acting. The hydrolysis splitting of ATP then provides energy for the conformational change in resetting of the myosin head

Rough ER synthesizes proteins destined for the cell membrane, for lysosomes, or for secretion. Rough ER has rough ribosomes attached to it. The Golgi apparatus is a sack of flattened membranes that get the proteins from the rough endoplasmic reticulum, they then modify package, and sort them for delivery to other organelles or to the plasma membrane of the cell. Golgi looks like a rainbow.

Describe the process of transcription. What does it produce? where in the cell does it occur? what molecules are involved
Transcription occurs in the nucleus and it is the copying and formation of messenger RNA from the DNA genetic code. During initiation, the DNA is unwound by the enzyme RNA polymerase at the promoter of the gene. Then in elongation, the RNA polymerase moves along with ones strand of the DNA whith the gene and catalyzes synthesis of RNA, making the bases of RNA complimentary to the bases of DNA, with Uracil replacing thymine in the RNA, in termination exons remaining in the code and introns being spliced out of a guanine cap and a 3' poly A tail are added, then the finished product passes through the pore in the nuclear envelope to enter cytoplasm for translation
Describe the process of translation
Translations or synthesis of a protein occurs in the cytoplasm and involves 3 process Initiation elongation termination During initiation the small subunit, large subunit, mRNA is in the P site of the ribosome. During elongation of the following steps occurs repeatedly. A charged tRNA with its amino acid attached is positioned in the A site of the ribosome. The specific tRNA is based on complementary base paring of the codon of the mRNA and the anticodon of that charged tRNA. A peptide bond then forms between the 2 amino acids, one in the P site and the other in the A site. At this point the first tRNA is released and the ribosome shifts down one codon on the mRNA. The process continues until a stop codon enters the A site signaling the termination of translation. Termination occurs when a stop codon (UAA, UAG, or UGA) enters the A site to end translation. A release factor enters the A site at this point instead of a charged tRNA. When the ribosome hits the factor bound to the mrNA stop codon, the two subunits of the ribosome are separated from the mRNA and the newly synthesized protein is released.

If the cells of the alveoli suddenly become stratified, how would that affect lung function
going from simple squamous epithelium will fundamentally prevent the ability of the alveoli to do gas exchange quickly between the air sacs and the pulmonary capillaries. The function of stratified squamous epithelium is to provide protection, such as against abrasions or chemicals, so thickening the lung tissue would reduce the surface area available for oxygen and Carbon dioxide exchange and would reduce the overall volume of the lungs, leading to decreased oxygen available for cellular respiration, Increased Co2, which would affect pH levels, and likely death if were widespread.

Similarities and differences between skeletal and cardiac muscle
skeletal and cardiac muscles are both contractile, and lead to movements. skeletal muscle is used for conscious movement of the body and is voluntary, contains several nuclei, and are in long threadlike fibers. cardiac muscle is found only in the heart, is involuntary. has intercalated discs, has one nucleus, is branched and interconnected.
Which fibers dominate many of the back and calf muscles that contract almost continually to maintain posture?
slow-twitch
If you were to remove the gastrocnemius muscle you would expose the
soleus
in humans, the only cell that bears a flagellum is the
sperm cell
anatomy is the study of
structure and form
While most of the cells in ta hair are dead, the living epithelial cells are found in
the hair bulb
Discuss how intrinsic clotting is both similar and different from extrinsic clotting
the intrinsic pathway is initiated by damage to the inside of the vessel wall and is initiated by platelets. This pathway typically takes approximately 3-6 minutes. In contrast. the extrinsic pathway is initiated by damage to the tissue that is outside of the vessel, and this pathway usually takes approximately 15 seconds. The intrinsic pathway starts with platelets releasing Factor XII to activate factor XI, then has a cascade until it reaches the common pathway where Factor X is active. Prothrombin is converted to thrombin, fibrinogen to fibrin, and a clot forms, plugging the damage. The extrinsic pathway starts when tissue damage releases tissue factor III (thromboplastin) which interacts with factor VII and Ca2+ and then intersects also with the common pathway to form a clot
describe the blood flow into and out of the heart starting where the blood enters the heart after leaving the lungs and then take it all
the oxygen rich blood flows out of the lungs in the right and left pulmonary veins, traveling to the left atrium. The blood in the left atrium flows through the bicuspid (mitral) valve into the left ventricle. Blood leaves the left ventricle through the aortic valve and enters the aorta to flow through the body, exiting in branches along the aortic arch including the right brachiocephalic artery, the left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery on its way down the descending or thoracic aorta. Oxygen poor blood enters the right atrium from the superior vena cava, inferior VC and coronary sinus. The blood leaves the right atrium through the tricuspid valve and enters the right ventricle. Flows through the pulmonary valve then enters the pulmonary trunk. Blood then flows into the right and left pulmonary arteries traveling too the lungs where gas exchange occurs.
blood colloid osmotic pressure is largely due to
the proteins in the blood, and it promotes reabsorption
when you are exposed to bright light, a reflex is initiated and your iris constricts to decrease pupil size. Which structure serves as a receptor in this system
the retina
when we shiver on a cold day, the heat produced by muscle tissue is a demonstration of
the second law of thermodynamics
Positive feedback in the body
the stimulus is reinforced to continue in the same direction until a climactic event occurs. Following the climactic event, the body again returns to homeostasis. They are rare in the body and can include : blood clotting, birth, lactation, in breastfeeding, the stimulus is the baby suckling at the breast. The receptor is the sensory receptors in the skin of the breast that send signals to the control center, which is the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus sends signals to the posterior pituitary to release oxytocin hormone. The oxytocin is released and heads to the effector tissue, which is the glands in the breast tissue. Mammary glands eject breast milk. Baby feeds and continues to suckle, which reinforces the positive feedback. When nursing ends, The release of hormones stoop and so does milk productions
