/in /by

Body Burden assignment: REACTION PAPER

This assignment needs to be typed, double spaced, normal font and margins on normal paper. ONE PAGE ONLY.

At the top of your paper, please make sure you also list your last name, first name, section number and Body Burden.

Use your Web Search engine (such as google) and search the term: Body Burden.

After reading about Body Burden and (DIOXINS), write-up the following:

Define Body Burden and the group of chemicals called Dioxins.

(Note that body burden includes more chemicals than Dioxins, but I want you to specifically mention Dioxins as well as any other chemicals you feel like writing about.)

What problems can these chemicals cause?

Where do they come from?

How do they get into the food chain and into your body?

What are hormone mimics?

Tell me what you think about what you have learned about body burden.

Tell me about any changes you may or not make with this information.

How Useful Are Interferons in Oncology

please I have uploaded the instructions of this paper and there are questions that we should discuss about chapter 53 attached below

 

Pharmacological Management Option Myocardial Infarction

/in /by

Start the body of the paper on a new page after the title page. You should review current research on at least five (5) pharmacological management options for the disease (from paper 1) including drugs in clinical trials. Your review should include these components:

1) The physiologic rationale for using the drugs in treating your assigned disease.

2)The mechanisms of action of these drugs.

3)The side effects of these drugs and their contraindications.

4)The dosages and routes of administration of the drugs.

This section must include a minimum of 5 unique references that are recent and the paper should be 3 pages long.

 

Figures

Figures are allowed in any section, but do not count towards page count. These can be your original figures/drawings or (if properly cited) from one of your sources. Place all figures at the end of the paper.

the Origins of Life

/in /by

Proponents of “Intelligent Design” insist that institutions of higher learning should permit, but not require, scientists and philosophers to develop hypotheses of divine origins for mankind. They argue that the concept of Intelligent Design implies nothing about beliefs, and only implies that “life had an intelligent source.” Basing your answer on the readings and course material, do you think Intelligent Design should be taught as legitimate course of study? Why or why not? Finally, why do you think a significant portion of the U.S. population today still doubts evolution, despite all of the evidence?

Your answer should be limited to 250 words (approx 1 page).

Cause of HIV AIDS

Broadly speaking, a disease is an abnormal condition that negatively impacts the health of an individual. Answer the questions. In-text citations are required and you must cite at least five sources on your reference page. Use photos annd charts . information in the attachment

 

Hemophilia & the Genetic Issue that Causes it

/in /by

I would like you to prepare an essay describing one genetic disorder of your choice in detail. Your essay should cover the following topics, and be in full sentences and paragraphs – other than the punnet square:

  • What is the disorder called?
  • What is the genetic issue that causes it?
    • Be very specific – not just the mechanism, but, which chromosome is affected, what happens on that chromosome, where on that chromosome specifically, and, if known, what is the effect on the genetic code contained on that chromosome. Provide detail to the extent of the scientific knowledge available.
  • Is it autosomal or sex linked? Is it caused by a dominant, recessive, or incomplete dominant allele?
  • What are the symptoms of the disorder, and what are the health consequences to the person affected with the disorder?
  • Provide a punnet square of the cross between an affected parent who is homozygous for the disorder, and a carrier of the disorder. List the genotype and phenotype frequency expected in the offspring of such a cross (you are playing genetic counselor here). What would you advise the parents to do?

Remember in your own words. Do not copy and paste anything. Your own words. You have until August 2 to hand this in. A good target is a full page or so, not including the punnet square.

DNA and Protein Synthesis Worksheet

/in /by

This is a lab assignment, detailed questions are post in the attached file. Need to finish Part 1 until Part 4

Here is part of question 1 for brief look if you can work this assignment or not.

The goals of this lab are:

1.To gain a basic understanding of the structure of DNA, RNA, and Proteins.

2.To gain a basic understanding of DNA replication and protein synthesis.

Introduction

This lab describes the structures and functions of DNA and RNA, the chemical molecules that carry hereditary information from generation to generation and allow it to be used in building and running the bodies of living things.

Terms you need to know for this lab:

Codon: Three mRNA bases that specify an amino acid.

Anticodon: tRNA that bases that match Codon.

Human Population Growth

Watch the following Youtube Video on Human Population Growth.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc4HxPxNrZ0

What was your overall impression after watching? Using the video data, calculate the growth rate (r) for humans. Which factors do you think are most important in influencing human carrying capacity (K)?

Also, Photosynthesis is the main process that CO2 is removed from the atmosphere. Increasing CO2 levels are the major cause of Global Climate Change.

Using the website below calculate how many trees are needed to offset your carbon footprint. Based on what you learned, what can you do to help become carbon neutral?

Place these two items on separate sheets. Do not combine

Hormones and Their Functions

/in /by

Prepare a written paper of at least 500 words that includes the following: (apa format)

  • Discuss the hormones, and explain how hormones regulate catabolic and anabolic reactions.
  • Describe the parts of the nephron, and explain how they participate in the processes of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion.
  • Mention the hormones that increase or decrease the urine production, and explain the mechanism of action of one of these hormones.
  • Describe the action of the aldosterone in the regulation of sodium and potassium.
  • Explain briefly how the kidneys regulate the acid-base balance.
  • Explain the possible reasons he or she could be experiencing weight gain or weight loss given a metabolic imbalance.

Student Directions for On-line Module 10 (April 13 – 17, 2020)

Before beginning this module,

  • Read through the entire laboratory investigation in your lab manual (pages 143-151).
  • Review Lecture 10 Inheritance Slides (with Audio).
  • Review Lecture 10 Tutorial (with Audio) to complete Exercises 1 – 3.
  • Follow along with these document (Student Instructions).
  • A modified lab report (Chapter 10 Inheritance Worksheet) is posted to Blackboard; it is different from the physical lab report manual to better align with the online module. You will complete these pages and submit as your lab report.
    • Remember, your answers should be your own. The policy on cheating and academic integrity still applies. Do not copy from your classmates.
    • Some activities and exercises require you to fill in Punnett squares. These are set up as tables that you can type your answers in. You do not need to turn in online, only for self study.
    • If you encounter any difficulties in filling out or submitting pages of your lab report, let your instructor know immediately.
    • MS Office 365 is now available to CPP students for free. Please visit the following page to download. You will have access to Word.
