Instructions

You will have 70 minutes to complete the test from that time that you start it. You may use your study guides from the last two units on genetics and metabolism, and you may use your textbook. You may not use any other websites. If I see any indication that you have taken material from any website to answer test questions, I will receive a zero for the entire test.

Cici Menza is a 54-year-old seamstress who started to experience what she thought were menopausal symptoms. She went to a physician and underwent a series of tests. The tests revealed the following:

Blood pressure was severely elevated at 195/105.

Heart rate was increased at 110 beats/min.

A positive 24-hour urinary vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) test that indicated pheochromocytoma (a rare tumor of the adrenal medulla).

A computed tomographic scan showing a 4-cm mass on her left adrenal gland.

1.Which hormones are secreted by a pheochromocytoma?

2.What are the two values reported for arterial pressure, and what is the significance of each value?

3.Why were both the systolic and diastolic blood pressures elevated?

4.Which adrenergic receptors contribute primarily to systolic blood pressure and which contribute primarily to diastolic blood pressure in this situation?

5.Why might you not prescribe propranolol initially to treat a pheochromocytoma?

2) Name 5 important ideas/concepts and explain why it is important (don’t just define it), 50 words each: using heterozygosity to map migration, genetic drift, mimicry, Creation science and linkage disequilibrium

3) Should the origin of life be taught in Evolution? (I did not cover this concept, how life arose- abiogenesis, but many instructors cover this. – Look up the Miller-Urey experiment. Why would this be applicable to teaching the origin of life? 100 words
