3 Bionic Question

/in /by

1-    List the intended use, mechanism of action (how does the drug work), type of controlled release and/or targeting used, and the company that produces each of the following formulations:

 

Ambien-CR

 

 

 

 

Depakote-ER

 

 

 

 

Effexor-XR

 

 

 

 

Sinemet-CR

 

 

 

 

 

Paxil-CR

 

 

 

 

2-    A “health guru” has stated that “the makeup you put on your skin goes into your bloodstream”. Using what you know about the relationship between molecular weight and lipophilicity and skin permeation, discuss the conditions under which this statement may be correct.

 

 

 

 

 

3-    A drug may be either extracted from a plant or produced synthetically in the laboratory. Which method is likely to result in a compound that may be toxic to the body?

“Evolution of Disease, Humans, and Animals”

Note: Online students, please respond to one (1) of the following three (3) bulleted items.

  • In your own words explain the concept of rRNA then suggest three (3) reasons why scientists choose to use rRNA as an Evolutionary Chronometer.
  • Provide a 100-250 word debate as to whether or not you believe that epigenetic marks can be inherited. Next briefly summarize the nature of the information that epigenetic marks store.
  • Read the New York Times article entitled, “Reverse Engineering Birds’ Beaks into Dinosaur Bones” found here then provide a brief summary of the article. Next discuss whether or not you believe that the evolution of birds can be reversed. Why or why not?

Reply to this statement

 

The epigenetic marks can be inherited through the DNA of a certain generation and then passed on through gametes to the coming generation. The inheritance of epigenetic marks do happen and there are some scientific groups figuring out to what extent this happens, there are some groups or subset of genes referred to as imprint genes which have two functions one which comes from the mother and the other one from the farther, either coming from the mother or from the mother their allele is methylated important but only one produces the proteins because they remain elucidated mostly in the early development. It is very important to establish that the phenotype to be inherited is dependent on being passed through the gametes. An illustration of the mice is stressing the mother which is more likely raised, and is referred to as associative changes in the DNA methylation in glucocorticoid receptor gene. This is not done through gametes although there is some behavior interaction in the parents.

 

The organism can be changed by the environmental factors. these changes can be positive and some can be  associated with very bad diseases like cancer, some certain epigenetic marks can be inherited and change their shape due to environmental factors and cellular features over the generations.

/in /by

Assignment 3: Writing and Pronunciation

you will write 3 reports and use them as your script for your Week 2 Oral Report. Your writing section for this assignment will include 2 paragraphs for each of these:

The Department of Orthopedics (Musculoskeletal System)
The Department of Pulmonology (Respiratory System)
The Department of Gastroenterology (Digestive System)
In order to earn the maximum credit for the written report you need to incorporate at least 10 medical terms for each department, using them in a manner that demonstrates your knowledge of their meaning.

Include the major or most common diseases or conditions seen in each department.
Include at least three of the principal procedures that are relevant to each department.
Highlight pertinent laboratory and radiological diagnostic services relevant to each department.
Limit your analysis of each department to two paragraphs.
For your oral report for this week, you will read aloud your Written Sections for the Final Project. You can use the built-in recording software on your own computer, or you can use the suggested Audacity Recording Software available for free download and use for PC and Mac computers.
