3. Eric goes to the doctor to determine the cause and source of the pain. The physician orders a CT scan, which shows that Eric has an enlarged and inflamed appendix (an organ associated with the digestive system). Eric asks the physician why she did not just take an x-ray of his belly region. What is the physician's reasoning for why an x-ray would not be the best diagnostic imaging tool? a. X-ray images are more expensive to produce than CT scans. c. No, because the drug is supposed to elevate mood and affect brain function, and it shouldn't have any effect on the digestive system. d. No, because the drug is quickly absorbed from the digestive tract and does not remain in the digestive system long enough to have any effect there. Can You Synthesize What You've Learned? 1. Lynn was knocked off her bicycle during a race. She broke some bones in her right antebrachial region, suffered an abrasion on her mental region, and had severe bruising on her b. Soft-tissue structures do not show up well on basic x-rays. c. The x-rays could inflame the appendix further and cause it to burst. right gluteal and femoral regions. Explain where each of these injuries is located. d. X-rays now are used primarily for bone injuries only. When you are outside on a hot, humid day, what body changes occur to help your body temperature return to normal? 4. 2. Carly was stung by a bee and was taken to the emergency room because she was undergoing anaphylactic shock (e.g., her breathing became more rapid and more difficult, her heartbeat increased). She was given a shot of epinephrine, which reduced her allergic reactions and brought her breathing and heartbeat back to normal. Did the dose of epinephrine result in a negative feedback mechanism occurring, or a positive feedback mechanism occurring? Explain your answer. a. The blood vessels in your skin constrict. b. The sweat glands release sweat. c. Nerve impulses are sent to muscles to cause shivering. d. The smooth muscle associated with hair follicles contracts, causing goose bumps. 5. A friend just started taking Zoloft (an SSRI) and is experiencing an upset stomach and diarrhea. Your friend asks if the drug is causing her symptoms and you respond: Your grandmother is being seen by a radiologist to diagnose a possible tumor in her small intestine. Explain to your grandmother what imaging techniques would best determine whether a tumor exists, and which techniques would be inadequate for determining the placement of 3. a. Yes, because the drug is irritating her stomach lining and that explains her symptoms. b. Yes, because serotonin is located in both the brain and the digestive tract, so the drug is altering digestive system functioning. the tumor.
