Textbook Question

Chapter 1, Problem 5CAL

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:

a. Yes, because the drug is irritating her stomach lining and that explains her symptoms.
b. Yes, because serotonin is located both in the brain and the digestive tract, so the drug is altering digestive system functioning.
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.

Definition Definition Organ system that helps in the digestion of food by mechanical and biochemical processes. The digestive system breaks down food into simpler components that enable the body to then absorb or transport nutrients. The human digestive system includes the gastrointestinal tract or alimentary canal and the associate glands. The organs of the gastrointestinal tract include the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. The associated glands include salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.

H gene assorts independently from the I gene. Both on autosomes. One man and one woman, both of HhIAIB genotype. Determine the blood type of progeny and fractions out of 16

Alleles at the P locus control seed color. Plants which are pp have white seeds, white flowers and no pigment in vegetative parts. Plants which are P_ have black seeds, purple flowers and may have varying degrees of pigment on stems and leaves. Seed color can be assessed, visually, based on if the seed is white or not white A gene for mold resistance has been reported and we want to determine its inheritance and whether it is linked to P. For the purposes of this exercise, we will assume that resistance is controlled by a single locus M, and M_ plants are resistant and mm plants are susceptible. Resistance can be measured, under greenhouse conditions, 2 weeks after planting, by injecting each seedling with a spore suspension. After two weeks, the seedlings can be rated as resistant or susceptible, based on whether or not tissue is actively sporulating. For this exercise we will use seed and data from the F10 generation of a recombinant inbred population produced using single seed…
