Expert Solution & Answer

Summary Introduction

To review:

Match the term decussation with the most closely related description given below:

Second order

Pain, temperature, crude touch, pressure

Voluntary control skeletal muscle

Subconscious control of distal limb musculature

Afferent

Information about “what,” “where,” and “when”

Unconscious proprioception

Crossover

Position change noise-related

Introduction:

In the ascending tracts of the spinal cord, the first-order axon and the second-order axon goes across to the opposite area of the brain-stem or the spinal cord, thereby forming a crossover. This is known as decussation.

Explanation of Solution

The first and second-order axon is arranged as a cross when it ascends across the spinal cord. This crossing over of the axons is known as decussation. This crossing over leads to the transmission of sensory messages from the left side of the body to the right side of the brain and vice-versa.

Conclusion

Therefore, it can be concluded that the term decussation can be correctly matched with option (h) crossover.

According to a recent study, 1 out of 50,000 people will be diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis can be caused by a mutant form of the CFTR gene (dominant gene symbol is F and mutant is f). A. Using the rate of incidence above, what is the frequency of carriers of the cystic fibrosis allele for CFTR in the US? (3 pts) B. In a clinical study, 400 people from the population mentioned in (A.) were genotyped for BRCA1 Listed below are the results. Are these results in Hardy- Weinberg equilibrium?

Kinetics: One-Compartment First-Order Absorption 1. In vivo testing provides valuable insight into a drug’s kinetics. Assessing drug kinetics following multiple routes of administration provides greater insight than a single route of administration alone. The following data was collected in 250-g rats following bolus IV, oral (PO), and intraperitoneal (ip) administration.  Using this data and set of graphs, determine:(calculate for each variable) (a) k, C0, V, and AUC* for the bolus iv data  (b) k, ka, B1, and AUC* for the po data  c) k, ka, B1, and AUC* for the ip data  (d) relative bioavailability for po vs ip, Fpo/Fip  (e)absolute ip bioavailability, Fip  (f) absolute po bioavailability, Fpo
