    Summary Introduction

    Introduction:

    Anatomy is related to body structure and function. It includes the study of cells, tissue, bones skeletal system, and organ system. It is distinct from physiology. It is the study of the function of the whole body and parts of the body. It focuses on the mechanisms and metabolic processes that occur in different organs of the body.

    Answer to Problem 1PL

    Correct answer:

    The correct answer is option (c) Anatomical position.

    Explanation of Solution

    Explanation/justification for the correct answer:

    Option (c). Anatomical position. In the anatomical position, the muscles are in minimum tension. It is erect or standing up position in humans. It is used as an initial point for physiological and anatomical descriptions and communications of the body. So, the correct answer is option (c).

    Explanation for incorrect answer:

    Option (a). The person is lying down. The lying position of a person is termed as supine and prone in which their body is supported by the surface underneath. It does not support the basis for communication, whereas it simply means the muscles of the body is in resting position. So, this is an incorrect option.

    Option (b). Relative positions. The position defined concerning another position. Anatomical position describes the relative positions of body parts. The relative positions are ventral, dorsal, cranial, caudal and superficial positions. Also, it does involve physiological functioning. So, this is an incorrect answer.

    Option (d). The person is sleeping. It is a state of reduced awareness and response. Sleeping is also associated with reduced movement in the human body. It is not a part of anatomical communication. So, this is an incorrect answer.

    1. In vivo testing provides valuable insight into a drug’s kinetics. Assessing drug kinetics following multiple different routes of administration provides greater insight than just 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: (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 po bioavailability, (f)Fpo absolute ip bioavailability, Fip    MAKE SURE ANSWERS HAVE UNITS if appropriate. SHOW ALL WORK, including equation used, variables used and each step to your solution.
    2. Drug quantification from plasma is commonly performed by using techniques such as HPLC or LC/MS. However, these methods do have limitations, and investigators may choose to use a radiolabeled analog of a drug instead. Radioligands are molecules that contain radioactive isotopes, commonly 3H or 14C. This technique allows investigators to quantify drug concentration from radiation measurements. The following measurements were made in 250 g rats following oral administration of 18.2 µCi of a 14C-labeled drug of interest: Time (min) Plasma Radiation Levels (µCi/L) 0 0.0 2 9.7 4 19.2 7 25.3 9 37.8 12 39.6 14 45.8 17 48.8 20 52.0 25 56.4 30 59.2 35 60.1 40 61.1 45 62.1 50 62.8 60 63.1 70 62.1 80 60.1 90 57.3 100 55.5 110 53.7 120 52.2 150 48.0 180 45.0 240 39.0  Note that a µCi is a measure of the amount of radioactivity and hence is a measure of the amount of drug present.  Given that the oral bioavailability of this drug is known to be essentially 100%, estimate the following from this…
