Chapter 22, Problem 16E
Summary Introduction
To explain: The effect on the appetite and weight of the ob/ob mouse, when the circulatory system of an ob/ob mouse is surgically joined to that of a normal mouse.
Concept introduction: The ob/ob mouse, which is also known as the obese mouse is a mutant mouse. It eats excessively due to the mutation in their gene, which is responsible for the leptin production and becomes profoundly obese. This mouse is an animal model of the type II diabetes.

A microwave oven seems like a nice solution, since it deposits energy quickly and microwaves are non-ionizing radiation (they do not cause DNA mutation). However, water absorbs microwaves more effectively than ice does, meaning that the portion of an organ that has already melted will get warmer at a higher rate than the remaining ice – the opposite of what we want! - The transmission of radiation through a weakly absorbing material such as ice or water can be modeled by Beer's law, which assumes that the rate of absorption at a depth x is proportional to the local radiation intensity I(x) times an absorption coefficient, which is often written as μ or a or just µ). Noting that absorption decreases the intensity, we can write a differential equation a Solving the differential equation with the boundary condition on the surface being gives the relationship For a standard microwave oven…arrow_forward3.
