- Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a solute that is consumed in order to "clean out" the digestive tract in preparation for a colonoscopy. PEG cannot enter intestinal cells as there is no transport mechanism for it. How would this affect the absorption of water into the small intestine? (assume that it is taken at the correct dose and you are not actually reversing the concentration gradient across the intestinal cells.) Explain your answer in terms of concentration gradients.arrow_forwardCertain malignant tumors of the pancreas cause excessive production of insulin.Affected individuals exhibit shaking and trembling, weakness and fatigue, sweatingand hunger.a) What is the effect of hyperinsulinism on the metabolism of carbohydrates,amino acids, and lipids by the liver?b) What are the causes of the observed symptoms? Suggest why this condition, ifprolonged, leads to brain damage.arrow_forwardIn upper gastrointestinal bleeding, without knowing the cause or source of bleeding, why do we give proton pump inhibitors (PPIS, e.g. omeprazole)?

Also define Cholera and especially why it was so widespread in cities.arrow_forwardYou have received a laboratory report showing the presence of a HIGH concentration of ketone bodies in the urine of a patient (ketosis). a) What disease would you suspect in this patient and why? b) Explain why ketone bodies accumulate in such patients, and the sequence of events that lead to their formation. Include the location, any pathways impacted, and the purpose of ketone formation. c) Give the names of the three different ketone bodies, and indicate which ones are used for fuel in extrahepatic cells. d) When ketones are used by extrahepatic cells for fuel, why is a new enzyme used in the pathway (why not simply reverse the pathway used to form ketones)? Explain.arrow_forward
- “Good” bacteria help prevent C. difficile infection by occupying the sites on the intestinal wall where C. difficile could attach and multiply. C. difficile produces toxins that activate macrophages and mast cells, cause leukocyte chemotaxis and the production of chemical mediators, which leads to fluid secretion. What type of response(s) is (are) characterized by these processes? Would this be inflammation? Or would it be a cell-mediated response, specific immune response? Or humoral response with T cells perhaps? I'm having a lot of trouble identifying the biological immune mechanism.arrow_forwardAnemia is characterized by low hemoglobin levels or a reduced number of red blood cells (both of which transport oxygen to cells). A common symptom of anemia is tiredness. a) Explain what the consequences are of anemia on cellular energy production. b) Suggest at least one other cellular effects of anemia and an explanation of this effect.arrow_forwardExplain this table (shown in picture) from a study with the help of the information below and additional information from the article (shown in picture): Primary liver cancer is one of the most prevalent life- threating diseases in China, and liver resection is the major therapy for this malignancy. Recently, various methods have been advocated perioperatively to maintain liver function and promote liver regener- ation after liver resections. These include systemic interventions such as antibiotics in perioperative period and methods to improve general health and the immunity of the individual such as prebiotics and probiotics. Among them, nutritional support is also a vital approach to protect liver function. It has been demonstrated that a good preoperative nutri- tional status could reduce the postoperative morbidity or mortality and consequently the costs of care after surgery. Moreover, malnutrition is frequent in patients suffering from malignant liver disease. Optimization of…arrow_forward
