Chapter 28, Problem 4CCS
38-Year-Old Female with Preeclampsia
Ms. Johansen, 38, is 26 weeks pregnant with her first child. She was diagnosed with preeclampsia (see p. 1114) three weeks ago. Antihypertensive drugs (p. 724) and daily home care monitoring were initiated. However, her blood pressure is continuing to rise and is now 162/108 mm Hg. She complains of a constant headache, exhibits edema, and her urinalysis is positive for protein.
Her doctor has her admitted and orders further blood tests to assess Ms. Johansen's platelet level and liver function. "We may have to deliver because that’s the only cure for preeclampsia." she says to you during your clinical rotation in obstetrics. “But if we do, then the baby will have problems. It’s a tough decision because we have to balance both the mother's and the baby’s health.”

10. Your instructor will give you 2 amino acids during the activity session (video 2-7.
A. First color all the polar and non-polar covalent bonds in the R groups of your 2 amino acids
using the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid.
B. Next, color where all the hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and ionic bonds could
occur in the R group of each amino acid. Use the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds
in the backbone of each amino acid.
C. Position the two amino acids on the page below in an orientation where the two R groups
could bond together. Once you are satisfied, staple or tape the amino acids in place and label
the bond that you formed between the two R groups.
- Polar covalent Bond - Red
- Non polar Covalent boND- yellow

Find the dental formula and enter it in the following format:
I3/3 C1/1 P4/4 M2/3 = 42 (this is not the correct number, just the correct format)
Please be aware: the upper jaw is intact (all teeth are present). The bottom jaw/mandible is not intact. The front teeth should include 6 total rectangular teeth (3 on each side) and 2 total large triangular teeth (1 on each side).
