Question
Chapter 37, Problem 10TYU
Summary Introduction
To hypothesize:
How various anesthetics would block pain with the help of action potential and synapses.
Concept introduction:
If there is sufficient shifting of the membrane potential, due to depolarization, then it would result in massive change in the voltage (membrane); this is known as the action potential. Synapse is referred to as a junction that is present between two nerve cells.

If left untreated, most HIV-infected individuals will develop AIDS. Current treatments are focused on highlyactive antiretroviral therapy (HAART). HAART usually consists of an orally delivered drug cocktail containingtwo different reverse transcriptase inhibitors and one other drug, such as a protease inhibitor.
Question: Develop a pharmacokinetic model of HAART treatment. Consider all 3 drugs. Make sure to include adiagram that illustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables. Whatparameters would you need to know to find the concentration of drug in the plasma? In the T cells?(You do not need to write out or solve any equations.)
