Summary Introduction
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD), caused by Treponema pallidum, a spirochete. If untreated, this disease may cause potentially severe consequences. In the last several years the incidence of syphilis has been increased. In the incident of syphilis, visible symptoms, such as chancre lesion formation, develop in diseased individuals. In addition, fear of the life-threatening consequences of untreated syphilis infections was high. Thus, treatment is required typically and promptly, and the infection is controlled with antibiotic, penicillin.

In Drosophila, an X linked recessive mutation, scalloped (sd), causes irregular wing margins. Diagram the F1 and F2 results if a (a) scalloped female is crossed with a normal male; (b) a scalloped male is crossed with a normal female (assume the female is homozygous). Compare these results to what you would find if the trait was not sex linked.
Case Study—Ella
Ella has a family history of diabetes. She wants to follow a healthful eating pattern that can lower her risk for developing this condition. Her dietitian recommends a goal of 450 to 600 kcal per meal and advises Ella to follow the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) for carbohydrates and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020, which recommend limiting added sugar. She also recommends that Ella choose whole grains rather than processed grains. Ella decides to pack a lunch to take to work every day. This morning she’s making a sandwich for her lunch.

Glitazones are taken orally (in pill form). Using pharmacokinetic modeling, deriveequations to describe how the concentration of glitazones varies in the plasma as a function of time. Yourequations should be of the form: dCglitazone /dt = something, or dMglitazone /dt = something. Your model shouldinclude three compartments: the gut, the plasma, and the fatty tissues. Make sure to include a diagram thatillustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables.
