Chapter 40, Problem F40.1A
Summary Introduction

To label:

The given figure with the correct name of the structure.

Introduction:

The arteries and veins are composed of three layers or tunics. The innermost layer, tunica interna is composed of an endothelium of simple squamous epithelial cells and the basement membrane. The middle layer, tunica media is composed of smooth muscle. The outer layer, tunica externa is composed of connective tissue.

Answer to Problem F40.1A

The table below represents the correct labels from Column A to Column B.

    Column AColumn B
    1.Tunica interna
    2.Tunica media
    3.Tunica externa

Explanation of Solution

  1. Tunica interna is labeled because it is the innermost layer which is composed of endothelium of simple squamous epithelial cells and the basement membrane that establishes a smooth lining next to the lumen of the blood vessel. Hence, this can be correctly labeled with 1.
  2. Tunica media is labeled because it is the middle layer between the tunica interna and tunica externa. It is composed of smooth muscle. It is distinguished by its color and transverse arrangement of its fibers. Hence, it can be correctly labeled with 2.
  3. Tunica externa is labeled because it is the outermost layer made up of connective tissues that are rich in collagen. It supports tunica media and supported by the elastic external lamina. Hence, it can be correctly labeled with 3.
Conclusion

The table below represents the correct labels from Column A to Column B.

    Column AColumn B
    1.Tunica Intima
    2.Tunica Media
    3.Tunica Externa

9. Aerobic respiration of one lipid molecule. The lipid is composed of one glycerol molecule connected to two fatty acid tails. One fatty acid is 12 carbons long and the other fatty acid is 18 carbons long in the figure below. Use the information below to determine how much ATP will be produced from the glycerol part of the lipid. Then, in part B, determine how much ATP is produced from the 2 fatty acids of the lipid. Finally put the NADH and ATP yields together from the glycerol and fatty acids (part A and B) to determine your total number of ATP produced per lipid. Assume no other carbon source is available. 18 carbons fatty acids 12 carbons 9 glycerol A. Glycerol is broken down to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, a glycolysis intermediate via the following pathway shown in the figure below. Notice this process costs one ATP but generates one FADH2. Continue generating ATP with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate using the standard pathway and aerobic respiration. glycerol glycerol-3- phosphate…
