Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 2CSL
A fireman fell from a ladder while fighting a fire and severely fractured the thigh and leg bones in his right leg. He was hospitalized for several weeks, then he was wheelchair-bound for several months while his leg bones healed. Upon removal of the cast, it was apparent that his right thigh and leg bones were thin and weak. What factors contributed to this thinning and weakening of the bones, and what should the fireman do to improve the strength of these bones?

4. This question focuses on entrainment.
a. What is entrainment?
b. What environmental cues are involved in entrainment, and which one is most influential?
c. Why is entrainment necessary?
d. Assuming that a flash of darkness is an effective zeitgeber, what impact on circadian
rhythms would you expect to result from an event such as the 2024 solar eclipse (assume
it was viewed from Carbondale IL, where totality occurred at about 2 pm)? Explain your
reasoning. You may wish to consult this phase response diagram.

e. Finally, give a real-world example of how knowledge of circadian rhythms and
entrainment has implications for human health and wellbeing or conservation biology.
This example could be from your reading or from things discussed in class.
