Answer to Problem 1CC

Correct answer:

1. Interneuron(c) Integrating centre
2. Motor neuron(b) Efferent signal, (e) output signal
3. Sensory neuron(a) afferent neuron, (d) input signal

Explanation of Solution

1. Interneuron - (c). Integrating centre

Interneuron is present in the spinal cord and is an important part of reflex action. It acts as a connective link between the motor neuron and the sensory neuron and hence it is called as integrating centre of the reflex arc.

2. Motor neuron - (b), (e). Efferent signal, output signal

Motor .neuron is the set of neuron that conduct signal called as output signal from the brain to the target muscles. The neurons are also called as efferent neurons and the signal is called as the efferent signal.

3. Sensory neuron - (a), (d). Afferent neuron, input signal

Sensory neuron is the set of neuron that conducts signal called as input signal from the sensory receptors to the processing unit of the CNS such as brain or spinal cord. The neurons are also called as afferent neurons and the signal is called as the afferent signal.

a. What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent.  b. What will happen to elimination of the drug in the previous question if the system is saturated? explain and show any math involved
If you wanted to reduce the difference between peak and trough levels that occur with repeated administration of a drug, how would you adjust the dose and dose interval without changing the plateau concentration (plateau is the average of peak and trough levels)? Select your answers for both dose and interval. Hint: It may be helpful to think about this problem using an example such as food. How would you eat if you wanted to maintain very steady hunger/satiety levels without changing your total caloric intake? Options: A. Dose; Increase dose     B. Dose; Decrease dose     C. Dose; Do not change dose     D. Interval; Increase the interval between doses (give the drug less frequently)    E. Interval; Decrease the interval between doses (give the drug more frequently)     F. Interval; Do not change the interval
What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent. Show the math
