Summary Introduction

To determine:

The name and describe the three types of joints as classified by the range of motion.

Introduction:

Interaction of bones occur, wherever they meet at the articulations or joints. The joints are classified on the basis of their structure or function. Functional basis of classification comes under the range of motion.

Explanation of Solution

The functional classification of joints or the classification of joints on the basis of range of motion is divided into 3 types that are as follows:

1. Freely movable joints: These are also called as synovial joints or diarthrosis, which means “through joints”. These are present in the appendicular skeleton. These are subdivided on the basis of their plane of movement.

2. Slightly movable joints: These are also called as amphiarthrosis, which means “on both sides joint”. It is either, cartilaginous or fibrous. It depends on the type of connections between the two bones (opposing).

3. Immovable joints: These are also called as synarthrosis, which means “together joint”. These joints can be either, cartilaginous or fibrous. It depends on the type of connections between the two bones. The two bones over the time, can even fuse or ossify.

Conclusion

Interaction of bones occur, wherever they meet at the articulations or joints.

1. In vivo testing provides valuable insight into a drug’s kinetics. Assessing drug kinetics following multiple different routes of administration provides greater insight than just a single route of administration alone. The following data was collected in 250 g rats following bolus iv, oral (po), and intraperitoneal (ip) administration.Using this data and set of graphs, determine: (a) k, C0, V, and AUC* for the bolus iv data  (b) k, ka, B1, and AUC* for the po data  (c) k, ka, B1, and AUC* for the ip data  (d) relative bioavailability for po vs ip, Fpo/Fip  (e) absolute po bioavailability, (f)Fpo absolute ip bioavailability, Fip    MAKE SURE ANSWERS HAVE UNITS if appropriate. SHOW ALL WORK, including equation used, variables used and each step to your solution.
2. Drug quantification from plasma is commonly performed by using techniques such as HPLC or LC/MS. However, these methods do have limitations, and investigators may choose to use a radiolabeled analog of a drug instead. Radioligands are molecules that contain radioactive isotopes, commonly 3H or 14C. This technique allows investigators to quantify drug concentration from radiation measurements. The following measurements were made in 250 g rats following oral administration of 18.2 µCi of a 14C-labeled drug of interest: Time (min) Plasma Radiation Levels (µCi/L) 0 0.0 2 9.7 4 19.2 7 25.3 9 37.8 12 39.6 14 45.8 17 48.8 20 52.0 25 56.4 30 59.2 35 60.1 40 61.1 45 62.1 50 62.8 60 63.1 70 62.1 80 60.1 90 57.3 100 55.5 110 53.7 120 52.2 150 48.0 180 45.0 240 39.0  Note that a µCi is a measure of the amount of radioactivity and hence is a measure of the amount of drug present.  Given that the oral bioavailability of this drug is known to be essentially 100%, estimate the following from this…
