Instructions:

The purpose of this final exam is to test your ability to clearly explain and/or apply concepts covered in this course. You are required to answer seven questions for this examination. Each answer should be a brief essay. Assessment of answers is based on the scope and breadth of your answer as well as the clarity of expression. This is an open book, open resource exam. Anything is fair game, including collaboration with your fellow students.

1. The concentration of a serum protein is determined by its rate of synthesis and clearance. Outline and briefly discuss the factors which would determine the concentration of a large molecular weight serum protein (too large for renal filtration).

2. The half-life of an intracellular protein can be influenced by many factors. With such in mind, provide a mechanism of a specific disease state which is based on the alteration of the half-life of an intra cellular

3. Not taking into consideration environmental pressure, list and discuss the possible mechanisms that evolution occurs, at the DNA level.

4. List and discuss the mechanism by which heterochromatin converts to euchromatin.

5. Describe the predicted changes in hetero- and euchromatin that would occur in the cell cycle.

6. Provide an example of how an RNA virus can express a pathologic condition.

Gene flow is the exchange of genes between populations, which are usually of the same species.[35] Examples of gene flow within a species include the migration and then breeding of organisms, or the exchange of pollen. Gene transfer between species includes the formation of hybrid organisms and horizontal gene transfer.

Through Glomerular filtration a bulk process which incorporates water and low molecular weight which generates from the lumen of the capillary which includes on the edge of the filtration membrane. If it’s a low molecular which will be easily absorbed by the plasma, it includes many polar organic molecules examples glucose, amino acids, etc. which can get easily into the filtration. The one which does not get filtered easily are proteins which are penetrated into plasma. Often the structure of the filtration can be problematic which does not allow proteins to be easily filtered due to the small molecular weight substance blended in protein. Factors are proteins which make cells too large to be filtered easily.

The only hard and fast rule for this exam is the final date for submission. The deadline for evaluation at full credit value is noon Wednesday. Subsequent submission will be accepted up until midnight Friday, but these will be assessed at one half their full credit value. No submissions will be accepted after this date. This exam is worth 40 points. Each question is worth a variable number of points. As should be obvious, those with a higher point value will be scrutinized at a higher level. Submissions must be uploaded to the drop box designated for the final exam. Feedback and grade will be provided via individual emails.
