fluorescence test to decrease the no-specific binding. 2. Explain where the epitope (antigenic determinant) is located. The epitopes are located in the antigens for the antibodies binding. 3. Describe how a positive result is detected in this serological test. The elementary bodies of the Chlamydia trachomatis stains green inside the red host cell‚ and the presence of more elementary bodies in a field of view compared to the positive control is considered a positive result. 4. How would the

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 12 Serological Testing NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: Positive and Negative Controls 1. Why are there a number of washing steps in serological tests? They are needed in order to remove any non specific binding that may happen. 2. Describe how you would know that you had a “false positive” result. What does this mean for the rest of your results? If it has a negative control then it’s a false positive so the results are invalidated. 3. Describe how you would

Terms Definitions What activity are you simulating when you click the ERV button? What additional muscles are used? Maximal exhalation; internal intercostal and abdominal wall muscles What does the pump rate simulate? The number of beats per minute (BPM) stimulates respiratory rate How did changing the radius effect FEV (%)? FEV decreased in response to decrease in radius What effect does the addition of surfactant have on the airflow? AIrflow increases because resistance is reduced

Give one possible explanation for this. 2. Living at high elevations will cause a person’s hematocrit to ( *increase / decrease ). Explain your answer. 3. Long-term athletic training will cause a person’s hematocrit to ( *increase / decrease ). 4. What is anemia? Condition where inadequate

Activity 1 1. Size and concentration of the solute 2. It was too large to pass‚ as predicted 3. I predicted that the glucose would diffuse since it is small enough but the albumin is much too large to pass through the membrane. The experiment produced this result. Activity 2 1. Neither way requires ATP but facilitated diffusion requires carrier protein molecules for diffusion to occur. 2. By increasing the number of carriers more glucose can pass at a time increasing the rate‚

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 6 Cardiovascular Physiology NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: 1. Define each of the following terms: • autorhymicity- The heart is autorhythmic. This means it generates its own rhythmic action potential independent of the nervous system. • sinoatrial node- is the impulse-generating (pacemaker) tissue located in the right atrium of the heart‚ and thus the generator of normal sinus rhythm. • pacemaker cells- are specialized cells that cause involuntary muscles and tissues to
