Which of the following is the best definition of the term amphibolic pathway?
| An amphibolic pathway is one that functions simultaneously in catabolism and anabolism. |
| An amphibolic pathway is a pathway that is found in both humans and bacteria. |
| An amphibolic pathway is one that can catabolize both pentose and hexose sugars. |
| An amphibolic pathway is one that generates ATP using both substrate level phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation. |
Choose the true statement(s) about biochemical tests. To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true statements, as there may be more than one correct answer.
| Biochemical tests are only performed on pathogens. |
| A biochemical test can detect what enzymes a bacterium makes. |
| A biochemical test may detect intermediates or end-products in a pathway. |
| The Gram stain is an example of a biochemical test. |
Your patient comes to you with typical signs of pneumonia: high fever, shortness of breath, and persistent cough. Several tests are performed to determine the causative agent of disease. You observe that you are unable to culture the microbe using standard microbiological media (such as nutrient agar). Furthermore, use of fluorescent probes reveals that the pathogen has a genome composed of stranded RNA. Which of the following microorganisms are you most likely observing?
| Fungus |
| Bacterium |
| Virus |
| Prion |
|
Total value of expiratory breath at rest |
Tidal volume (total volume of breaths at rest divided by number of breaths taken) |
Expiratory reserve volume |
|
5.4 |
1.8 |
2 |

Answer to the 1st question will be
The best definition of the term amphibolic pathway is
An amphibolic pathway is one that function simultaneously in catabolism and anabolism..
Answer to the 2nd question is
The true statements about biochemical test are
A biochemical test can detect what enzyme a bacterium make..
The Gram stain is an example of biochemical test..
The statement that the biochemical test are only performed on pathogens is not true..it is because the biochemical test are also used for non pathogenic bacteria for identification of their species or character..
Answer to the 3rd question will be
The microorganisms we are most likely observing should be Virus..
It is because the bacteria and fungus can be grown in agar media..
Virus requires special cell-culture media for its growth..
Whereas prions doesn't have RNA , it has only proteinaceous material which is infectious..
Last question answer will be
After expelling the expiratory reserve volume, some amount of air always remain in subjects lungs...
The lungs never get fully empty of air..some amount of air always remain in them which cannot expire by forceful expiration also..These amount of air is called Residual volume of lung ..
These residual volume of air prevents lungs from sticking together or from collapsing..So these volume of air is very important..
Which of the following is the best definition of the term amphibolic pathway? An amphibolic pathway...
Medical Report Assignment #1 The assignment: you are a general medical doctor, and you must prepare a History & Physical and write some prescriptions based on the information below. The information is not in the correct order for the report, so you will need to put it in the correct order. You can use the History & Physical on page 42 in the textbook as a general guide, as well as the lectures, but your History & Physical must follow...
