Anna went to her physician complaining of fatigue and swelling in her legs. She explained the doctor that she exercises often and does not drink water. She also revealed that she is smoker. Doctor sad that she was dehydrated, had edema and probably hypoproteinemia (low plasma protein concentration). He ordered some blood tests and ECG. ECG revealed that she had atrial fibrillation, which he said might explain her fatigue. Doctor advised her perhaps exercise more moderately, drink water and that she should definitely stop smoking. - How might a blood test help to diagnose the cause of Jessica’s fatigue and edema?
- How does her hypoproteinemia relate to her edema?
- How would dehydration influence blood volume, stroke volume, and cardiac output?
- What is atrial fibrillation, and how does it appear on an ECG?
- How might atrial fibrillation explain Anna’s fatigue?

For each of the following, decide whether the statement describes photosynthesis, cellular respiration, or both. releases energy in the form of atp. stores energy in glucose molecules. performed by producers. performed by consumers.

Considering the yellow and green pea color phenotypes studied by gregor mendel: a. what is the biochemical function of the protein that is specified by the gene responsible for the pea color phenotype? (1 point) b. a null allele of a gene is an allele that does not specify (or encode) any of the biochemical function that the gene normally provides (in other words, either no protein at all or only non-functional protein is produced from it). of the two alleles, y and y, which is more likely to be a null allele? (1 point) c. in terms of the underlying biochemistry, why is the y allele dominant to the y allele? (2 points) d. why are peas that are yy homozygotes green? (1 point) e. the amount of protein produced from a gene is roughly proportional to the number of functional copies of the gene carried by a cell or individual. what do the phenotypes of yy homozygotes, yy heterozygotes, and yy homozygotes tell us about the amount of sgr enzyme needed to produce a yellow color? explain your reasoning. (2 points)
