If Claire has a hematocrit of 24 and a plasma glucose concentration of 80 mg/dl, how much glucose does
she have in her plasma? - (answer)96 mg
Calculate the amount of K+ in plasma. Assume that the hematocrit is 50 and that there are 5 L of blood
in your patient. The MW of K+ is 35 g/mol. - (answer)12.5 mmol
During the flu season and during allergy season some physicians recommend using a nasal rinse. These
solutions are made with a buffer to regulate pH, and are hyper-tonic. Why would rinsing mucous

The decline in levels of progesterone and estrogen that accompany degeneration of the corpus luteum -
(answer)Results in menses or destruction of the functional zone of the endometrium.
Oocytes - (answer)Are produced in the ovary and enter uterine tube via the infundibulum, and implant
in the uterine wall if fertilization occurs.
What statement is correct? - (answer)1. The follicular phase of the ovarian cycle overlaps with the luteal
phase of the uterine cycle.
2. The two phases of the uterine cycle include follicular and luteal.
3. The three uterine phases include menses, proliferative, and secretory.
4. Follicular phases during the uterine cycle require LH and FSH which are secreted by the ovary.
(three)
Ovulation - (answer)Happens near the middle of the reproductive cycle when an oocyte is released by
the ovary into the uterine tube, where is can be fertilized during the next 12-24 hours.
What is the concentration of KCL if you dissolve 50 grams in 1L of water? The MW of KCl is 74 g/mol. -
(answer)0.67 M
What is a body fluid compartment? - (answer)Fluid compartments are 'spaces' separated by a
