After waiting for 30 minutes sharp, we measured the bags again and saw significant increases in mass for five out of the six dialysis bags. The orange solution did increase, but it was only a mere 1.47 percent change in mass. From this collected data, we were able to hypothesize which colored solution was which concentration. The order of the colors of solutions from least concentrated to most concentrated was: orange, green, yellow, blue, pink, and purple. How we were able to figure this out was because we knew that because of the solutions’ (except water) hypertonic nature, more water would rush in through the dialysis bags as the concentration increased.
Additionally, the perceived hypovolumic status causes the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) from the posterior pituitary. ADH increases water reabsorption in the kidneys, which further contributes to increased volume and increased BP (McCance & Huether, 2010). 2.) What tests indicate glomerular function? Serum creatinine concentration, cystatin C plasma concentration, and BUN levels indicate glomerular function (McCance & Huether, 2010).
You correctly answered: d. oxygen level in the blood 4.

You want your LDL to be high and HDL to be low ("High cholesterol Definition - Diseases and Conditions - Mayo Clinic," 2014). The test we perform to check cholesterol levels will measure triglycerides, cholesterol, HDL, and LDL for a complete look at cholesterol ("Triglycerides: Why do they matter? - Mayo Clinic," 2012). Triglycerides are a type of fat or lipid that is found in your blood and can up your risk of heart disease. When you eat, your body automatically turns any calories it doesn’t currently need into triglycerides and stores it in your fat cells to use for energy in between meals.
Eating ¼-cup of red-skimmed peanuts w/your meal provides the same amount of antioxidants. Rose hip powder blocks fat buildup – enjoying 1 T. of this sweet, fruity ‘n slightly tart powder (mix it into smoothies, yogurt or other food) helps block the fat storage that triggers high blood sugar ‘n insulin resistance. Rose hip powder inhibits fat formation in the liver. TIPS: if u prefer, dissolve the powder in a cup of boiling water ‘n drink it as a tea. Fish protects your heart – people who eat at least (3) three fish meals weekly have more heart-healthy HDL cholesterol levels in their blood than less frequent fish eaters.
Pancreatic cancer develops after a pancreatic cell replicates differently, just any other organ cancers. If the cell replicates continuously, a tumor will develop. High fructose corn syrup causes blood glucose and insulin levels to raise highly. When the body has high levels of insulin on pancreatic cells it may increase the growth and division of precancerous cells, promoting their growth and life span. “Also, a test tube study published in the August 2010 issue of "Cancer Research" notes that pancreatic cancer cells prefer to use fructose as fuel, promoting cancer cell growth” (Devon).
From this we gathered that there was a lot of fat within the McMush. When looking back on the experiment, I personally believe that our results are accurate
Research Summary and Ethical Considerations KathyKeehn Grand Canyon University: NRS 433V-0101 March 20, 2015 Introduction Epoetin alfa is a man made drug used for treating anemia. (Lippincott, 2006) Erythropoietin is a protein made in the body by the kidney that helps the bone marrow to produce oxygen carrying red blood cells. (Harrison, 1983). In a healthy body, when there is a decrease in red blood cells or a decrease in the supply of oxygen, an increased amount of erythropoietin is made which in turn increases the red blood cells. In end stage renal disease (ESRD) anemia is common because this mechanism is not working.
Explain your results with reference to the concentration of respiratory gases. The body constantly produces CO2 as a by-product of the metabolic energy production. Normally carbon dioxide is carried to the lungs by the blood and is expelled though exhalation. However, holding your breath increases the concentration of CO2 in the bloodstream which can cause suffocation, or feel unconscious. One of the most common causes of hyperventilating is high levels of oxygen in the blood.
Conclusion Throughout this lab, my partners and myself were searching to prove how much the different increments would affect the oxygen production. In my hypothesis, I explained that more oxygen would be produced with more hydrogen peroxide, because the catalase enzyme would have more hydrogen and oxygen liquid, for the catalyst to create water and oxygen. Once the catalase doesn’t have anything to break down, it takes for time, and eventually stops, because there are no more reactants. In our results, we had three concentrations that produced 100 cm3 of O2 and the two others, reached the time limit of 6 minutes, 360 seconds, and weren’t measured regarding time. I noticed that all the numbers were in a very close range during all five trials, and none of them had outliers.
