Are we supposed to know the disorder the EKG represents? Also, are there chances that they would ask us a question similar to number 2?
1. creatinine, decreases (sorry if I wasn't clear in this question!)
2. wandering pacemaker
Other than that it looks good. We need to know how to read EKGs, so when I was studying that I also looked at different heart rhythms in case they'd show up on a test (which hasn't happened yet). Your turn!
1. 97% of erythrocytes is __________
2. What is the shape of erythrocytes and how does that affect/help them?
3. What does opsonization mean?
4. Liver contains a system of carrier molecules and enzymes which convert ammonia + ______ into urea.
1. Hemoglobin?
2. The biconcave disc shape increases the RBC's surface area and allows it to carry more oxygen.
3. Opsonization is the process in which antigens are tagged for destruction by phagocytes.
4. CO2

All correct, Your turn! Btw sorry for the late response.
1. The kidneys are located between the ___ and ___ vertebrae, partially protected by ribs __ and __.
2. List the three layers of the glomerular basement membrane.
3. What is obligatory reabsorption, and where does it take place in the nephron?
4. In the collecting duct, _____ _____ cells secrete hydrogen ions.
5. Joe is a healthy adult who exercises and has a healthy diet. One day, however, he decides to eat three bags of potato chips, which contain a lot of sodium. What hormone concentration in Joe's body would you expect to see increase after he finishes his chips and why?

1. T12 and L3, 11 and 12th
2. lamina externa, densa, and interna
3. water following solute reabsorption? and in the PCT
4. Intercalated
5. aldosterone to balance the sodium and water concentrations
For #3, obligatory reabsorption also occurs in the loop of henle through the countercurrent multiplier mechanism. Also, #4 is correct, but I was looking for something more specific like alpha intercalated cells.
Your turn!
