Question 2 options: Release of excessive amounts of the mineralocorticoids, can be caused by a tumor in the adrenal gland or increased growth of normal cells affecting the adrenal cortex, leading to unusually high blood pressure. An adrenal gland tumor causing high blood pressure is because Question 4 options: of an increase in ADH production of an decrease in ADH production aldosterone promotes reabsorption of sodium ions and water into the body aldosterone promotes loss of sodium ions and water from the body Action potentials in neurons are also known as "nerve impulses" and are a temporal sequence of action potentials. A neuron that emits an action potential, or nerve impulse, is often said to "fire". A nerve impulse occurs when Question 5 options: the resting transmembrane potential is constant at -70mV the transmembrane potential becomes less than the resting potential K+ diffuse out of the neural fibre Na+ diffuse out of the neural fibre Which of the following pathways correctly shows the sequence of stimulations initiated by the hypothalamus that leads to the production of the long-term stress hormone?

The absence of a fully functional myelin sheath causes Question 7 options: abnormal functioning of the sodium-potassium exchange pump an increase in the amount of saltatory conduction an attack on the Schwann cells by the immune system neural impulses to travel more slowly than normal Use the following information to answer the next question. Dinitrophenol (DNP) is a chemical that interferes with the production of ATP in a cell. DNP acts as a protonophore, allowing protons to leak across the inner mitochondrial membrane and thus bypass ATP synthase. This makes ATP energy production less efficient. In effect, part of the energy that is normally produced from cellular respiration is wasted as heat. The resting potential of a neuron treated with DNP would be _____mV. (Record your answer in the space provided) Question 8 options: Prolonged exposure to a very loud sound of a particular frequency results in selective hearing loss. For example, frequent exposure to the sound of jet engines would cause this form of deafness. After the deafness occurs, a person would no longer hear any sound having the same frequency as an engine. Sounds of higher or lower frequencies would still be heard. A likely explanation for this form of hearing loss is that Question 9 options: the hearing mechanism undergoes sensory adaptation to the sound. the hair cells at a particular location on the organ of Corti have been destroyed. the tympanum no longer vibrates in response to the sound. the ossicles no longer move because of damage from the sound.
