Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 5CT
Luke started a training program at the beginning of the summer. For the first week, he jogged 1 mile. Each week after that, he increased the distance he jogged by about 0.5 mile and increased his speed. At the end of 2 months, he was able to jog 4.5 miles each day at a faster pease than he had been able to jog at the beginning of the summer. During the −month period, the muscle cells in his heart and his legs increased in size. Identify a critical membrane-bound organelle that increased a number and made it possible for Luke to run the longer distance. Also, explain how these organelles increased in number, and describe the location of the gentic code for the proteins in the organelles.

A muscle biopsy is taken after 12 days of heavy strength
training. The muscle cells appear to have a greater cross-
sectional area than before the training. What is the best
conclusion?
After 12 days of heavy strength training, muscle cells show
hypertrophy.
Muscle cells undergo hyperplasia after 12 days of strength
training.
Strength training does not cause any increase in muscle cell
volume.
Hyperplasia does not occur in muscle cells with heavy strength
training.
You are growing up myoblasts, C2C12 cells, to use in a myogenic study. You are using T-150 flasks with a culture area of 150 cm2 and when confluent contains 2 x 107 cells.
2) You seed a culture of squamous epithelial cells at 8 am on Monday with 1.2 x 105 cells. The next day at 8 am you harvest the cells. You know from past studies that the generation time is 26 hours for this cell line. How many cells do you predict you should have on hand?
A) 1.64 x 10^5 cells
B) 4.56 x 10^3 cells
C) 5.23 x 10^10 cells
D) 1.75 x 10^8 cells
E) None of these
You design a new matrix to regenerate skin during skin graft. The matrix have cells that need nutrients, such as glucose. You need to figure out the diffusion profile of glucose into the matrix. Assuming glucose has a radius of 1.0nm, you are interested in diffusion from the blood vessels into the matrix, which are 1cm away. The blood viscosity is 3cP, and the glucose concentration in the blood is 4mM. What is the initial flux of glucose? (use 1.38 * 10^-23 J/K for Boltzmann's constant).
