A musical film is a genre of movie where songs sung by characters are added into the storyline, occasionally complemented by choreography. The musical numbers in these films do not always develop the plot and characters, but they do give the films a more exciting quality. The primary difference between musical theatre and film musicals is the use of extravagant scenery that would be extraordinarily unreasonable for a stage performance. While making movies, the individuals involved have the luxury of being able to shoot multiple takes and have the time to move backgrounds around or change their entire location. Stage performances, on the other hand, must have scenery that can be easily and efficiently moved on and offstage when it is needed. In order to be able to thoroughly comprehend this relatively recent- in the grand scheme of things- form of entertainment, one should understand the history behind these musical films, be aware of some of the “big names” that are well-known, and recognize major titles that revolutionized musical film forever (Scaruffi, P., 2005).
Before being able to completely appreciate musical films, one must be aware of their remarkable history and how they came into existence. According to an article written by Cara Schreffler:
Eating Christmas In the Kalahari Article Questions: 1. 2. 3. 4. What is the basis Of the misunderstanding experienced by Lee when he gave an ox for the Christmas feast held by the Kung? The basis Of misunderstanding around the ox was that the ox was big, but had no meat. The ox was an older ox so therefore most Of its meat was gone, it was just skin and bones. And if they didn't get enough to eat, no one would have the energy to get up and dance and enjoy the festivities. But in the end the ox was perfect, it was full Of fat and full Of meat that would be enjoyed by everyone for two nights. And the bones could even be used to make soup for other tribe members.

What is the basis Of the misunderstanding experienced by Lee when he gave an ox for the
Christmas feast held by the Kung?
The basis Of misunderstanding around the ox was that the ox was big, but had no meat.
The ox was an older ox so therefore most Of its meat was gone, it was just skin and
bones. And if they didn't get enough to eat, no one would have the energy to get up and
dance and enjoy the festivities. But in the end the ox was perfect, it was full Of fat and
full Of meat that would be enjoyed by everyone for two nights. And the bones could
even be used to make soup for other tribe members.
Why do you think the Kung ridicule and denigrate people who have been successful hunters or
who have provided them with a Christmas ox? Why do Americans expect people to be grateful
to receive gifts?
• I thought it was interesting that they ridiculed him for being a successful hunter. But
they do it with good intentions, I think it's a great idea because you want the gift giver
to be humble and kind. You don't want the person providing the gift to be in their head

return, it is about doing something good and expecting nothing in return. I think we as
Americans are used to people being grateful for getting a gift, but grateful in the sense
that they will return the favor. I am not very big on gifts, I love giving them, but I don't
feel the need to receive them, and I don't think anyone should ever feel obligated to

Chem. Lab 7
1. What is the color ofbromophenol blue in an acid? In a base?
It is colored yellow in acid and blue in a base.
2. How did you get the solution to change from blue to yellow?
The pH level change affected the change in colors. Low levels Of C02 or acid in solution
with bromothymol blue indicator will appear blue. As the level Of C02 or acid increases,
it will allow the solution to adopt a yellow hue.
3. Why did the solution change from blue to yellow (What chemical reaction happened)?
The chemical reaction is called an indicator.
4. How did you get the solution to change from yellow to blue?
The reaction was reversed.
5. Why did the solution change from yellow to blue (What chemical reaction happened)?
Since the reaction was reversed the solution changed colors, and this is known as an
indicator.
6. After Procedure Step 3, the solution in Well Al was in equilibrium. What happened to the
solution in Well Al during Procedure Step 5? Did the equilibrium shift? Explain this on the basis
Of the Le Chatelier Principle?
Le Chateliers prmciple states that the concentration Of a product is reduced in a chemical
reaction that was in equilibrium. The equilibrium shifts to the right to favor the formation
Of products. Le Chateliers principle says that chemical reactions in equilibrium
experience a disturbance in the reaction conditions that will make the equilibrium to shift
in the opposing direction Of the change to restore the steady-state. If the concentration Of
a product is reduced, the equilibrium will shift to the left to try to restore the initial
amount Of product and achieve the steady-state again.

7. Why did the colors in the Wells A1 and A3 change a second time in Procedure Steps 7 and 8?
Was this because Of reversible reactions?
Yes, due to the nature ofthe reaction.

How is it that Sethe can now relate to Baby Suggs contemplation Of color? (237)
In her final days, Baby Suggs pondered color because she "never had time" before. As
an ex-slave and an oppressed individual, Baby Suggs lived in a world Of black and white,
figuratively and literally. African Americans also never had a sense Of ownership Of
anything, so when she had come to rest, she finally could appreciate colors the world
had to offer. This is also the result Of the murder Of Beloved, which essentially destroyed
Baby Suggs. She pondered all the colors, but could never get to red, most likely
because it reminded her Of Beloved's blood at the time Of her death.
What happened to Sethe's mother's face? Interpret this both literally and
symbolically. (240)
Sethe's mother had worn the bit so many times, that it disfigured her face into looking as
if she had a permanent smile. However, this has symbolic significance because she
appeared to smile, even when she was not smiling. This represents the taking away Of
her vitality and Of her happiness by the white slave masters. It also may represent an
irony, in which she wished to be happy, but in reality, was living a terrible life.
What's a Saturday girl, and how is Sethe saved from being one? (240-241)
Saturday girl is a girl who works at the local slaughterhouse on Saturdays. She almost
became one herself following her release from jail, as a way to pay for Beloved's
headstone. However, the Bodwins save her from this fate by getting her a cooking job at
Sawyer's restaurant.
What's significant about Baby Suggs getting knocked down in the Misery?
(246-247)
Baby Suggs was always afraid Of getting knocked down by a white man in front Of her
children. She didn't want her kids to see her get knocked down because it would make
them go crazy. However, Suggs witnessed whitemen take down Sethe and subsequently
got knocked down by white men. She became depressed. Baby Suggs lost her
happiness and pride at this moment where she lost to white men.
Why does Denver think Beloved belongs to her (and though it isn't written, there's
a suggestion Of
exclusivity)? (247)
Denver believes Beloved belongs to her and only her because Of their past together.
Denver drank Beloved's blood in the process Of being breastfed. She was the only one
to accompany Beloved with a favorable attitude when she was merely a Ionesome spirit
in the house. Denver believes that this formed an unbreakable connection between the
two Of them.
What accounts for the shift in style Of these three chapters? Who narrates each
one, and what effect is achieved? (235-256) (hint: see last paragraph on p. 235)
****** Result for Image/Page 2 ******

There is a shift between the past chapters and these three as these parts specifically
divulge the thoughts Of the women Of 124. These are more streams-of-consciousness,
rather than narration Of the past. Each Of these chapters are narrated by a different
person. Sethe narrates the first one, Denver the second, and Beloved the third.
What are some Of the atrocities committed, during the cramped boat ride
described in Beloved's stream-of-consciousness chapter?
The slaves depicted in this chapter are left dehydrated and without water. T hey can't
even cry because their bodies are so deprived Of it. T hey get thrown into the ocean, and
are put into chained collars in a way that is much less than humane.
Why is Sixo laughing at his execution? What does he mean by "Seven-O"?
(266-270)
Sixo is laughing at his execution because he knows that his lover, Thirty-Mile woman
has escaped with his unborn baby, "Seven-O". While he is going to die, he knows that a
part Of him will still live on in his unborn baby.
9. What's the irony behind Stamp Paid's wife's name? (look up "Queen Vashti" on
the Internet)
Queen Vashti was Queen Of Persia and the first wife Of Persian King Ahasuerus. She is
viewed as an independent-minded heroine in feminist interpretations Of the Purim story as
she was banished for her refusal to appear at the king's banquet to show her beauty as the
king wished. Stamp Paid's wife's name is ironic because she did not stand up for herself
when she was forced to have sex with someone who was not Stamp Paid.
IO. What's the meaning behind Sethe's physical transformation? (280-281)
Sethe becomes very small and skinny as Beloved grows larger, almost on the verge Of
looking pregnant. It represents how her daughter is pulling out her spirit and even
physical presence to further herself. Essentially, as Sethe is being drained, Beloved is
almost absorbing all Of her.
11. Why does Denver have such difficulty leaving 124? How do Suggs words
inspire her? (286-288)
Denver has difficulty leave 124 because she has not left in a long time and she does not
know anyone who can help her besides Lady Jones and Stamp Paid. She is also afraid
Of encountering white people after hearing about all Of the horrible things that some Of
them have done.
12. What is meant by Denver's inauguration into the world as a woman? (292)
Up until this point, every interaction and experience that Denver has had has been
immature. Currently, she is being forced to be responsible and take care Of her other
family members. This push to be independent and actually ask others for help shows her
development into a mature woman.
****** Result for Image/Page 3 ******
13. How is the community around 124 a "sweet thorny place"?
The community is sweet yet thorny because they have ostracized Sethe and her family
for many years after What happened in the shed. However, even though they have
harbored a certain resentment against them for many years, they still come together to
help Sethe expel a potentially evil spirit from her home.
14. What, ultimately, was Sethe trying to protect Beloved (and all Of her family)
from? (295)
Sethe was trying to protect all Of her family from being taken into slavery once again.
Once she mistook Edward for school teacher (a white and very unforgiving slave
master), she jumped into action in a different way than she had eighteen years ago.
Instead Of mercy killing her children, she instead chose to act out against this potential
intruder and fight him off with an ice pick.
15. How could Sethe, according to Denver, not want Beloved's forgiveness, but
her refusal? (297)
Denver saw how badly Sethe felt for What she did to Beloved when she was a
child. She believes that Sethe was not seeking forgiveness because she wanted to have
the punishment she thought she deserved for killing her child. In a parallel to Crime and
Punishment, readers saw how Sethe needed that release, the punishment for her deeds.
16. How does Ella claim to understand what Sethe did in the shed? (301-302, 305)
Ella understands the rage that Sethe had in that situation, just not her reaction to it. As a
slave, she was used by a father and son, so she was very well aware Of the atrocities
that were regularly committed, and understood why she wouldn't want her daughter
going there, but she believed the reaction to be prideful and misdirected.
17. In answer to Paul D.'s question about Beloved being her sister, Denver says,
"At times I think she was—more." How was she "more"? (314)
After Beloved has gone, Denver realizes that she was never just a normal girl
that had returned to her family. When she tells Paul D that she thinks she was something
more she means that in the supernatural sense. She had seen Beloved fall apart at
times and exert her influence on others- even suck the life out Of Sethe. She knew that
Beloved was something more because these unnatural occurrences that she reflected
upon simply had no other explanation.
18. What favor does Paul return to Sethe, in their meeting in Baby Suggs'
bedroom? (322)
Paul D restores Sethe's will to keep going when she believes the only thing worth caring
about is gone. Instead Of leaving her to fend for herself and her sanity, he wishes to put
his own story next to hers, and be one with her.
19. What spirit is being described in the final chapter? Consider both a literal and
****** Result for Image/Page 4 ******
symbolic (metaphorical) interpretation. How does this tie into the novel's second
epigraph? (323-324, epigraphs)
The spirit being described in the last paragraph is that Of Beloved. I think the
overall metaphor is not only about Beloved but about all the pain, history, and suffering
endured by black people. This novel highlighted the struggles Of African Americans, and
Beloved herself seemed to encompass not only the spirit Of the dead child, but the spirits
Of all people dating back to slaves in the Middle Passage.
Beloved Questions (Pg. 174-235)
What's the inferred connection between the four horsemen who come for
Sethe, and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (biblical allusion, do a
search online to learn more information)? (174-175, Revelations 6:1-8)
The arrival of the Four Horsemen in the Bible imply the arrival of the apocalypse. The
Four Horsemen in this part of the book are from Sweet Home, Sethe's former slave
plantation. Their arrival implies they will soon recapture slaves, authorized under the
Fugitive Slave Act. Connecting this with the Bible, the arrival of these four men imply
the end of Sethe's world - her own apocalypse. These men will take her children away
from her, and they will hurt her children. There is nothing worse than this to Sethe, and
so she turns to set her plan in action.
2. How does Schoolteacher internalize the actions Sethe has committed against
her children? (176)
Instead of actually feeling guilt and sorry for the action Sethe has committed, he sees it
as a liability. He is angry with his nephew for having tortured Sethe as badly as he did
because he feels as though she, and all slaves, are animals that he has the
responsibility of keeping from acting like so. He sees Sethe's actions as her going crazy
and thinks about what he has lost- a breeding machine and four slaves.
3. What "kind of confusion" had the uncle (Schoolteacher) warned his nephew
about?
The "kind of confusion" that schoolteacher warned his nephew about was empathy for
the slaves, or in other terms, confusing them for human beings. In his eyes, they were
subhuman, property even, and so he did not want his nephew confusing them as
anything more, as he was showing signs of discomfort whenever Sethe was beat.
4. Analyze the flaws in the argument found at the bottom of p. 177, which
summarizes the ideology of those supporting slavery. ("All testimony to .„")
This argument is that white people are doing some kind of service to society by owning
slaves. They believe, through their own sinister actions, they are taking care of people
who are so animalistic, they cannot survive on their own. Clearly, this is morally and
absolutely wrong in all senses of the word. Claiming that owning other people is for
****** Result for Image/Page 2 ******
their own good is some twisted way of justifying the most evil thing in history.
5. What event is revealed in this section that shows how Denver might have
such a keen sensitivity towards Beloved?
It is revealed that Denver breastfed from her mother while she was covered in
Beloved's blood. Therefore, she ingested some of her blood, strengthening their bond
even further.
6. Why was Paul so dismissive about seeing Sethe's picture in the newspaper?
(182-183) What about his repeated denial of her expression? (182-184, 90)
Paul D was dismissive about seeing her face in the paper because he was unable to
believe that it was her. He was not able to imagine that she had committed a crime of
that gravity. He claimed, repeatedly, that those were not her lips. It could be simply
because he normally views her in a loving and tender way. To see her mouth in an evil
context threw him for a loop.
7. What is "The Look" and why was no warning given to 124? (184-185)
"The Look" is an expression held by white men often looking to oppress or capture
Blacks or former slaves. In this occasion, the four horsemen entering the town have
"The Look," as it is later revealed that they have come to recapture Sethe and her
children. The townspeople do not give warning to 124 because they are still upset after
the whoop. They are frustrated and jealous at the abundance provided to them at
Suggs' party, that they feel no need to warn 124 about the coming slave catchers.
8. What does Paul D. mean by calling Sethe's love "too thick?" (193-194)
Paul D meant that Sethe loves her children too much. Her ability to not see right and
wrong in a situation because she was clouded by love is dangerous. He does not seem
willing to try to understand why she did what she did. Paul simply dismisses it as
overbearing and unnecessary, not to mention wrong.
9. How does Sethe justify her decision to slay her children? (190-194)
Sethe wanted to kill her children when she had heard that slave captors were coming
for her, so that they would never have to experience the horrors of slavery as she had.
She did not want her children to live a life worse than death. She thought that they
****** Result for Image/Page 3 ******
would be safe in God's hands.
10. What's the Fugitive Bill? How does it explain, in part, the indifference of the
community around 124 to helping Sethe avoid her captors? Using the Internet
or an encyclopedia, learn more about the Fugitive Slave Act and the
Compromise of 1850. (201)
The fugitive bill made all citizens help in the capture of escaped slaves. In order to avoid
having Beloved put into slavery, Sethe resorted to killing her in order to avoid the
captors.
11. Why is Stamp Paid unwilling or unable to knock on Sethe's door? (202-203)
Since Stamp Paid helps many slaves, he always expects just one thing in return: for
their homes to be open to him. He likes to be welcomed and feel as though everyone's
family is his own. However, as he tries to knock on Sethe's doors, he hears these voices
and sound that is unwelcoming. He was bothered by this, and he also felt guilty for
telling Paul D about what Sethe had done.
12.1nterpret Suggs final choice, the contemplation of color, metaphorically. How
is this fitting? (208-209)
Suggs' final choice is metaphorically fitting because of the issues of race that were
prevalent at the time. As a black woman herself, to spend the rest of her life
contemplating the effect that issues of race had on her life was extremely appropriate,
especially considering the fact that they had just ripped away her daughter and
granddaughter away from her. Her choice is very much a reflection of a broken and
tired woman who simply wants to rest.
13. VMhy does Stamp Paid begin to identify with Baby Suggs and her tiredness?
(216-217)
Stamp Paid begins to identify with Baby Suggs and her tiredness as Baby Suggs
refused to go to the Clearing because she believed they had won but he refused to
acknowledge any such victory.
14.iNhy does Stamp Paid feel he owes no debts to anyone? (218)
Stamp Paid feels that he owes no debts to anyone because he had to sacrifice his own
****** Result for Image/Page 4 ******
wife when he was younger. She was given to a different, harsher slave owner. After the
world took the one thing he loved the most, his debts are completely paid for the rest of
his life.
15.How is Stamp Paid's former name significant? Hint: it's a biblical allusion.
Read a brief online or encyclopedia summary. (218, online)
Stamp Paid's original name is Joshua. In the bible, Joshua is who takes over and leads
the Israelites into the Promised Land after Moses' death. It is significant because in
some sense, Stamp Paid is the same, taking slaves to the "Promised Land" of their own
- freedom.
16.Why does Stamp Paid get riled up over hearing about Paul D.'s living
conditions? (219-220)
Stamp Paid gets angered when he hears about Paul D's living conditions. After leaving
Sethe, Paul D has been sleeping in the local church. No black men/women were willing
to offer him a home, showing this lack of community among them.
17.VMhat does the incident between Schoolteacher and Sixo say about justice?
(224-225)
Justice does not exist for a slave, or for any oppressed person in this time. "Justice" is
something that is interpreted by the white masters, meaning that is never truly fair to
the slaves. As stated in the novel: "Clever, but schoolteacher beat him anyway to show
him that definitions belonged to the definers-- not the defined." doc

Endocrine System Lab
Assignment 1.
Endocrine glands function by releasing hormones that move through the blood to targets throughout
the body. The structures labeled A-J in Figure 2 are true endocrine glands; however, other tissues
and organs, like adipose tissue and your kidneys and heart, can also produce hormones. Identify the
endocrine glands in the figure and then match them with the hormone(s) they produce by writing the
correct letter.

What is the most frequent physical symptom of the disorders described above?
Fatigue, frequent urination and muscle weakness are the most common symptoms.
Why are blood tests used to diagnose endocrine disorders?
It shows the endocrine hormones, which can help the doctors determine a diagnosis if there
is one.
Why is it so important to consider age and sex when diagnosing an endocrine disorder?
A certain age can determine how much more likely it is to be diagnosed and sex determines
which certain hormones could be involved more often.
Case Study 1:
A 37-year-old woman goes to her doctor and complains of anxiety, muscle weakness, and
depression. Which of the disorders listed on the table above could explain her symptoms? What
other symptoms might you look for or what other tests might you run to distinguish between these
disorders?
****** Result for Image/Page 4 ******
Most likely "Cushing's Syndrome" and "Hypothyroidism". Both disorders have symptoms of muscle
weakness but Cushing's Syndrome includes anxiety and Hypothyroidism includes depression.
Further study would be done if she either has an irregular menstrual cycle or low body temperature
to distinguish the disorders.
Case Study 2:
A 34-year-old man complains he is tired a lot and he has lost a substantial amount of weight over
the past few months. A routine blood test shows low sodium levels, but his blood glucose levels are
normal. What test would you order next? Why? What results could help you make a diagnosis?
The test order should be "Addison's Disease" due to fatigue and muscle weakness, and check for
any change in pigment in the skin that increased. The results would come back with low sodium,
high potassium, high ACT H, low cortisol in the blood.
Case Study 3:
Your patient is a 28-year-old woman who has complained of menstrual irregularities and infertility
despite actively trying to get pregnant for 14 months. She also mentioned that she has to wax her
face a lot due to hair growth. How would you diagnose this patient? Which lab result may explain the
hair growth? What does this patient have to be careful of developing in the future?
I would diagnose this person with PCOS because of the elevated levels of testosterone would
explain the hair growth. This patient has to be careful of gaining weight and controlling levels of
glucose in the future.
Case Study 4:
A seemingly healthy 42-year-old-man comes into the ED with a broken arm. The doctor set the bone

Overall there were fewer saccades than words for each line. This
could have been caused by the ability to group easier words
together that require less effort.
b.) Is the average time interval between saccades different
when reading an easy passage vs. a challenging passage?
Explain
Yes, the average time interval between saccades was larger for
the challenging passage because complex words require more
time to process.
c.) Is the average time interval between saccades different
when reading the same passage silently vs. aloud?
Yes, the average time interval is larger for reading aloud as it
takes more time to read, process, and pronounce the word than
just passive reading.
d.) Are the waveform shapes different between Read Silently
2 and Read Aloud data? Explain
Yes, the read aloud data had longer periods between each wave
and generally more saccades in each wave.

The cycles consistently decreased during vertical tracking. They
should have remained constant as the object was being moved
the same distance for the trial.
d.) Do the cycle periods increase, decrease, or remain
constant during simulated vertical tracking? Explain
The cycles increased and decreased with no significant pattern.
The subject had no object to focus on, relying on prediction
introduced errors.
e.) Are the waveform shapes different between vertical
tracking and simulated vertical tracking data? Explain
Vertical tracking had well rounded peas and periodic waveforms,
simulated vertical tracking had waveforms with rough and jerky
peaks and varying periods.

It remained fairly constant, because of the periodic motion of a
pendulum, which is caused by the constant acceleration of
gravity.
d.) Did the time interval (period) of each successive swing
cycle increase, decrease, or remain constant during
simulated movement? Explain
It varied unpredictably, increasing and decreasing at various
cycles. This could be caused by the attempt of the subject to
replicate a pendulum without stimulus.
e.) Are the waveform shapes different between tracking and
simulated tracking data? Explain
Yes, the tracking waveforms were smooth and periodical, while
the simulated tracking waveforms were rough and unpredictable.
I. Examine the data in Table 10.2 and answer the following
questions:
a.) Do the cycle amplitudes increase, decrease, or remain
constant during vertical tracking? Explain
The amplitude had erratic changes, I would have expected it to
remain constant since the object was moved the same distance
every time but our results seemed to have been affected by some
external factor.
b.) Do the cycle amplitudes increase, decrease, or remain
constant during simulated vertical tracking? Explain
The amplitude for the simulation had an unpredictable pattern
from cycle to cycle. This could be explained by the fact that the
subject's eyes didn't have an object to focus on.
c.) Do the cycle periods increase, decrease, or remain
constant during vertical tracking? Explain
The cycles consistently decreased during vertical tracking. They
should have remained constant as the object was being moved

How many positive ions will have been brought into the cell after 5 cycles of the
pump? Ten positive ions will be brought inside the cell.
What is the difference in positive ions between the inside and the outside of the
cell after 5 cycles? The difference ions will be brought inside the cell.
What is the difference in positive ions between the inside and the outside of the
cell after 70 cycles? After 70 cycles the difference is -70.
Imagine instead of pumping ions, we are pumping dollars. Is the cell spending more
(pumping out) than it brings in? Yes, the cell is spending more pumping out than it brings
in.
a.
Application
If you spend more than you bring in, what happens to your bank balance? If you
spend more than you bring, your bank balance becomes negative.
5. In the space below draw a line to represent the cell membrane. Label one side 'inside' and the
other side 'outside'. Place + symbols on the side of the membrane that would have the positive
bank account (according to our analogy above) and put — symbols on the side of the membrane
that would have the negative bank balance.

6. Place a large + sign on the side of the membrane with the most positive charges and a — sign
on the side of the membrane with the least number of positive charges. Positive charge should
be on the outside of the cell and negative charge on the inside.
7. Where are most of the sodium ions, inside or outside the cell? Most of the Na+ are outside of
the cell.
8. If the channel were to open, which way would sodium travel through the channel based on the
laws of diffusion? Based on the laws of diffusion, Na+ would travel into the cell down the
concentration gradient.

9. What effect would this have on the membrane potential (the difference in charge across the
membrane)?
If large amounts ofNa+ started to move into the cell, it would make the
membrane potential less negative on the inside.

10. This chart shows the resting membrane potential of a nerve cell. Notice that the line is
running at around -70 millivolts.
The resting membrane potential has a negative value. Based on what we've
a.
already learned - is this measuring the inside or outside of the cell? [i.e. which one is
negative with respect to the other?]
The negative value for the membrane potential is
measuring the inside of the cell.
b.
If a sodium channel opens, will the inside of the cell become more positive or
more negative as the sodium ions come in along their concentration gradient?
If a Na+
channel open, the inside of the cell will become more positive.
Based on your answer to 'a' and 'b', extend the line in the chart to show what
c.
might happen to the potential when sodium channels open. The membrane will become
depolarized.

Before the sodium channel opened, the membrane was polarized, like a battery (a
positive and negative side). After opening the sodium channel, is the cell going to be
polarized anymore? After opening the sodium channel, the cell is no longer polarized
with a positive side and a negative side.

11. What has changed about the sodium channel in this model (compared to model 2)? In the
model 3 the sodium channel is open, and model two is not.
12. How does the number of positive ions inside the cell compare with the number outside the
cell? Now the number of positive ions on the two sides of the cell are the same.

13. Compare this model to model 2 which contained a polarized membrane. Based on the ion
distribution in these two models, devise definitions as a group, for the following: Polarized:
when there is a charge difference on the two sides of the membrane.
Depolarized: When there is not a charge difference on the two sides of the membrane.
Application
14. Based on the concentration of potassium ions inside and outside the cell, which way do you
think K+ ions would go if the potassium ion channel were to open and the sodium channel
were to close? [hint: draw it if you need to] If K+ channels were to open and Na+ channels
were to close, K+ would go out of the cell.
15. Would this depolarize or repolarize the membrane? If K+ begins to move out the cell, once
again there will be more positive charges on the outside of the cell and this will repolarize.

L. Glycerol, C3H803, is a nonvolatile nonelectrolyte with a density of 1.26 g/mL at 25 oc. Calculate the vapour pressure at 25 oc of a solution made by adding 50.0 mL of glycerin to 500.0 mL of water. The vapor pressure of pure water at 250C is 23.8 torr. Summarising the given information: V(G1ycer01) = 50 mL = 0.05 L V(H20) = 500 mL = 0.5 L T = 25 oc Density(C3H803) = 1.26 g/mL at T = 25 oc PO(Glycerol) = 0 (because glycerol is non-volatile) PO(H20) = 23.8 torr The vapour pressure of the mixture will be entirely due to H20. From Raoult's Law: P(H20) = X(H20) x PO(H20) Where X(H20) is the mole fraction of 1--120. we need the mole fraction of H20. we need to calculate moles of glycerol and H20. mass(glycerol) = 50 mL x 1.26 g/mL = 63 g MW(g1ycer01) = 92.1 g/mol n(glycerol) = 63 + 92.1 = 0.684 mol mass(H20) = 500 g (Iml = lg at 25 00 MW(H20) = 18.0 g/mol = 500 + 18.0 = 27.8 mol X(H20) = 27.8 + (27.8 + 0.684) = 0.976 Applying Raoults law: P(H20) = 0.976 x 23.8 torr = 23.2 torr The vapour pressure of the solution is 23.2 torr. 2. Seawater is about 3.5% (by weight) dissolved solids, almost all of which is NaCl. Calculate the normal boiling point of seawater. The boiling point elevation constant Kb(H20) = 0.51 oc m-l To calculate boiling point elevation: ATb = i x Kb xm 3.5% by weight NaC1 = 3.5 g in 96.5 g H20 (i.e. 0.0965 kg) mass(NaCl) = 3.5 g MW(NaC1) = 58.44 g/mol n(NaC1) = 3.5 + 58.44 = 0.0599 mol m(NaC1) = 0.0599 + 0.0965 = 0.621 m The Van 't Hoff factor i for NaCl is 2 (assuming complete dissociation of Na+ and Cl- ions) ATb = 2 x 0.51 x 0.621 = 0.63 oc. • the boiling point of seawater = 100 + 0.63 = 100.63 oc. 3. The average osmotic pressure of blood is 7.7 atm at 25 oc. What concentration of glucose, C6H1206, will be isotonic with blood? Osmotic pressure = i x [MI x R x T where i = the Van 't Hoff factor [MI = concentration (Molar) R = Ideal gas constant T = Temperature (absolute scale) Given =7.7 atm = 780 kPa T = 25 oc = 298 K R = 8.314 L kPa K-1 mol-l i = 1 for glucose Need to solve for [glucose] [glucose] + (1 x 8.314 x 298) = 0.31 mol L-1 (Notice that units of kPa and K-l cancel) 4. The vapour pressure of water at 25 oc is 3167 Pa. A solution consisting of 18.913 grams of a non-volatile substance in 36 grams of water has a vapour pressure of 2697.6 Pa. What is the molecular weight of the solute? Given: PO(H20) = 3167 Pa mass(H20) = 36 g MW(H20) = 18.0 g mol-l mass(NVS) = 18.913 g (NV S is non-volatile substance) T = 25 oc P(H20) = 2697.6 Pa Use Raoult's Law: P(H20) = X(H20) x PO(H20) to solve for X(H20): X(H20) = P(H20) + PO(H20) = 2697.6 + 3167 = 0.8518 • mole fraction X of Nvs = 1 - 0.8518 = 0.1482 n(H20) = mass + MW = 36 + 18.0 = 2 mol X(NVS) = n(NVS) + {n(NVS) + n(H20)} • 0.1482 = n(NVS) + {n(NVS) + 2} • 0.1482 x {n(NVS) +2} = n(NVS) • 0.1482 x n(NVS) + 0.2964 = n(NVS) • 0.2964 = n(NVS) - 0.1482 x n(NVS) • 0.2964 = n(NVS) x 0.8518 n(NVS) = 0.2964 + 0.8518 = 0.3480 mol Using the mass, we can calculate MW(NVS): MW(NVS) = m(NVS) + n(NVS) = 18.913 + 0.3480 = 54.32 g mol-l
