In Lab 3 you determined the rates of enzyme activity and fermentation. If we want to know how smoke products affect the rate of phagocytosis ie- how many vacuoles/ minute, we can measure vacuoles over time. Recall that the rate is the slope of the line: Rise/run (vacuoles/time) where there is a linear trend. What is the rate of phagocytosis for the cannabis treated cells? Average number of vacuoles/cell 12 90010 N 10 20 30 Time (minutes) 40 50 Control -e-cig --cannabis O a. 11 vacuoles/ 60 minutes b. 0.18 vacuoles/min c. 0.5 vacuoles/minute O d. 0.275 vacuoles/min Oe. 2 vacuoles/ min 60 70

You’ve made a 25 mM stock of colchicine (a tubulin inhibitor; dissolved in distilled water), which you’d like to use to study the effect of tubulin on phagocytosis in T.pyriformis. Based on published research articles that you’ve read, you’d like to preincubate T. pyriformis with colchicine at a final, effective concentration of 75 µM. Assuming you need 40 µL of the cell+colchicine mixture for your experiment, please explain how you can use your 25 mM solution of colchicine, T. pyriformis cells, and distilled water to create your cell+colchicine mixture.
