YOU NEED TO DO A DRAWING AND DO CALCULATIONS. DO NOT ANSWER THIS WITH A WRITTEN RESPOSE!!!!
A plan diagram is a simple drawing showing only the boundaries between the lumen, the columnar epithelium, the (areolar) connective tissue, the circular smooth muscle and the longitudinal smooth muscle. A plan diagram serves to illustrate the location and relative thickness of the various tissue layers.
1. Draw a plan diagram and label the following: • Longitudinal smooth muscle • Columnar epithelial tissue • Circular smooth muscle • Villi • Areolar connective tissue • Lumen
2. Calculate actual size and drawing magnification of the width of the intestine. Include formulae used and calculations.
3. Add a scale bar with actual size next to your diagram.
Give your drawing a descriptive title and record total magnification.
Attached are an example plan diagram labelled, as well as a…

- When William H. was helping victims after a devastating earthquake in a region not prepared to swiftly set up adequate temporary shelter, he developed severe diarrhea. He was diagnosed as having cholera, a disease transmitted through unsanitary water supplies contaminated by fecal material from infected indiv iduals. The toxin produced by cholera bacteria causes Cl- channels in the lurninal membranes of the intestinal cells to stay open, thereby increasing the secretion of Cl- from the cells into the intestinal tract lumen. By what mechanisms would Na+ and water be secreted into the lumen in conjunction with Cl- secretion? How does this secretory response account for the severe diarrhea that is characteristic of cholera?arrow_forwardObjective: Drawing a plan diagram of a frog intensine viewed under a microscope, as well as calculating actual size and drawing magnification of the width of the intestine. Please see the attached microscopic image of the frog intestine when viewed under the microscope, and an example labeled drawing of the intestine. I approximated that 3-4 cells would fit across (frog intenstine is much smaller when viewed under microscope, photo taken appears much longer). DO THE FOLLOWING BELOW STEPS: You need to complete a drawing. Please don't submit wrong answer. 1. Draw a plan diagram and label the following: • Longitudinal smooth muscle • Columnar epithelial tissue • Circular smooth muscle • Villi • Areolar connective tissue • Lumen 2. Calculate actual size and drawing magnification of the width of the intestine. Include formula used and calculations. 2. Add a scale bar with actual size next to the diagram. 3.

- Proteins that are trafficked through the secretory pathway of eukaryotic cells are never exposed directly to the cytoplasm. Which of the following is the best explanation for why this is true? A. Cells that specialize in protein secretion lack cytoplasm, because protein synthesis machinery takes up the volume of the cell instead. B. For a protein that will be secreted, during the whole time that it spends inside of the cell, it is enclosed within other membrane-bound compartments. C. While a protein is in the secretory pathway, it is surrounded by a dense cloud of ions that protect it from the cytoplasm. D. A protein that will be secreted is not synthesized by ribosomes in the cytoplasm; instead, it is synthesized by proteins at the plasma membrane and fed directly into the extracellular space.arrow_forwardFibroblasts are motile cells that “creep” about in the connective tissue of the body where they play a number of roles, including secretion of the extracellular matrix and initiating certain wound healing events. These cells do not usually have microvilli nor do they express the actin-binding protein villin; both of these properties are characteristic of certain epithelial cells, such as those lining the intestine and kidneys. Remarkably enough, however, if one artificially engineers fibroblast cells to produce the villin protein, microvilli form on the fibroblasts. Given what you know about the function of villin, why might this striking change in cell morphology occur?arrow_forwardName the 4 different cell-cell contacts that are important for eg the function of the intestinal epithelium Explain in general how each individual cell-cell contact works and how they contribute to the epithelium's resistance to pressure / tensile forcesarrow_forward

In this process, the membrane of the secretory vesicle becomes part of the cell membrane because small pieces of the membrane are continually added to the cell membrane, one would expect the cell membrane to become larger and larger as secretion continues. The cell membrane stays the same size, however. Explain how this happens.arrow_forward
