C. Ciliary movement D. Phagocytic activity by macrophages E. The structure of centrioles 35. A 53-year-old man with a body mass index of 30 is diagnosed with typeⅡdiabetes. Clinical studies have demonstrated that chloroquine improves glucose metabolism in such patients. Chloroquine is a weak base that neutralizes acidic organelles. In a pancreaticβcell , which one of the following would be a direct effect of chloroquine treatment ? A.Increased proinsulin content in secretory vesicles B. Increased release of C peptide C. Increaesd number of amylase-containing secretory vesicles? D. Reduced translation of glucagon mRNA E. Increased stability of insulin mRNA 36. A 32-year-old man and his 30-year-old wife are referred for a reprocuctive endocrinology infertility (REI)consult after 2 years of trying to “get pregnant”. He is diagnosed with oligozoospermia. Ejaculated mature sperm are collected and analyzed for genetic analysis. Using genetic linkage analysis , his REI specialist determines that he has aberrations in spermatogenic meiotic recombination, including both diminished frequency and suboptimal location, resulting in a high frequency of aneuploid sperm. In the explamation of the problem, she explains meiosis and recombination attributing the problem to a specific phase of meiosis . Which phase of meiosis is most closely associated with recombination? A. Lepotene B. Zygotene C. Pachytene D. Diplotene E . Diakinesis 37. A 32-year-old (gravida2, para2) woman who gave birth to a baby girl 24 hours before is having difficulty urinating and is retaining urine in her bladder. She is given bethanechol, a muscatinic agonist , which is the ligand shown in the figure below . Which one of the following is the function of molecule A ? A directly activates protein kinase C B Binds to the ER C Hydrolysis of PIP2 to form diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol triphosphate (IP3) D Stimulation of inhibitory G protein (Gi) activity through phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) E Stimulation of G5 activity through phosphorylation of PIP2
