All of the above 2. Suppose you studied the following enzyme-catalyzed reaction in a reaction vessel: S + E P + E Which of the following statements best accounts for what you would expect to observe if you measured the rate of the reaction before, and after, a positive modulator was added to the reaction mix? a. The rate of the reaction would remain unchanged because positive modulators don t work outside of the cellular environment. b. The rate of the reaction would remain unchanged because enzymes can t respond to modulators outside of the cellular environment. c.

Binding to the active site of an enzyme and increasing the ability of the substrate to bind to it. b. Decreasing the concentration of negative modulators. c. Increasing enzyme-substrate affinity. d. Maintaining a constant enzyme-substrate affinity. e. None of the above. 4. For the following set of reaction rate data, calculate the Q 1 of the reaction: Temperature o C Reaction Rate (if you don t know how to carry out long division by hand, show the problem setup in the space above) QQ 1 = The value of the Q 1 for this reaction is approximately: a. 1.8 b. 4.1 c. 3.2 d. 2.6 e.

None of the above. 7. (6 pts.) What is probably the major problem for an animal that allows or is forced to allow its body temperature to vary, and what it the cause of that problem? The major problem is the potential disruption of metabolic pathways due to the Q 1 phenomenon and its impact of the rates of nterconnected metabolic reactions/pathways that have different Q 1 s. 8. Which of the following graphs best represents what you d expect to observe if you monitored the time-course of temperature change in a warm object placed in a cool environment? a 4 b 4 Temperature, o C Temperature, o C Time, min. Time, min. c 4 d 4 Temperature, o C Temperature, o C Time, min. Time, min. 9. EXTRA CREDIT (2 pts.) Give me the equation of the correct answer to the preceding question, and tell me what each term in the equation represents. What represents the driving force in the equation, and what form of energy is caused to move by the driving force? Note: since this is an Extra Credit question, your answer will have to be perfect. So, don t waste time on this question unless you re certain you know the equation. TT oo (tt) = TT aa + (TT oo () TT aa )ee CCCC OR ddtt oo dddd = CC(TT oo TT aa ) where: TT oo = Temperature of the object TT aa = Ambient temperature CC = Conductance Driving force = (TT oo TT aa ) flux of heat
3 1.

All of the above. 11. Which of the following is a correct statement? ANY RESPONSE IS CORRECT a. I want ½ free point. b. I want 1 free point. c. I want 1½ free points. d. I want 2 free points. e. I don t want any free points. 12. (6 pts) Defend or refute the following statement: data from the Baltic Sea starfish conclusively demonstrate that it s better to be an osmoregulator than an osmoconformer. The data show that whether it s better to be an osmoregulator or osmoconformer is determined by the environment. If the solute concentration of the starfish s surroundings remain relatively constant within a homeostatic range, then the lower costs of being an osmoconformer would make it the preferred strategy. If, however, the solute concentration changes either through changes in the water column (say, from a shift in a current, an influx of fresh water from snow melt, etc.) then the higher costs of being an osmoregulator are offset by the benefits. Note to TAs the students need to show in some way that 1. they know the starfish is an osmoconformer. (1 pt.) 2. they understand that there are costs and benefits to osmoconformity and/or osmoregulation (they don t have to use both terms), (2 pts.) 3. they understand that the starfish s environment determines whether the costs of being an osmoconformer (or osmoregulator) are outweighed by the corresponding benefits. (3 pts.) 13. Which of the following is(are) potential cost(s) of poikilothermy? a. A high metabolic rate that is required to provide heat for thermoregulation. b. Metabolic disruption due to Q 1 effects on metabolism. c. Energy expended on piloerection and dramatically reduce fitness. d. Adverse effects of norepinephrine on heart function. 14. The fact that most organisms thermoregulate if given the opportunity implies that: a. there are no ecological costs associated with thermoregulation. b. there are no ecological costs associated with thermoconformity. c. the ecological costs of thermoconformity can be severe. d. the ecological costs of thermoregulation can be severe. 15. At temperatures below the Thermal Neutral Zone (TNZ), which of the following is(are) employed by an endotherm trying to maintain its body temperature within homeostatic limits? a. Piloerection b. Shivering c. Nonshivering thermogenesis d. Restricted blood flow to the skin e. a & d. f. b & c. g. a, b, c, & d. 16. For an ectotherm, ecological costs associated with thermoregulation can include: a. metabolic disruption. b. increased risk of predation. c. decreased energy intake. d. dangerous fluctuations in body temperature. e. a & d. f. b & c. g. All of the above.
4 17. Measuring an animal s oxygen consumption rate: a. gives us an estimate of how rapidly the animal is using energy. b. tells us something about the general state of the animal s health. c. is only possible with ectotherms. d. a & b. e. All of the above. 18. (3 pts.) Non-shivering thermogenesis results from a biochemical called noepinephrine (1 pt). Its role in body temperature regulation is the result of: increased rates of glycolysis and lipolysis in most tissues. (Note: give them 2 points for this answer. If their answer mentions only uncoupling of phosphorylation in brown fat, only give them one point for that response.) 19. (3 pts.) Your text describes two examples of acclimation, one relating to humans response to ascending to high altitude. What was the other example, and what would you describe as a major difference between that form of acclimation the example of ectotherm acclimation I presented in lecture? Note: the fact that my lecture example dealt with temperature acclimation and the text s example dealt with another homeostatic parameter doesn t count as a major difference. The other example was either frog acclimation to seasonal temperature change (if they used the older edition of the text) or human acclimation to high altitude and/or low oxygen availability (latest edition of the text). Give em the 3 points for putting one or the other, no matter what else they say. (this questions was just to see if they did the reading 2. (6 pts.) The hormone that helps humans and other mammals acclimate to colder temperatures in the winter is thyroxine (1 pt)_. The effect of this hormone in birds is to increase metabolic rate and insulation effectiveness_(2 pts)_, which it brings about by stimulating expression of what I termed metabolic genes, i.e., the genes that code for the enzymes involved in essentially all of the metabolic pathways in the body. (3 pts) 21. Which of the following graphs represents what you d expect to observe in endothermic homeotherm?
5 22. The Lower Critical Temperature (LCT) is reached when: a. piloerection and non-shivering thermogenesis has been minimized. b. the rate of metabolic heat production exceeds the rate of heat loss. c. an endotherm must increase heat production to offset heat losses in order to maintain body temperature within homeostatic limits. d. non-shivering thermogenesis is no longer possible. e. the animal depletes its stores of norepinephrine 23. The slope of the Curve of Thermogenesis below the Lower Critical Temperature is a measure of: a. heat conductance. b. basal metabolic rate. c. body temperature. d. the temperature gradient. e. None of the above. 24. The relative widths of the Thermal Neutral Zone in the naked mole rat, Homo sapiens, and the arctic fox illustrate: a. that all three species are subject to temperature stress in their respective habitats. b. that only humans benefit from the ability to shunt blood when cold-stressed. c. evolutionary adaptation to different degrees of temperature stress imposed by their respective habitats. d. that thermal conductance is greatest in the naked mole rat and lowest in the arctic fox. e. b &c. f. c & d. g. None of the above. 25. (2 pts.) Speaking of naked mole rats: Is that thing butt-ugly, or what? a. Yes. b. No. c. Even its mother couldn t love that face! d. Other Briefly justify your answer. Hint: leave this question for last. Any response is correct. 26. A comparison of the thermobiology of ectotherms or endotherms from constant- and variable-temperature environments suggests that a. ectotherms can t survive in variable-temperature environments. b. the ability to acclimate is ecologically/evolutionarily costly. c. constant-temperature habitats favor the ability to acclimate. d. evolution in variable-temperature habitats leads to the loss of acclimation ability. 27. The purpose of superimposing a Q 1 -effect graph on the graph of a summer periwinkle s metabolic response to changing temperature was to a. indicate how a perfect osmoconformer would respond to changing temperature. b. indicate how a perfect thermoregulator would respond to changing temperature. c. give us a null model with which to compare our experimental data. d. indicate how the periwinkle responds to increased thyroxine release by its thyroid gland.
6 28. (2 points) If you compare similarly-sized birds and mammals, you find that the slope of the Curve of Thermogenesis below LCT (Lower Critical Temperature) is less in birds than in mammals. This suggests that Conductance in birds is lower than in similarly-size mammals. 29. (4 points) The periwinkle s ability to acclimate to seasonal changes in ambient temperature results from: Their answer must contain (or show evidence that they know/understand) the following: The periwinkle s genome (DNA, chromosomes, whatever) contains two alleles for each of many of its metabolic genes. The periwinkle can seasonally switch expression from one allele to another. The seasonal shift in gene/allelic expression results in production of isozymes. They gotta mention the word isozyme for full credit dock em 1 point if they don t! 3. The differences in the physiological response to cold stress exhibited by Australian Aborigines, Alacalufs & Eskimos, compared with most other human groups are due to a. differences in the way their brain responds to cold stress. b. differences in thyroxine levels. c. differences in the amount of hair on the body surface. d. differences in skin pigmentation. 31. (5 pts.) Explain the results of the experiment where we had a wolf place its paw in a very cold antifreeze solution, first by describing what s happening physiologically, then explain why (in an ecological/evolutionary context) the wolves respond to cold stress the way they do. What s happening physiologically (3 pts): the wolf s brain is in turns i. causing vasoconstriction in the extremities to reduce heat losses, then ii. causing vasodilation in the extremities to prevent foot pad temperature from dropping too low. iii. Repeating i and ii over time scales of a few minutes. The ecological/evolutionary context (2 pts): i. Wolves must be active year-round, foraging for food, etc., under conditions that expose their legs & feet to extreme cold. ii. Their food base doesn t supply enough energy to allow them to replace the high heat losses that would occur if they kept their leg & food pad temperatures elevated all the time.
7 32. When salmon migrate from salt to fresh water, they a. commence eating to ensure they take in enough NaCl and other solutes to maintain homeostasis. b. reduce energy expenditure by reducing urine production rates in their kidneys. c. begin drinking large amounts of water to ensure that they don t dehydrate. d. begin drinking large amounts of water to ensure that they take in enough NaCl and other solutes to maintain homeostasis. e. a & c. f. a & d. g. None of the above. 33. The physiological and behavioral responses we observe in salmon as they migrate from fresh to salt water are examples of: a. Osmoconformity b. Acclimation c. Thermoregulation d. Temperature compensation e. Poikilothermy 34. (15 points) The data used to construct the graphs on the next page were obtained from an experiment involving a sparrowsized bird called the Goldfinch. The experimental protocol consisted of Catching 1 birds in the field during July (Summer). Immediately placing the birds in separate temperature-controlled chambers, each set to a constant air temperature of 6 o C. Recording metabolic rate and body temperature over a period of several hours. Repeating the experiment with birds collected in January (Winter). 5 4 Metabolic Rate Summer Winter Time ( hours ) o C ) Body Temperature ( Summer Winter Time ( hours )
8 a. (2 pts) Why does the Metabolic Rate of both groups of birds increase rapidly at the beginning of the experiment? That is, what is the purpose of the increased metabolic rate? To increase heat production in order to maintain body temperature within homeostatic limits in the face of dramatically increased heat losses. b. (4 pts) Propose an explanation for why the Metabolic Rate of the Summer birds decreases starting about.2 hours into the experiment. The Summer birds were unable to increase heat production enough to offset losses, so they became progressively more hypothermic (much as their favorite experimental organism did during the Curve of Thermogenesis experiment when ambient temperature was reduced to close to o C). c. (6 pts) Do the graphs represent acclimation? Defend your answer.. Yes. The winter-captured birds were able to elevate metabolic rate enough to maintain a normal body temperature (or, a body temperature within homeostatic limits) while the summer birds could not. Clearly, physiological/biochemical changes had occurred in the winter birds that allowed them to thermoregulate at very cold ambient temperatures, and that s the definition of acclimation that I gave them in lecture. Attach bribes (cookies, shots of tequila, plane tickets to Bora-Bora, etc.) here.
