Study Notes
Human Anatomy
- The opposite of the anterior view is the dorsal (posterior) view.
- Abduction is the anatomical movement of a muscle away from the midline of the body.
- Adduction is the anatomical movement of a muscle toward the midline of the body.
- The sacrum is a triangular bone at the base of the spine that forms the back wall of the pelvis
- Incomplete closure of the vertebral column results in spina bifida.
- The hip joint is a multiaxial ball and socket joint.
- The shoulder and hip joint are examples of multiaxial ball and socket joints.
- Actin and myosin muscle fibers help in muscle contraction.
- The sartorius muscle can flex the hip and extend the knee.
- Swimming is not a weight-bearing exercise.
- Skull joints are not weight-bearing joints.
- The palatine bones are two irregular bones of the facial skeleton that, along with the maxilla, comprise the hard palate.
- Swimming provides the least help in the prevention of osteoporosis or improvement of bone mineral density.
- The posterior muscle group is made up of muscles that extend (straighten) the thigh at the hip.
Cell and Molecular Biology
- rRNA is the most abundant type of RNA, making up 80% of total RNA.
- rDNA is recombinant DNA.
- Endonuclease is not related to the polymer chain reaction (PCR).
- Hemophilia type A results from a deficiency in clotting factor 8.

- Uracil is not found in deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA).
- Information transfer from DNA to mRNA is referred to as transcription.
- Complementary DNA (cDNA) is produced from mRNA.
- Cholesterol synthesis takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum of eukaryotic cells.
- Antisense technology targets mRNA.
- A nucleotide consists of a phosphate, a sugar, and a base.
- The conversion of nucleoside to nucleotide is achieved by adding a phosphate.
- Gene therapy can be used to treat cancers, sickle cell anemia, and hemophilia.
- Sickle cell anemia affects the hemoglobin of red blood cells (RBCs) and is a genetic carrier gene disease.
- A cDNA library contains clones representing mRNA.
- Erythropoietin-stimulating agents may have greater risk than benefit in patients with cancer when the goal is a cure, due to the potential increased risk of tumor progression.
Pharmacogenetics
