One of the laboratory tests performed was an FBS (fasting blood sugar) ordered by Dr. Bahjat. Give an example of an abnormal FBS that could be concerning for Dr. Bahjat. List some signs and symptoms that Ms. Gutierrez may have had, which would have indicated to Dr. Bahjat that she should be tested for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

How does Ms. Gutierrez’s ethnicity play a role in her diagnosis? What should be considered regarding patient education?

Poliovirus is an rna virus of the picornavirus group, which uses its rna as mrna. at its 5' end, the rna genome has a viral protein (vpg) instead of a cap. this is followed by anontranslated leader sequence, and then a single long protein-coding region (~7000 nucleotides), followed by a poly-a tail. observations were made that used radioactive amino acid analogues. short period use of the radioactive amino acids result in labeling of only very long proteins, while longer periods of labeling result in several different short polypeptides. what conclusion is most consistent with the results of the radioactive labeling experiment? a) host cell ribosomes only translate the viral code into short polypeptides. b) the rna is only translated into a single long polypeptide, which is then cleaved into shorter ones. c) the rna is translated into short polypeptides, which are subsequently assembled into large ones. d) the large radioactive polypeptides are coded by the host, whereas the short ones are coded for by the virus.
