BIO-SCI 5759: Special Problems in Pharmacology

Explore how viruses replicate and the various ways in which new viruses emerge. Understand the importance of mutation, cross-species transmission, and the significance of wider spread in host species for disease control strategies.

Learn about mouse genetics and the implications of dominant and recessive genes on coat color. We'll use a Punnett square to predict offspring coat patterns by crossing two heterozygous mice. Learn how phenotype ratios like 9 Agouti: 4 white: 3 black help us understand genetic outcomes.

Explore the anatomy of white and gray rami communicantes, their ties to spinal nerves, and the distinct fibers in each ramus. Learn how the myelinated fibers of white rami differ from the unmyelinated fibers in gray rami. Gain a deeper understanding of our nervous system's complexity through these intricate relationships.

Unveil the essential muscles that make breathing possible in this video. Learn why the diaphragm and scalene are crucial players and why other muscles like the trapezius and semispinalis aren't involved in respiration.

Dive into the biochemistry of haemoglobin, a pivotal protein in red blood cells. We assess key statements about its structure and function, clarifying common misconceptions.
