BIOLOGY II
Lecture 3, page 85:
In the second paragraph under "Posterier Pituitary" it should say "When water is absorbed
from the collecting tubule, the osmolarity of the blood plasma decreases" not increases.

In Class Exams, Lecture 5, page 240 & 257, question 112:
The answer explanation should read "A is correct. Again, aldosterone increases the activity of the Na+ -K+ -
ATPase pump, thereby increasing both Na+ reabsorption and K+ excretion in the distal tubule and collecting
duct. Increased K+ excretion, however, does not lead to increased blood pressure. Instead, increased Na+
reabsorption leads to increased thirst and increased blood volume. When Na+ is reabsorbed, water follows.
In this way, aldosterone indirectly increases blood pressure. Secretion of vasopressin, the hypothalamic
hormone that regulates water reabsorption in the distal tubule and collecting duct is stimulated by Ang II,
not aldosterone."

Lecture 1, page 3:
The last equation in the cluster of 4 under the figure should read:
dbase = 4 m, not d ramp = 4 m.

Lecture 3, page 79, question 69:
Answer choices C and D should both say “because flow speed is lower” as follows:
“C. The pressure is higher in the aneurysm because flow speed is lower in the normal blood vessel.”
“D. The pressure is lower in the aneurysm because flow speed is lower in the normal blood vessel.”
In Class Exams, Lecture 4, pages 103 & 214 & 225, question 87:
On p. 103, answer choice A to question 87 should say "5.5 x 10 6 ions".
On p. 214, the answer to question 87 should be A.
On p. 225, the answer to question 87 should be A and the answer explanation should read:
"Choice A is correct. The total charge that can be stored across a capacitor, like the cell, can be calculated
by Q = CV. Next, the surface area of the spherical cell = 4πr2 = 4π × (10 -3cm)2 = 1.26 x 10 -5 cm 2 . To find
the total capacitance of the cell membrane, multiply capacitance/area by area: C = 1.26 x 10 -5 × 10 -6 =
1.26 × 10 -11 F. The total charge can be found by multiplying capacitance by the voltage given in the text:
Q = CV = 1.26 x 10 -11 × 70 x 10 -3 = 8.82 × 10 -13 C. Divide the total charge required by the charge per
ion (for potassium, a singly charged ion): 8.82 × 10 -13 / (1.6 x 10 -19) = 5.5 × 10 6 ions. Choice A is the best
answer."

Lecture 5, page 159:
The sentence starting 2/3 of the way down in the last paragraph on p. 159 should read: "Because the
image formed by the objective falls inside the focal length of the eyepiece, the eyepiece forms a virtual,
upright image. Since the first image was inverted, this means that the image viewed by the observer
appears inverted. For both microscopes and telescopes, even though the object of the second lens is the
image of the first one, the object is still "where it belongs" (on the other side of the lens from the observer
and is thus designated positive)."

CHEMISTRY
Lecture 1, page 14:
The last sentence of the third paragraph should read: "Since there are two electrons in each
orbital, the number of electrons in the periods of the periodic table is 2, 8, 18, and 32." It
should say "electrons" not "elements".

Lecture 4, page 149, questions 94, 95, & 96:
Questions 94, 95 and 96 should read:

container, decreasing the volume of the container would cause
which of the following?

information provided.

In the Nernst equation it should say “log” not “ln”.

In Class Exams, Lecture 1, page 286, question 16:
The Answer Explanation for question 16 should reference "Chamber 2" and "Chamber 3", in place of
"Chamber 1" and "Chamber 2" respectively.
94. D is the best answer. D is the best answer. An exothermic reaction releases heat, which is considered
a product. Increasing the temperature disturbs equilibrium by increasing the amount of heat on the
product side, resulting in a shift toward the reactants. As a result, the concentration of reactants (SO2
and O2) will increase while the concentration of the product will decrease (SO3). Choices A, B, and C
are not strong answers.
95. B is the best answer. B is the best answer. In order to increase the production of heat, the reaction
must shift towards the right and generate products. Increasing the temperature will cause a leftward
shift, which is opposite the desired effect, eliminating choices A and C. The effects of pressure change
are dependent on the moles of gas of the reactants vs. products. Looking only at gases (which are
all the compounds in this reaction), 3 moles of reactants generates 2 moles of products. A decrease
in pressure shifts the reaction toward the side with more moles of gas, in this case, the reactants.
Therefore, a high pressure and low temperature will increase the production of heat, eliminating
choice D and leaving choice B as the best answer.
96. A is the best answer. Decreasing the volume causes an increase in pressure (PV = nRT). An increase
in pressure favors a shift towards the side with less moles of gas, which are the products in this
reaction. As a result, the formation of sulfur trioxide will increase.

Lecture 6, page 330, question 125:
The Answer Explanation for In Lecture question 125 should have the last sentence as follows: “Finally,
adding a non-volatile solute decreases the vapor pressure of the whole solution.”
