MAO and Schizophrenia Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an enzyme that is
|
||||
thought to play a role in the regulation of behavior. To see whether
|
||||
different categories of schizophrenic patients have different levels
|
||||
of MAO activity, researchers collected blood specimens from 42
|
||||
patients and measured the MAO activity in the platelets. Values are
|
||||
expressed as nmol benzylaldehyde product per 108 platelets per hour.

Cricket Singing Times Male Mormon crickets (Anabrus simplex) sing to attract mates.

A field researcher measured the duration of 51 unsuccessful songs--that is, the time

until the singing male gave up and left his perch. The data is given

A dendritic tree is a branched structure that emanates from the body
|

of a nerve cell. As part of a study of brain development, 36 nerve

cells were taken from the brains of newborn guinea pigs. The
|
||||
investigators counted the number of dendritic branch segments
|
||||
emanating from each nerve cell.

Researchers were interested in the short-term effect that caffeine has
|
||||
on heart rate. They enlisted a group of volunteers and measured each
|
||||
person's resting heart rate. Then they had each subject drink 6 ounces
|
||||
of coffee. Nine of the subjects were given coffee containing caffeine
|
||||
and 11 were given decaffeinated coffee. After 10 minutes each person's
|
||||
heart rate was measured again. The data in the table contains the
|
||||
change in heart rate; a positive number means that heart rate went up
|
||||
and a negative number means that heart rate went down.

Toluene and the Brain Abuse of substances containing toluene (for
|

example, glue) can produce various neurological symptoms. In an
|

investigation of the mechanism of these toxic effects, researchers
|

measured the concentrations of various chemicals in the brains of rats
|

that had been exposed to a toluene-laden atmosphere, and also in
|

unexposed control rats. The concentrations of the brain chemical

norepinephrine (NE) in the medulla region of the brain, for six

toluene-exposed rats and five control rats, are given in accompanying

Nerve Cell Density For each of nine horses, a veterinary anatomist

measured the density of nerve cells at specified sites in the

intestine. The results for site I (midregion of jejunum) and site II
|

(mesenteric region of jejunum) are given in the accompanying dataset.
|

Each density value is the average of counts of nerve cells in five

equal sections of tissue.

Certain types of nerve cells have the ability to regenerate a part of
|
||||
the cell that has been amputated. In an early study of this process,
|
||||
measurements were made on the nerves in the spinal cord in rhesus
|
||||
monkeys. Nerves emanating from the left side of the cord were cut,
|
||||
while nerves from the right side were kept intact. During the
|
||||
regeneration process, the content of creatine phosphate (CP) was
|
||||
measured in the left and the right portion of the spinal cord. The
|
||||
following table shows the data for the right (control) side (Y1), and
|
||||
for the left (regenerating) side (Y2). The units of measurement are mg
|
||||
CP per 100 gm tissue.

In an investigation of the physiological effects of alcohol
|

(ethanol), 15 mice were randomly allocated to three treatment groups,
|

each to receive a different oral dose of alcohol. The dosage levels
|

were 1.5, 3.0, and 6.0 g alcohol/kg body weight. The body temperature
|
||||
of each mouse was measured immediately before the alcohol was given
|

and again 20 minutes afterward. The accompanying data shows the drop
|

(before minus after) in body temperature for each mouse. (The negative
|
||||
value - 0.1 refers to a mouse whose temperature rose rather than
|

fell.)

patients with cervical cancer. One of the measurements made, both
