Research the process of erythropoiesis, and explain the role erythropoietin plays. Why is this a popular “doping” drug for athletes?
Response: Erythropoiesis is originated from the Greek word 'erythro' means "red" and 'poiesis' means "to make". Hence, it can be defined as the process by which red blood cells are produced (erythrocytes) and they are developed from erythropoietic stem cell into red blood cell. Red blood cells are formed in the marrow of bones. The primary sites of formation of red cells is known as erythropoiesis, in adults are the marrow spaces of the vertebral, ribcage, clavicle, and pelvic. The red cell is formed in the bone tissues or marrow from a naive progenitor called as erythroblast, which has a nucleaus but no haemoglobin. Proliferation happens in the event because of the cellular divisions.  Hemoglobin develops in the cell during development, and the nucleus shrinks gradually and disappears after few days. Post this process, cell gets delivered into the blood system.
Erythropoietin (EPO) regulates erythropoiesis by facilitating the viability, multiplication, and maturation of erythroid progenitor cells and modulating the amount of red blood cells in peripheral circulation.
EPO promotes red blood cell formation in bone marrow and maintains the proportion of red blood cells and hemoglobin in the bloodstream. This is advantageous for sportsmen because red blood cells transport oxygenated blood to the cells, particularly muscle cells, allowing individuals to perform more efficiently.
How the hemoglobin content differ in a person living in Philadelphia (Elevation: 39 feet) would compared to someone living in Denver (Elevation: 5280 feet)? Why?
Response: The person living in Philadelphia at an elevation of 39 feet would found to have lower levels of hemoglobin in his blood as compared to the person living in Denver at an elevation of 5280 feet.
This is attributable to the binding property of hemoglobin in our blood to oxygen in the lungs for transportation to other parts of the body. At higher elevations, the amount of oxygen is low as compared to less elevated areas or regions. Hemoglobin amount in blood of people who live in high altitude environments have naturally higher or rises to maintain the partial pressure of oxygen, and these changes are accomplished by morphological and physiological adaptations obtained during the embryonic period. This is one of the most well-known aspects of high-altitude adaptation or acclimatization.
What other organs or body systems incorporate valves? How are they used?
Response: A valve is multiple membrane structure, particularly in the veins, heart,  and lymph ducts, that act to momentarily seal a route or opening, allowing one way fluid circulation . A valve could be made up of a sphincter muscles or up to three membrane sheets or flaps.
The heart has valves that prevent blood from flowing backwards.
Apart from that, the components of the digestive tract have valves known as  esophageal sphincter that allow food to go in one direction while preventing backflow. The pyloric sphincter is located near the end of the abdomen controlling the flow of chyme from the stomach...
