[BLANK-1] was a Lakota Sioux Chief during one of the greatest atrocities that Native Americans faced from the United States. A group of 350, including 100 women, sought refuge at the Pine Ridge Agency in late 1890 and they were escorted to Wounded Knee Creek. When U.S. Cavalry forces attempted to disarm this man’s tribe on December 29, a brief skirmish turned into a massacre when the Americans fired heavy weapons indiscriminately into the camp. Between 150-300 Lakota men, women, and children were dead. The event, known as the Wounded Knee Massacre, marked the end of sustained Native American resistance.

President Benjamin Harrison supported the passage of [BLANK-1] which called for roughly 50% taxes on foreign imports. This was the most extreme measure of its kind but led to the first “Billion Dollar Congress” and increased government spending. The economic policy proved unpopular, however, and the massive spending initiatives were deemed a waste by conservative members of the electorate. Harrison’s support for the policy also came at the expense of two Pro-Black bills he championed as Republicans in congress needed to compromise with Democrats in order to pass the economic initiative.

Conceptual question. (Total value = 20 points). Write an essay on ONE of the seven topics (just one!) listed below.     Formatting:Your answer must be in flowing text (not bullet points). Your answer must consist of at least four discrete paragraphs including:an introductory paragraph;two or more “body” paragraphs; anda concluding paragraph. Each paragraph must contain at least two sentences.Topic List:Explain why, in physiological systems, buffers are usually weak acids with a pK value that matches, or nearly matches, the surrounding pH under normal conditions.Explain why the anaerobic metabolism of glucose requires the conversion of pyruvate to lactate.Discuss the relative advantages and disadvantages of creatine phosphate hydrolysis, anaerobic glycolysis and oxidative glucose metabolism as intracellular mechanisms for the production of stored chemical energy (ATP, GTP) and heat.Describe the way in which the protein complexes of the inner mitochondrial membrane restore the proton acceptors, NAD+ and FAD and explain how this process is used, in the aerobic metabolism of glucose, to create a PMF capable of generating substantial quantities of heat and stored chemical energy.Describe, using an example, signal transduction and amplification in a G-protein coupled receptorCompare the processes that lead to the release of hormones from the anterior and posterior pituitary hormones.  Build on this to explain why, when the stalk connecting the hypothalamus to the pituitary hormone is compressed, the compression can result in the hyposecretion of ACTH, TSH, LH & FSH and the hypersecretion of PRL (prolactin), while having little to no effect on the secretion of the posterior pituitary hormones.Describe in detail the hormonal regulation of reproduction in male mammals. Explain why this process sometimes leads to testicular hypertrophy in mammals that breed seasonally.
