Molodets [167]

Answer:

Receptors are highly specific and only have high affinity for those ligands for whom they are specific.

Explanation:

Receptors are proteins that receive a stimulus or bind a ligand and mediate effects via receptor effector system.

Receptors are macromolecules that are highly specific.

The affinity between the ligand and the receptors is determind by the disassociation constant Kd.

The receptors produce maximun effect when an appropriate specific stimulus is present.

Different recptors types are present for different ligands.

For example, muscrinic receptors are specific for acetycholine and adrenergic receptors are specific for adrenaline/nor adrenaline.

It is important to know the specificity so that the body remains in a state of balance.

Infer how an organism, like a polar bear, might interact with each of earth’s 5 spheres.
viva [34]

The five earth's spheres are biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere and lithosphere.

It drinks water, which is part of the hydrosphere. It breaths in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Its wastes is a source of food to decomposers, ( in the geosphere) which breaks it down for plants' use

The bulk of carbon dioxide is carried chemically combined with the amino acids of hemoglobin as carbaminohemoglobin in the rbcs.
natali 33 [55]
<span>The answer would be: as the bicarbonate ion in the plasma after first entering the red blood cells

Carbon dioxide will be changed into bicarbonate ion that released into the plasma. That is why the level of carbon dioxide will influence the pH of the blood. The process will produce hydrogen ion so higher carbon dioxide will result in acidosis. It is important to keep the carbon dioxide level at a certain point to prevent blood pH stable</span>
