The pH of blood if pco2 drops to 35.0 mmHg is 7.459

The pH of the blood can be calculated using the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation, which explains the relationship between acid dissociation constant pKa and pH in biological and chemical systems.

pH = pK + log ( HCO3- / ( 0.03 * PCO2 ) )

pK is 6.1 for the bicarbonate buffer system.

HCO3- = 24mm

PCO2  = 35.0 mmhg

pH = 6.1 + log ( 24 / 0.03 * 35.0 )

    = 6.1 + log ( 24 / 1.05 )

    = 6.1 + log 22.8571

    = 6.1 + 1.3590

    = 7.459

Hence, the pH of blood is 7.459

All of the following are part of a prokaryotic cell except
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

An Endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

A living organism can either have prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells.

Eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus and other membrane bound organelles whereas prokaryotic cells lack membrane bound organelles such as mitochondrion and chloroplast.

Endoplasmic reticulum are membranous system that forms a system of flattened sacs in the cytoplasm.

These organelles can only be found in eukaryotic cells and not prokaryotic cell.

What is the difference between a hot-water system and a steam-heating system?
Nonamiya [84]

Steam radiators and hot water radiators are very similar, so much so that in many cases they are interchangeable. Many homes have been converted from steam to hot water heating systems (and vice versa) without having to change the actual radiators.

The most obvious difference between the two is that a hot water radiator is always equipped with two connections: hot water goes into the radiator on one side, and the cooled water leaves on the other. Steam radiators can have either one or two connectors: hot steam can enter on one side, and condensed water can leave either through the same pipe or through a pipe on the other side.

While it is certainly best to use a steam radiator for steam and a hot water radiator for water, in some cases a switch between the two will require only a few simple operations.
