In hemoglobin, the transition from t state to r state (low to high affinity) is triggered by Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG)

  • Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG), also known as 2,3-Disphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG), aids in the transition of hemoglobin from a high-oxygen-affinity to a low-oxygen-affinity state.
  • 2,3-BPG binds to hemoglobin, causing oxygen to be unloaded. Furthermore, 2,3-BPG reduces hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen. As hemoglobin is unloaded in our tissues, 2,3-BPG binds to it, promoting oxygen unloading.
  • When we increase the concentration of 2,3-BPG in our blood, the oxygen binding curve shifts to the right. This means hemoglobin will have a lower affinity for oxygen and will be able to deliver more oxygen to our body's tissues and cells.

Which of the following is NOT a function of the strong hydrochloric acid present in the gastric juice?
Verizon [17]

Answer: d. breakdown starch

Explanation:

The hydrochloric acid is produced by the parietal cells of the gastric glands present in the stomach. The primary function of the hydrochloric acid is to sterilize the food consumed by the human being. The acidic pH is unsuitable for the survival of the microbes present in the stomach. It triggers the activation of enzyme pepsin which is responsible for denaturation of proteins. The pepsin converts the protein into simple form of amino acids hence, facilitates the digestion of protein content in food.

The starch present in the food is digested by the enzyme called as salivary amylase present in the saliva present inside the mouth. The breakdown and digestion of starch is not the function of the hydrochloric acid.

80 point paragraph please help :)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: There are many relationships between the organizational levels of the environment. All of them compliment each other in order to make everything work.The biosphere is what puts everything all together. It is were all live resides. The community,population and organisms are all in the biosphere. The organisms become the population and then the population becomes the community from all the little organisms around. All of these live in biomes and ecosystems. In those areas is where the population and communities live from all the organisms around. Without the biomes and ecosystems there would be no communities nor population and especially no organism's because there'd be no place to call home.

An example of a density-dependent factor is food. Without food the population will die due to starvation. With food the population will strive. A density-independent factor is a disease. The disease will kill of the whole population no matter it's size.

In primary succession is when a newly untouched habitat is occupied. For example a newly grown plant. This plant will soon be taken over by an insect as its temporary home. Once the plant dies the insect leaves. Then the remains of the plant become secondary succession as it is taken over by for example worms in the soil.
