Drinking salt water is harmful because it messes up the salt concentration in each of your red blood cells. It over loads the salt in it and causes the cell to swell up and burst due to it trying to let in more water to balance the salt concentration out.

gHow would an inhibitor of cAMP phosphodiesterase affect glucose mobilization in muscle? It would reduce cAMP levels and inhibit
Ksivusya [100]
<h2>cAMP and glucose mobilization</h2>

Explanation:

It would maintain high cAMP level and elevate glucose mobilization

  • Phosphodiesterase is an effector enzyme which degrades secondary messenger cAMP(cyclic adenosine monophosphate)
  • Here in this case an inhibitor is inhibiting the phosphodiesterase therefore cAMP level will increase
  • As cAMP level rise it activates a protein called protein kinase A which phosphorylates phosphorylase kinase and activates it
  • Phosphorylase kinase becomes active that phosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase and makes it active,glycogen phosphorylase catalyse breakdown of glycogen(in liver and muscle cells)
  • In liver cells breakdown of glycogen occurs and glucose 1 phosphate gets converted into glucose and supplied to whole body through blood
