How enzymes inhibitions studies in the formulation and development of drugs

lesya [120]

Answer:

Enzyme inhibitors may alter the elimination rate of a particular drug or inhibit detoxication pathways

Explanation:

An enzyme inhibitor is a chemical compound capable of binding to an enzyme in order to reduce its activity. An enzyme inhibitor may bind to an active site and thus decreases the rate of reaction (direct inhibition). Enzyme inhibitors may act 1-to Inhibit detoxification enzymes and 2-reduce the elimination rate of enzyme drugs, thereby having dose-dependent toxicity effects. For example, many medicines are based on the inhibition of Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) proteins, which are a superfamily of enzymes required for drug metabolism.

In the female, the development of the "egg" halts during TWO stages, _________ and __________

earnstyle [38]

Answer: The blanks can be correctly filled up with prophase I and metaphase II.

Explanation:

In females, finite number of oocytes are present since birth. The process of oogenesis initiate in embryonic stage only. However, oogonia divide and mature to form primary oocytes. These primary oocytes start meiotic division but arrest in prophase I stage before birth.

After a girl attains puberty, one primary oocyte resumes its division each month during a menstrual cycle. The primary oocyte divides to form secondary oocyte and polar body.

Polar bodies degenerate after completing meiosis II. However, secondary oocyte halts its division again at metaphase II until fertilization takes place. Once fertilization takes place it completes its meiosis II and results into mature ovum and polar body.

An organism is described as 2n = 48.A) How many chromatids per chromosome are in one meiotic cell during prophase 2?B) How many

Alex

Answer:

A) 48

B) 96

C) 48

D) 48

Explanation:

Attached is a table summarizing the number of chromosomes and chromatids in the different stages of mitosis and meiosis in humans who are described as 2n = 46.

For the organism which is described as 2n = 48, substitute 46 in the table for 48 to get the appropriate figures.
