Plasma proteins account at least 8% of the plasma, they contribute to osmotic pressure and maintain water balance in blood and tissues, other functions includes transport and enzymatic activities. Plasma proteins include albumin, fibrinogen and globulin (alpha, beta and gamma). Globulin proteins may be used to fight infections such that gamma globulin antibodies are released by the plasma during immune response.
It is called Acidosis or respiratory acidosis

Answer:
A. Water
Explanation:
Van Helmont concluded that most of the mass the plant gained had come from water, because that was the only thing that he had added to the pot. Van Helmont's experiment accounts for the "hydrate," or water, portion of the carbohydrate produced by photosynthesis.
Answer:
They remain in an environment,even as more competitive species arrive
Explanation:
Pioneer species, in ecological succession, are the first set of organisms to colonize a bare area of land or a disturbed area of land. Pioneer species include lichens, grasses, fungi etc.
Pioneer species have unique characteristics that distinguishes them from every other species of organism. These include:
- They facilitate environmental change, making an environment more habitable for other species.
- They tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions.
- They are capable of colonizing a barren environment, as in primary succession.
However, pioneer species do not remain in an environment, even as more competitive species arrive. They rather give way for new species to emerge and dominate.
Answer:
14 CO₂ will be released in the second turn of the cycle
Explanation:
<u>Complete question goes like this</u>, "<em>The CO2 produced in one round of the citric acid cycle does not originate in the acetyl carbons that entered that round. If acetyl-CoA is labeled with 14C at the carbonyl carbon, how many rounds of the cycle are required before 14CO2 is released?</em>"
<u>The answer to this is</u>;
- The labeled Acetyl of Acetyl-CoA becomes the terminal carbon (C4) of succinyl-CoA (which becomes succinate that is a symmetrical four carbon diprotic dicarboxylic acid from alpha-ketoglutarate).
- Succinate converts into fumarate. Fumarate converts into malate, and malate converts into oxaloacetate. Because succinate is symmetrical, the oxaloacetate can have the label at C1 or C4.
- When these condense with acetyl-CoA to begin the second round of the cycle, both of these carbons are discharged as CO2 during the isocitrate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase reactions (formation of alpha-ketoglutarate and succinyl-CoA respectively).
Hence, 14 CO₂ will be released in the second turn of the cycle.
