Answer:
c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.
e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.
f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.
Explanation:
The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.
Myoglobin binds oxygen
The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:
Answer:
- <u>Dependent variable</u>
Explanation:
In a controlled <em>experiment </em>there will be one independent variable, one dependent variable, and some controlled or constant parameters.
The target of the expermiment is to tes how the dependent variable changes with the independent variable.
So, the scientist will change (manipulate) the independent variable and measure the dependent vabiales.
Here, the temperature will be manipulated (within a range), so this is the independent variable; the height of the cake is the variable whose behavior wants to be determined, so this is the dependent variable. Controlled variables or constants may include the mixture, the size of the pan, the time of cooking, the oven, among others.
Answer:
Molar heat of solution of KBr is 20.0kJ/mol
Explanation:
Molar heat of solution is defined as the energy released (negative) or absorbed (Positive) per mole of solute being dissolved in solvent.
The dissolution of KBr is:
KBr → K⁺ + Br⁻
In the calorimeter, the temperature decreases 0.370K, that means the solution absorbes energy in this process. The energy is:
q = 1.36kJK⁻¹ × 0.370K
q = 0.5032kJ
Moles of KBr in 3.00g are:
3.00g × (1mol / 119g) = 0.0252moles
Thus, molar heat of solution of KBr is:
0.5032kJ / 0.0252moles = <em>20.0kJ/mol</em>
Answer:
D. +5.7 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Molar free energy (ΔG) in the transportation of uncharged molecules as glucse through a cell membrane from the exterior to the interior of the cell is defined as:
ΔG = RT ln C in / C out
knowing R is 8,314472 kJ/molK; T is 298K Cin = 200mM and Cout = 20mM
ΔG = 5,7 kJ/mol
Right answer is:
D. +5.7 kJ/mol
