Answer:
a: Calculate the energy required to transport 3 Na+ outside the cell, and that required to transport 2 K+ inside the cell separately as shown below-
Given- [Na ], Ex Cell Na moves from (reactant/origin site) cell to (product/destination site) blood plasma. [Na ], in cell 15
[K ], Ex cell Given- [K*], in Cell 140 mM 2.7 mM Na moves from (reactant/origin site) cell to (product/destination site) blood
# Now, total energy required to simultaneously transport 3 Na+ out and 2K+ inside the cell = energy required for (3Na+ transport + 2 K+ transport)
= 36.15 kJ mol-1 + 8.00 kJ mol-1 = 44.00 kJ mol-1
b: Enthalpy of ATP hydrolysis = -30.5 kJ mol-1
That is, Energy released from hydrolysis of 1 mol ATP = 30.5
Conclusion: Since the energy released from hydrolysis of 1 mol ATP is LESSER than that of the energy required for simultaneous transport of (3Na+ transport + 2 K+ transport), the hydrolysis of a single mol ATP is NOT sufficient to drive the Na+-K+ pump under given conditions.
Answer:
0.032 L
Explanation:
There are 1000 mL in one L so you would divide 32 by 1000 to convert it into liters (L)
32/1000 = 0.032
Answer:
R39.15
Explanation:
Urgency of urination. R39.15 is the ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Answer:
Albuterol (also known as salbutamol) is used to prevent and treat wheezing and shortness of breath caused by breathing problems (such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). It is also used to prevent asthma brought on by exercise.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct option is d. all listed symptoms are associated with diabetes melitus
Explanation:
Diabetes, the short name for Diabetes mellitus, is a group of metabolic disorders. In this condition, the sugar level in the blood of the patient is high for a prolonged period.
Some of the symptoms of untreated diabetes include-
1. polyuria: excessive urination
2. polyphagia: increased hunger or appetite
3. polydipsia: excess thirst
4. glucosuria : excretion of glucose into the urine. Normally, the kidneys absorb the blood sugar back into the blood vessels. But due to the increased blood sugar levels, the kidneys do not absorb enough blood sugar and passes it into the urine.
Therefore, all of the listed symptoms are associated with diabetes mellitus.
