Answer: C. warfarin.

Explanation:

Warfarin has been the cornerstone of oral anticoagulant therapy for about 50 years. Its effectiveness has already been proven in the prevention of venous thromboembolism in the prevention of systemic embolism in patients with cardiac valve prostheses or atrial fibrillation and the prevention of acute myocardial infarction (MI) in high-risk men. Warfarin mainly inhibits the vitamin K epoxide reductase enzyme, which prevents the cyclic interconversion of this vitamin. This way, by blocking the cyclic interconversion of vitamin K prevents carboxylation of glutamate residues in terminal regions in K-dependent proteins. Warfarin is the most commonly used oral anticoagulant in clinical practice and is composed of two isomers, R-warfarin, and S-warfarin (5 times more potent than R-isomer), which are metabolized in the liver by different routes.

True or false?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Over time more and more molecules of DCPIP would be decreased by electrons taken from plastoquinone (Pq). This statement is true in the sense that DCPIP is an artificial electronic acceptor which is decreased by taking electrons from plastoquinone.

2.) Water splitting by Photosystem II would occur at higher levels than if the drug were administered without DCPIP. This statement is true.

3.)Events in Photosystem I would occur just as they would in the absence of drug and DCPIP. This statement is false because the drug obstructs the electron transport from plastoquinone to cytochrome B. So the events are abnormal because no protein transfer is involved in this mechanism.
