A deficiency in thiamine (TPP) will directly decrease the activity of which of the following enzymes? a. Pyruvate carboxylase b.

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase c. Aldolase Bd. Transketolase
Chemistry
1 answer:
Blababa [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

d. Transketolase

Explanation:

Transketolase utilize thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) as cofactor has reduced activity during the thiamine deficiency and results in the tissue damage. <u>The levels of steady-state mRNA of transketolase in human lymphoblasts, fibroblasts and neuroblastoma cells are found to be lower in the thiamine-deficient cultures.  </u>

Thus, deficiency in TPP directly decrease the activity of enzyme, transketolase.

When chromium loses two electrons, its configuration changes to
damaskus [11]

Electronic configuration of cromium is  

Cr-[Ar]4s¹3d⁵  

When cromium loses two electrons it becomes Cr⁺².  

So its electronic configuration becomes,  

Cr⁺²-[Ar]3d⁴  

One electron will go from 4s orbital and one electron will go from 3d orbital.

So the answer here is D. [Ar]3d⁴ -because after losing 2 electrons electronic configuration of cromium becomes  [Ar] 3d⁴.

A particular balloon can be stretched to a maximum surface area of 1257 cm2. The balloon is filled with 3.1 L of helium gas at a
lianna [129]

Answer:

P = 0.6815 atm

Explanation:

Pressure = 754 torr

The conversion of P(torr) to P(atm) is shown below:

P(torr)=\frac {1}{760}\times P(atm)

So,  

Pressure = 754 / 760 atm = 0.9921 atm

Temperature = 294 K

Volume = 3.1 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.9921 atm × 3.1 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 294 K  

⇒n of helium gas= 0.1274 moles

Surface are = 1257 cm²

For a sphere, Surface area = 4 × π × r² = 1257 cm²

r² = 1257 / 4 × π ≅ 100 cm²

r = 10 cm

The volume of the sphere is :

V=\frac {4}{3}\times \pi\times r^3

Where, V is the volume

r is the radius

V=\frac {4}{3}\times \frac {22}{7}\times {10}^3

V = 4190.4762 cm³

1 cm³ = 0.001 L

So, V (max) = 4.19 L

T = 273 K

n = 0.1274 moles

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

Applying the equation as:

P × 4.19 L = 0.1274 × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 273 K  

<u>P = 0.6815 atm</u>

<u></u>
