Answer:

High specific heat capacity.

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of water is the quantity of  heat energy needed to raise 1 kg of water by one degree.

The high specific heat capacity of water is due to high hydrogen bonds which holds water molecules together, preventing their free movements.Therefore, large amount of energy is needed to raise water temperature. The hydrogen bonds also enabled  water to store energy.

This features of water makes, plasma resistant to fluctuations in body and environmental temperature, and allows biochemical reactions to occurs at relatively constant rate.

Which statement describes the formation of a protein molecule?
Dovator [93]
First, we can eliminate 2 options. The simple unit of protein is amino acid, instead, the simple unit of fat and lipids are fatty acids and glycerol, therfore we can eliminate option A and D because fatty acids does not exist in protein.
Now we are left with B and C. To solve that, we need to understand that protein is made of a chain of amino acids, a lot of amino acids are chemically combined and cannot be broken down unless the use of enzymes. Amino acid are actually the monomers that forms protein.
Therefore, the answer is C. amino acid combine to form a protein chain.

A inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase would: a) interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin. b) increase blood pH. c) increase the a
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

All the answers are correct

Explanation:

An inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase would  interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin, increase blood pH due to increased H+,  increase the amount of bicarbonate formed in the blood and decrease the amount of carbon dioxide dissolved in plasma.

Carbonic anhydrase catalyses the reaction between carbon dioxide and water to form carbonic acid. Carbonic acid dissociates to form hydrogen carbonate ions and hydrogen ions. The hydrogen ions combine with haemoglobin to form weak haemoglobinic acid.
