What is the role of your kidneys in compensating for low levels of oxygen

Biology
1 answer:
TEA [102]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

When there are low oxygen levels in blood, the blood pH tends to lower. This is because there is an increased level of carbon dioxide in the blood that is converted to carbonic acid by carbonic anhydrase. When carbon acid dissociates, into H⁺ and HCO₃⁻ . The H⁺ influences the increase in acidity of the blood.   The kidneys will excrete most of the H⁺ and retain most of the HCO₃⁻ to help maintain the right blood pH. However, most of blood pH homeostasis is maintained largely by the lungs.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: Coenzymes

Explanation:

Coenzymes are the small organic molecules that are often derived from the vitamins. It can be tightly or loosely bond to the enzymes.

Tighly bond ones are the prothestic groups and loosely bond ones are coenzymes like the products and substrate which binds to the enzyme and get released from it.

This component is very important for any reaction to take place. It bonds to the enzymes and helps in product formation.

What does topography show?
muminat

Answer:

I. The landforms such as valleys, volcanoes, hill, plateau, etc., in a geographical area or region.

II. The shape of the land.

Explanation:

In Geography, topography can be defined as the shape and structure of the Earth surface. Thus, a topographic map is used to graphically describe this features.

A topographic map can be defined as an accurate and detailed graphical (two-dimensional) description, representation or records of both natural and man-made (artificial) features on the surface of the Earth.

A topographic map is a two-dimensional model that uses contour lines to represent points of equal elevation above sea level such as mountains, hills, plains, valley etc.

The two-dimensional model of a topographic map graphically represents the height of a mount and the steepness of a slope through the use of contour lines.

Contours can be defined imaginary lines used for connecting locations that are having similar elevations on the Earth's surface.

Hence,a topography show two (2) main things and these includes;

I. The landforms such as valleys, volcanoes, hill, plateau, etc., in a geographical area or region.

II. The shape of the land.

Consider the observation that serine is the amino acid residue that can be replaced by another amino acid with the least effect
iVinArrow [24]

The question has incorrect option, however the question can be answered by the general explanation. On the basis of the general explanation the answer is as follows:

Answer:

The correct answer is - Serine has a small side chain that can fit in any relatively polar environment.

Explanation:

Serine is an amino acid that have a small side chain in comparison of other amino acid and can be replaced by another amino acid with very least effect on the structure and function of a particular protein as they can fit in any relatively polar environment.

Serine have hydroxyl group in their side chain. It is polar amino acid that can easily establish itself in any polar condition and cause least changes in protein structure and function.

Thus, the correct answer is - Serine has a small side chain that can fit in any relatively polar environment.
