Explanation:
Compounds are those substances that are made up of elements that are combined in a fixed proportion or ratio. The individual property of element is lost once it forms a compound. The physical and chemical properties of both compound and an element is different.
Example of a compound is water and its elements are hydrogen and oxygen. Water is a colorless liquid that acts as a solvent and dissolves most of the solutes in it. While oxygen and hydrogen occurs as gases in their elemental state.
Answer:
B) binding of a molecule to a binding site affects the binding properties of another site on the protein.
Explanation:
In an allosteric interaction between a protein and a ligand, the ligand binds to a site in the protein. As a result, there is a change in the properties of other active sites on the protein. These active-site changes may or may not allow the protein to bind to other molecules. There is a change in the protein that affects the affinity of the active site for other molecules. The affinity on the active site increases if the protein binds to an activator and decreases if the protein binds to an inhibitor molecule.
Answer: b. can lead to other cardiovascular diseases
Explanation:
High blood pressure or hypertention can be define as a condition in which the flowing blood exerts force over the walls of the arteries. The arteries are the type of blood vessels which carries the blood from the heart to the rest of the body parts.
