Some molecule can pass through but others cannot because they are too large to pass through. This is also called selective permeability.

Vesnalui [34]
This patient has a soft tissue contusion involving the quadriceps muscle. In acute care setting, the patient should be advised rest, ice, compression, and elevation or RICE. Might as well, an x-ray should be done to rule out potential fractures and dislocations. Possibly, casting may be done. Medications like pain relievers may be given to soothe the pain. Upon follow-up, range of motion should be assessed and repeat x-ray may be done. Removal of casts may be done also. Continue RICE.

Why does a protein not function after it has been denatured?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

d. The normal bonding between the R groups has been disturbed and the protein loses its normal shape.

Explanation:

Denaturation is the loss of function of a protein due to its altered three-dimensional structure. To function properly, proteins must be present in a properly folded form. The three-dimensional structure and protein folding are mediated by weak interactions such as hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions, etc. An abrupt increase in temperature, pH or presence of some organic solvents causes protein denaturation.

The organic solvents target the hydrophobic interactions between the R groups of amino acids that make the core of globular protein stable. Extreme levels of pH target the net charge on proteins and thereby results in electrostatic repulsion between closely placed amino acids. Extremes of pH also disrupt the hydrogen bonding between the R groups of the amino acids. The effect is the loss of the three-dimensional structure of proteins, their partial or complete unfolding and loss of function.
