Cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP are part of almost all major cellular signaling pathways. Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are enzymes that regulate the intracellular levels of cAMP and cGMP. Protein kinase A or cAMP-dependent protein kinase mediates most cAMP effects in the cell. Over the last 25 years, various components of this group of molecules have been involved in human diseases, both genetic and acquired. Lately, the PDEs attract more attention. The pharmacological exploitation of the PDE’s ability to regulate cGMP and cAMP, and through them, a variety of signaling pathways, has led to a number of new drugs for diverse applications from the treatment of erectile dysfunction to heart failure, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We present the abstracts (available online) and selected articles from the proceedings of a meeting that took place at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, MD, June 8–10, 2011.

Identify the reactants and the products in this chemical equation.<br><br> 2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Fe₂O₃ and C are reactants

Fe and CO₂ are products

Explanation:

Reactants:

Chemical species that are present on left side of chemical reaction equation are called reactants.

Product:

Chemical species that are present on right side of chemical reaction equation are called product.

Chemical equation:

2Fe₂O₃ + 3C  →  4Fe + 3CO₂

In this reaction 2 mole of iron oxide is react with three moles of carbon and produced four moles of iron and three moles of carbon dioxide. There are equal numbers of atoms of all elements present on both side of chemical reaction so this reaction follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Calculate the theoretical yield of glycolysis and complete glucose breakdown
rusak2 [61]
Eukaryotic cells, the theoretical maximum yield of ATP generated per glucose is 36 to 38, depending on how the 2 NADH generated in the cytoplasm during glycolysis enter the mitochondria and whether the resulting yield is 2 or 3 ATP per NADH

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

(a) The handspan is the distance between the tip of the thumb and tip of the little finger when the hand is fully stretched.

b) It is impossible for them to obtain an accurate result by the use of a handspan because it doesn't use any standard unit for measurement. It is entirely subjective and highly prone to human errors.

c) Anupam  is quite intelligent and active

What do all atoms of the same element have
nordsb [41]

Answer:

All atoms of the same element have always have the same amount of protons.

Explanation:

Atoms of the same element have always have the same amount of protons but not always the same electrons and neutrons. If an atom gains or loses one of its valance electrons, the electrons on the outermost shell, then it becomes ionized. Also not all atoms of the same element have the same amount of neutron. This is called an isotope. A good example would be Carbon 13. Normally, Carbon atoms have an atomic mass of 12 AMU or 12 atomic mass units. However, Carbon atoms have an atomic mass of 13 AMU, consisting of 7 neutrons instead of 6 neutrons. So the only thing that all atoms of the same element have in common is the amount of protons.
