A man who smokes one pack of cigarettes daily has been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis. He has been prescribed theophylline by

his family doctor. What effect will the patient's smoking status have on the therapeutic use of theophylline?Response Feedback: Smoking cigarettes may decrease serum theophylline levels. In fact, some patients who smoke require an increase in theophylline dosage of up to 50%. Theophylline is not associated with a risk of anaphylactoid reaction. Theophylline doses do not need to be concurrent with the use of bronchodilators

Answer:

Smoking cigarettes may decrease serum theophylline levels. Intact some patients who smoke require an increase in serum theophylline dosage of up to 50%.

Explanation:

Smoking smokers on theophylline tends to require higher doses than non smokers because tobacco contains polycyclic hydrocarbons(nicotine) which induces CYPIA2 ( more rapid clearance of theophylline).

All living organisms break down sugar to obtain energy using cellular respiration, Which of the following chemical reactions rep
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The chemical reaction that represents the process of aerobic cell respiration is oxygen + glucose → water + carbon dioxide + energy

Explanation:

Cell respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions in which energy in the form of ATP molecules is obtained from a glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen.

<u>Glucose is the main energetic substrate</u> to be able to synthesize energy in the form of ATP, through oxidative phosphorylation. At the end of the process ATP is obtained as products, and as waste compounds water and carbon dioxide, which can be schematized in the following chemical reaction:

              <em>              C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂ + ATP ↑</em>

<em>                Glucose + Oxygen → Water + Carbon dioxide + Energy ↑</em>

This reaction summarizes what happens in aerobic cellular breathing, which is necessary to synthesize energy for cellular functions.

The other reactions:

  • <em>oxygen + water </em><em>→</em><em> glucose + lactose </em>
  • <em>glucose + lactose </em><em>→</em><em> oxygen + water </em>
  • <em>water + carbon dioxide + energy </em><em>→</em><em> oxygen + glucose</em>

<em>do not represent the components or the order of the reactions that occur in aerobic cell respiration</em>
