The unusual property that cytochromes have in common with hemoglobin or myoglobin is that all of them contain heme groups. Cytochromes are heme-containing electron transport enzymes which are essential for the oxidative metabolism necessary to generate adenosine triphosphateas well as for the oxidative degradation of drugs and endogenous substrates.
Answer: The most affected would be organs that have QUICKLY dividing cells (like the intestine and hair follicles).
Explanation:
Cancer cells are cells that divides uncontrollably giving rise to a mass of tissue called tumour. They grow faster than a normal cell in an uncoordinated manner, and continues to grow after the initial stimulus has ceased.
Paclitaxel is a drug that is approved for the treatment of cancer affecting different parts of the body. It's a microtubule-stabilizing drug whose mechanism of action is to induce mitotic arrest in the cancer cells.
Paclitaxel in its cause of action not only affect cancer cells but normal cells as well. To justify this statement, as stated earlier, the mechanism of action of paclitaxel is to induce mitotic arrest. Therefore the cells of organs where rapid mitosis occurs would be most affected. Skin cells, hair follicles and the cells lining our intestines (epithelial cells) all have high rates of mitosis as these tissues constantly need to be replaced.
Answer:
<em>The competitive inhibitor binds to the active site and prevents the substrate from binding there.</em>
Explanation:
The noncompetitive inhibitor binds to a different site on the enzyme; it doesn't block substrate binding, but it causes other changes in the enzyme so that it can no longer catalyze the reaction efficiently.
The repository of bile produced by the liver is one of the gallbladder's top priorities.
Bile is required to break down the body's fats and lipids, making it vital for digestion. In addition, it helps in the metabolism of bilirubin, which is produced when RBCs break down.
The gallbladder serves several essential purposes, including the following:
- The ability to empty and restock its bile reserves in response to intestinal hormones like cholecystokinin.
- To assist in controlling the bile's chemical makeup (the percentage of water, bile salts and more)
- To regulate the small intestine's bile flow.
- To contract (secreting bile into the biliary tract and duodenum)

It's body cells would have 40 chromosomes and its gametes would contain half of the total genetic information, 20 chromosomes.
