When cellular respiration occurs within a cell, carbon dioxide is formed as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is transported o

ut of the cell and absorbed by the blood stream. There, the carbon dioxide undergoes a chemical reaction and forms carbonic acid within the blood. When the carbonic acid reaches the capillaries in the lungs, the enzyme carbonic anhydrase helps reverse the reaction, and the carbonic acid is converted back to carbon dioxide and water. Which of the following would most likely happen if a person's body stopped producing carbonic anhydrase?

Answer:

Even we don`t have options to choose, the correc answer would be: The blood`s acidity would increase and become toxic.

Explanation:

Carbonic anhydrase plays a key role in the regulation of PH and fluid balance in different parts of our body.

In the stomach lining, it plays a role in secreting acid; and also helps to make pancreatic juices alkaline and our saliva neutral.

These are some functions that wouldn`t be developed in our body with the absence of carbonic anhydrase.

I hope it helps!

If a plant were to absorb a substance that readily reacts with carbon dioxide in the stroma, the dark reactions would be most li
Assoli18 [71]
The right answer is the dark reaction would stop happening.
The Calvin cycle (or dark reactions, independent of the sunlight) makes it possible to manufacture glucose, an energy molecule, from carbon dioxide. This is called carbon fixation.There are three reactions of this cycle take place in the stroma of chloroplasts: the first of which is the fixation of carbon dioxide. which is a limiting step in this cycle.If a substance other than the components of the dark reactions absorbs and uses carbon dioxide, the carbon cycle will not be able to occur for lack of one of these ingredients which is the CO2.

Comparison of the excretory system of a rat, frog and human
yaroslaw [1]
In general, the function of the excretory system is,  removal of nitrogen waste products from the bloodstream and transport out of the body through urine. It maintains the balance of fluids and electrolytes, control of red blood cells, regulation of blood pressure and also the formation of red bone marrow.
In humans, the excretory system is responsible for removing waste from the body. Metabolic waste is being removed from the blood and an appropriate amount of water nutrients and water and salt are being retained.
In frogs, the excretory system consists of a pair of ureters, kidney pairs, cloaca, and urinary bladder. Frogs take in liquid waste from kidney which removes wastes and then the extra water becomes urine which then it is collected in the urinary bladder through ureters.
The urinary bladder is present in ventral to return then both open into the cloaca.
