What is the difference between extrinsic and intrinsic clotting?

Biology
1 answer:
KengaRu [80]3 years ago
8 0
They're two different clotting pathways that use different factors. Though, the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways come together at factor X and eventually result in fibrinogen (factor I)  being converted into a fibrin clot by prothrombin (factor II). 

Extrinsic begins with factor VII and intrinsic begins with factor XII

Caffeine prolongs and intensifies the effects of epinephrine. Which of the following potential mechanisms of action of caffeine
kherson [118]

Answer:

a. inhibits cAMP phosphodiesterase, the enzyme that converts cAMP to AMP.

Explanation:

The phosphodiesterases are a group of enzymes that are capable of breaking phosphodiester bonds such as those between nucleotides in nucleic acids. The Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a second messenger involved in intracellular signaling pathways. This molecule (cAMP) is hydrolyzed by the cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase, which catalyzes the enzymatic breakdown of phosphodiester bonds (i.e., hydrolyzing cAMP to 5-AMP). The cAMP levels are modulated by the balance between its generation and the degradation via cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase.

Hormones play an important role in regulating blood glucose levels. what is an example of this?
Ber [7]
The human body wants blood glucose (blood sugar) maintained in a very narrow range. Insulin and glucagon are the hormones which make this happen. Both insulin and glucagon are secreted from the pancreas, and thus are referred to as pancreatic endocrine hormones. The picture on the left shows the intimate relationship both insulin and glucagon have to each other. Note that the pancreas serves as the central player in this scheme.  It is the production of insulin and glucagon by the pancreas which ultimately determines if a patient has diabetes, hypoglycemia, or some other sugar problem.(i hope this can help you) :)
