Liver is the largest gland in human body. It is also the largest (internal) organ in our body and can weigh up to 1.5-1.6 kg for a human adult. That is, about 1/50th of the body weight is because of liver.
Answer:
Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
Answer:
b. Ngb-H64Q has a higher affinity than hemoglobin for both carbon monoxide and oxygen. However, Ngb-H64Q binds to carbon monoxide with a higher affinity than to oxygen.
Explanation:
A study of neuroglobin (Ngb), a hemoglobin-like protein present in the brain, was done at the University of Pittsburgh by a team of researchers. Upon testing the red blood cells of a mouse that contained carbon monoxide, they found that Ngb-H64Q was significantly better at removing CO from hemoglobin than 100-percent oxygen treatment. Hence Ngb-H64Q binds to carbon monoxide with a higher affinity than to oxygen.
Answer:
Bacteriophage
Explanation:
Antimicrobial resistance is the leading world concern for the medicine producing companies. The antimicrobial drugs are meant to kill the microbes but microbes are also developing resistant to these drugs. So we need a high dose of that particular drug to kill the same organism next time. The antimicrobial medicines are applied to all microorganism without distinguishing them but bacteriophage is emerging as solution for the problem.
Bacteriophages are viruses that attack the bacteria. Bacteriophages are highly specific to bacterial cell and attack the receptors on the membrane of specific bacteria species. So these can be used to kill or target the specific species of bacteria instead of applying the antimicrobial drug to all bacteria.
