Answer: Antibodies are proteins that are found in the body on the surface of red blood cells and in the blood plasma ,they are very sensitive to foreign bodies and bad viruses and bacteria,when they notice the presence of anything that poses harm or a threat to the body system,they track it down and fight/destroy it.

Antibodies also play crucial role in hemostasis(stoppage of bleeding) in the sense that when the body is wounded or when someone gets a cut antibodies that are found in the plasma and some substances found in the platelets are released to play a role in sending signal to the blood clotting factors in the blood to be released to arrest the bleeding and prevent the person from bleeding out their entire blood.

I am trying to determine reactants going into the electron transport chain. Is this right?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Yes, this is correct.

Explanation:

  • In each glycolytic pathway, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase produces 1 molecules of NADH as a result of reduction of NAD+.
  • Pyruvate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate to Acetyl CoA producing 1 molecule of NADH per pyruvate oxidized.
  • In Kreb's cycle, isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and malate dehydrogenase reactions produce 1 molecule of NADH each. Furthermore, succinate dehydrogenase reaction produces a single molecule of FADH2 per FAD reduced.
  • Since, we began with 2 molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, we  multiply the above figures by 2 and get a total of 10 NADH and 2 FADH2.
