You know that it takes many passes through the liver for a digoxin dose to be metabolized. Although low-er drugs do not undergo much first pass hepatic metabolism after absorption eventually they can be completely metabolized by the liver. In addition, a prodrug such as the blood pressure medication enalapril vasotec must be bioactivated in the liver through phase 1 metabolism.

Describe the different examples of active and passive transport
andrew11 [14]
Hi there!

Active Transport - Through the use of ATP, active transport pumps molecules against a particular concentration gradient. Active transport occurs from a low concentration solute and moves to a high concentration of solute. Two examples of active transport would be endocytosis and exocytosis.

Passive Transport - Active transport is the movement of molecules down a gradient. Unlike passive transport, it goes from high to low concentration and does not require energy (such as cellular energy). Some examples would be osmosis and diffusion.

I hope this helped!

Darina [25.2K]

It is not possible for Sarah and Thomas to develop cystic fibrosis but it would be possible for one of their children to inherit it. Both Sarah and Thomas are heterozygous and in a heterozygous pair of alleles the dominant allele is the one that will present. Because Sarah and Thomas both have the heterozygous allele combination Ff they are carriers which means that they will not experience symptoms of cystic fibrosis but they could pass cystic fibrosis onto one of their children.

What happens to your blood ph if you go into ketosis?
Semenov [28]

Ketosis is a process that starts when your energy intake hasn't been enough, so ketone bodies, molecules produced by the liver, supply you with energy.

During ketosis, the ph of the blood decreases which means that the bloods acidity increases, which is not healthy.


Hope it helped,
