What is the physiological importance of buffers? If there is such a buffer in the blood, what happens if the pH of the blood sud

denly goes down? Suddenly goes up?
Biology

4 0

Answer:

Buffers are the solution that is used to maintain the pH of the solution. It resists the change in the pH. Since, many of the chemical reactions are very specific to pH and temperature so it is very important to maintain the pH of the solution.

The bicarbonate ions and hydroxide ions serves as natural buffers in the blood. If the pH of the blood goes down below the normal then bicarbonate ions are released to maintain the pH of the blood.

If the p of the blood goes more than normal then the hydroxide ions acts as a buffer and maintains the pH of the blood.

Changing one base in a gene could have the
saw5 [17]


answer: 2) sequence of building blocks of a protein found in a cell.

Just random FYI:

- it is a mutation, that is generally not looked upon as being severe or detrimental to the person

-by changing the base by either adding or deleting from a protein strand will cause the protein to be useless

-frameshift mutation deals with DNA sequence being shifted. For example: a DNA strand looks like a ladder. If one of the rungs on the ladders gets skipped and the next ladder rung gets the code that the previous rung should have gotten, then that is what a frameshift mutation is. Hopefully that makes sense. It's easier to explain if there was a picture.

there are other types of mutation but I won't get into them.


Hopefully this helped and good luck.

In meiosis 1 what happens during anaphase?
icang [17]

Anaphase I begins when the two chromosomes of each bivalent (tetrad) separate and start moving toward opposite poles of the cell as a result of the action of the spindle. Notice that in anaphase I the sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres and move together toward the poles.

You are conducting a CRISPR-Cas9 experiment. You transform a cell with Cas9 and a guide RNA (contains the scaffold and guide seq
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Cas9-sgRNA cannot align with targeted DNA sequence

Explanation:

Without a PAM sequence, the CRISPR-sgRNA (small guide RNA) complex cannot align with the targeted DNA sequence. Therefore, you cannot perform experiments (e.g. gene editing) using CRISPR-Cas9.
