Explanation:
The equation that shows the equilibrium reaction of carbon dioxide in the blood is the following one:
<h3>
CO₂ + H₂O ↔ H₂CO₃ ↔ H⁺ + HCO₃⁻</h3><h3 />
This equation describes the bicarbonate buffer system which regulates the pH of the blood.
- During hypoventilation, the CO₂ produced by the cells through metabolism is not released fast enough, so CO₂ levels in the blood increase. In this situation, the equation shifts towards the right, and an excess of protons is produced, therefore decreasing the pH and causing acidosis.
- During hyperventilation the breathing is very rapid and CO₂ is exhaled from the body at a very fast rate. In this situation, the CO₂ levels in the blood decrease, the equation shifts towads the left and the concentration of H+ thus decreases, causing alkalosis.
It should be D. Correct if me if I’m wrong.
Answer:
E. The man had one dominant and one recessive allele.
Explanation:
Woman marries a man with Wilson disease, a autosomal recessive disorder. The woman doesn't have the disease, the son got it. Therefore, the man has another dominant allele.
To calculate momentum one would obtain it according to the following formula
P = m • v
P = (2000 kg) • (10 m/s)
P = 20,000 kgm/s.
