Answer:
c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.
e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.
f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.
Explanation:
The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.
Myoglobin binds oxygen
The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:
C is the answer I’m pretty sure
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
energy produced per second = 500 J
Heat produced = 500 x .8 = 400 J per second.
If m be the mass of water evaporated per unit hour
m x latent heat = 400 x 60 x 60
= m x 2.42 x 10⁶ = 1.44 x 10⁶
m = .595 kg per hour
b )
volume of water = 595 mL
bottles = 595 / 750
.8 or 4/5 of bottle. per hour.
Answer:
0.184 atm
Explanation:
The ideal gas equation is:
PV = nRT
Where<em> P</em> is the pressure, <em>V</em> is the volume, <em>n</em> is the number of moles, <em>R</em> the constant of the gases, and <em>T</em> the temperature.
So, the sample of N₂O₃ will only have its temperature doubled, with the same volume and the same number of moles. Temperature and pressure are directly related, so if one increases the other also increases, then the pressure must double to 0.092 atm.
The decomposition occurs:
N₂O₃(g) ⇄ NO₂(g) + NO(g)
So, 1 mol of N₂O₃ will produce 2 moles of the products (1 of each), the <em>n </em>will double. The volume and the temperature are now constants, and the pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles, so the pressure will double to 0.184 atm.
