A inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase would:______

Biology

Naily [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

c. increase blood pH.

d. interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin.

Explanation:

A inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase increases the pH of the blood due to prevent the production of carbonic acid from the carbon dioxide formed during cellular respiration. This carbonic acid decreases the pH of the blood so inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase is responsible for the increase in the pH. It also interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin because oxygen bind with hemoglobin in low pH but the pH is higher due to inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase.

Answer:

d. interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin

Explanation:

Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are commonly used as diuretic drugs (usually for treatment against high blood pressure), acting in the carbonic anhydrase enzime, in the proximal tubes of the kidneys.

To achieve this effect, these diuretics inhibit the reabsorption of sodium bicarbonate, and consequently, reducing its concentration in the blood due to the high excretion of this compound.

Thus, by eliminating more bicarbonate, an increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood plasma can occur, which makes it difficult to fix oxygen in the red blood cells, in addition to causing metabolic acidosis, by decreasing blood pH.

So the correct alternative is "D", while the others are false.

Skeletal muscle cells exhibit a phenomenon known as recruitment, in which the number of muscle cells recruited to contract is pr
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

No, cardiac muscle tissue does not exhibit recruitment.

Explanation:

The cardiac muscle tissue does not recruit cells to contract. The reason is that the cardiac muscle contracts all its cells at once and with the same force. It does not have to recruit other cells since it does not have to lift objects of different weights. The heart's contraction aims to pump blood and to do it rhythmically. The heart has a natural peacemaker, the sinoatrial node. The Sinoatrial node transmits an electrical impulse to all the heart to contract it all at the same time and continuously. For these reasons, the cardiac muscle does not need recruitment.
