Vinil7 [7]4 years ago

Answer:

The ATPs produced during Chemeiosmosis, in the chloroplast is needed during Calvin cycle to fix carbon for production of CHO, protein and fats  during conversion of 3C-glyceride phosphate(GP) to 2C- triose phosphate.(TP) .

The ATPs is needed for this reduction to take place in the presence of NADPH(which is oxdized to NADP).

Therefore, if the final electron acceptor is removed, there will be no electron transport chains which generated the PMF, for pumping H+ across into the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast, to generate the electrochemical gradients, needed for  the energy for ATPase synthase enzymes,to synthesize ATPs production.

Therefore, the removal of the electron acceptor (oxygen) leads to stoppage of electron transport chain, and hence loss of ATP s, and therefore, no Carbon fixation as CHO, or protein, or fats.

Answer:

Polycythemia Vera

Explanation:

Polycythemia Vera can be described or known to be a type of blood cancer. And its effect is that, it makes the bone marrow to make or produce too many red blood cells, which can thicken the blood, slowing its flow, and can cause serious problems, such as blood clots, strokes, weakness among others.

Some of the symptoms of Polycythemia vera are

* Headaches, dizziness, and weakness.

* Shortness of breath and problems breathing while lying down.

* Feelings of pressure or fullness on the left side of the abdomen due to an enlarged spleen (an organ in the abdomen)

* Double or blurred vision and blind spots.

In conclusion, it should be understood that there is no cure for polycythemia vera. And treatment only focuses on reducing the risk of complications.

Why are covalent bonds form when an electron is completely lost or gained from an atom
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Covalent bonds are the types of Bond which is formed by sharing of an electron between two atoms of same element or two different elements. The bond which is formed by the completely lost or gained of an atom is known as ionic bond.

Explanation:

The most common example of covalent bond is formed from carbon atom. The valence of carbon atom is 4. Therefore, it is very hard to gain or lose an electron from the carbon atom. Therefore, the carbon tends to share the electron instead of completely losing or gaining the electron.

Ionic bond is very common and it can be formed by many elements from the periodic table. Ionic bond is more stable and stronger when compared to the covalent bond in nature.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

(1) It is known as a prosthetic group as heme consist of a protoporphyrin ring and a central iron atom. A prosthetic group is a specific non-polypeptide unit which is required for some protein's biological function.

(2) Coenzyme.

(3) It is known as an example of a cofactor as it is not a permanent part of the enzyme.

(4) It is known as a prosthetic group as it is permanently attached to the enzyme.

What conditions prompt hemoglobin to release oxygen? select the three answers that are correct.
Basile [38]
When blood is in the lungs,
where oxygen is plentiful, oxygen easily binds to the first subunit and then quickly fills up the remaining ones. Then, as blood circulates through the body, the oxygen level drops while that of carbon dioxide increases. In this environment, hemoglobin releases its bound oxygen.
