Biology

Zina [86]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Pilocarpine can affect the heart since it shares the drug's binding site with the traditional receptors that it seeks to effect under treatments of xerestomia, dry eyes or Sjorgen's syndrome.

Explanation:

The effect is Parasympathomimetic in the exocrine glands, but these glands have the same receptors as the cardiac tissue, so you can see harmful cardiac side effects.

It increases adverse effects with ß-adrenergic antagonists, thus generating heart failure, and even kidney failure indirectly due to the possible risk of chronic heart failure.

Witch step of cellular respiration will not take place in the absence of oxygen
Over [174]

The answer is; glycolysis

This process converts glucose molecule to pyruvate. It is an oxygen-independent pathway, unlike the Krebs cycle. Glycolysis occurs in the cell cytoplasm while the Krebs cycle (aerobic pathway) occurs in the mitochondria. In the presence of oxygen, the product of glycolysis, i.e pyruvate, is fed to the Krebs cycle.  If oxygen is unavailable the pyruvate is converted to lactate.

The main difference between these two groups of amino acid is that essential amino acids cannot be made by the animal's body and must be ingested in the diet unlike the nonessential amino acid which can be made by the animal's body.</span>
