Hi!

When the ocean reaches its saturation level of carbon dioxide, a couple of things will happen:

First, more carbon dioxide will remain in the atmosphere, and second, the ocean's pH will drop.

Carbonate and bicarbonate ions in seawater act as a buffer system which keeps the ocean's pH levels stable. When CO2 dissolves in seawater, it reacts with the ocean's buffer system in such a way that it produces two hydrogen ions, which lowers the pH. As more and more CO2 reacts with the ocean's buffer system and the system becomes saturated, less atmospheric carbon dioxide will cross over into the ocean. This excess CO2 will remain in the atmosphere and contribute to global climate change.

Hope this helped!

Select all statements that correctly describe hemoglobin and myoglobin structure. a. Molecular oxygen binds irreversibly to the

DIA [1.3K]

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:

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:c

Explanation:

I think because ca^+2

It’s loses the ion and if u look back u would see that a cation is a t charge but it’s not Goan that electron it’s losing that electron

The magnitude of an earthquake, measured on the Richter Scale, is M log1o T where / is the amplitude registered on a seismograph

just olya [345]

Answer: The magnitude rating for an earthquake causing an amplitude 10,000,000 times $I_o$ is 7.

Explanation:

Richter scale is defined as the scale which expresses the magnitude of earthquake on the basis of the seismograph oscillations.

The equation used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake on Richter scale is:

$M=log_{10}\frac{I}{I_o}$

where

I = amplitude registered on seismograph 100 km away from seismic center = $10,000,000I_o$

$I_o$ = small amplitude

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$M=\log_{10}(\frac{10000000I_o}{I_o})\\\\M=7$

Hence, the magnitude rating for an earthquake causing an amplitude 10,000,000 times $I_o$ is 7.

Which statement best describes the function of capillaries, arteries, and veins in the circulatory system? A. Capillaries delive

kondor19780726 [428]

The answer is a. The arteries are red and transfer blood to the heart. Veins are blue and transfer blood away from the heart and to all of the different parts of the body. The capillaries are in-between the veins and arteries and provide blood to cells.
