Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is basically a condition wherein the human body is incapable of digesting food due to lack of digestive enzymes produced by the pancreas. This is found in humans affected with cystic fibrosis and Shwachman- Diamond Syndrome and is also common among dogs. The consequences or side effects of this medical condition are the following:
a) frequent diarrhea
b) gassy stomach and bloating
c)stomach pain
d) greasy and foul smelling stools
e)weight loss

Why is water capable of forming a hydrogen bond
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Because the water molecules are small, many of them can surround one molecule of the solute and form hydrogen bonds.

Explanation: Because of the attraction, the water molecules can pull the solute molecules apart so that the solute dissolves in the water.

Describe one way in which ribosomes interact with organelles. How would having a larger number of ribosomes benefit a cell? In y
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Ribosomes are the machinery of protein synthesis in the cell. They are associated with different organelle of the cell. They are also found free-floating in the cytoplasm of the cell.

The organelle which ribosomes interact are plasma membrane in prokaryotes and endoplasmic reticulum(ER) in eukaryotic cell. Ribosomes are present on the surface of the ER and helps in protein synthesis in the ER. In prokaryotes, there is no ER so it is associated with plasma membrane and perform protein synthesis.

The specialized function of ribosome is to perform protein synthesis and these proteins are necessary for cell because protein are important to make enzymes that regulate the metabolism of the cell. So if protein synthesis stops cell will not able to perform important metabolic activities to survive and it will die.

Having a large number of ribosomes benefits cells because it fastens the protein synthesis process in the cell. So large amount of protein can be produced in less time.

) You treat some cells with a proteolytic enzyme that is too large to penetrate the cell membrane (Set 1). Another group of cell
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Proten W

Explanation:

SDS-PAGE gel is a method used for the separation of proteins in which proteins are separated based on their length (smaller proteins move faster through the gel, due to less resistance).

When treated with proteolytic enzymes, proteins are cut and become short fragment. This means that the fragments formed after the use of proteolytic enzymes, will move faster and thus, migrate a longer distance. Proteolytic enzymes in Set 2 cells will act only on plasma membrane proteins (because they cannot penetrate), while in Set 2 they will act on both, plasma membrane and interior proteins. Control group will have only the large fragments (not treated with enzyme).

Protein W travels the same distance on a gel of proteins from Set 1 and Set 2, but different than control group. It means that the proteolytic enzyme worked the same on Set 1 and Set 2.
