Answer:
A. Rifampicin is an example of an enzyme inhibiting drug, since it acts on the bacterial RNA polymerase, preventing the transcription and synthesis of proteins, so the bacteria is not viable and a human disease is controlled.
B. The drugs have specificity by microorganisms —target organisms— which are also smaller and more susceptible, while their effect is minimal or null in human cells and are not poisonous for them.
Explanation:
Bacteria, viruses, parasites and pathogenic fungi are microorganisms capable of producing disease in humans. One of the ways to fight infectious diseases is the use of drugs called antibiotics, capable of interfering with the development of microorganisms.
<u>Antibiotics or antibacterials are capable of preventing the synthesis of the bacterial wall or its reproduction, intervening in the synthesis of proteins</u>. They do this through enzymatic inhibition of these processes.
- Rifampicin is a drug capable of coupling itself to one of the sub-units of the RNA polymerase enzyme, changing its configuration and preventing its affinity for its substrate, the bacterial DNA. Rifampicin thus prevents the synthesis of proteins necessary for the development of the bacterium, which dies and thus manages to control an infectious disease.
- Drugs such as antibiotics act on specific bacterial functions —their target organism— by affecting the functions that allow them to live that allow them to live, as if they were poisoned. These same <u>drugs have little or no effect on human cells when administered in appropriate doses</u>. The few effects that are observed in human cells are not sufficient to kill them, but they do produce effects or secondary reactions, usually called adverse effects.
I believe it’s the Carboxyl group but confirm online. Hope this helped :))
The heat from hot liquid can make the cup it’s in hot. When you make some food in a pot with boiling water and stick a metal spoon/fork into the pot to move the food around the boiling water then makes the spoon/fork hot.
What is a substance that can be formed through the ionic bonding of an anion and a cation?
Answer; salt
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Humans should worry about atmospheric changes as they can affect their health in the sense of their lungs and other important body organs being damaged.
2. Positive effect of humans on ozone layer:
The fact that humas have stopped using CFCs has helped the ozone layer as these had a bad effect on this layer protecting us.
Negative effect:
One thing causing a bad effect on the ozone layer is carbon dioxide and the fact that humans are using it very often it causes the ozone layer to decrease in size meaning that the ozone layer won't be capable to protect us from harmful gases.
4. Scientists think that we should try stop the amount of carbon dioxide from rising because the increase in carbon dioxide leads to the earth becoming warmer and this can lead to a drastic change in the climate.
