We are asked to convert 25 cg to units of hg.
1 cg = 1 centigram = 10⁻² g
1 hg = 1 hectogram = 10² g
The options given are:
a) 1 hg/ 10² g
b) 10² cg/ 1 hg
c) 10² hg/ 1 cg
d) 10⁻² g/ 1 cg
To convert 25 cg to 1 hg, we could convert the 25 cg to grams first, then grams to hg.
25 cg · 10⁻² g/ 1cg = 0.25 g
Here we have converted our number from cg to grams. We can use another conversion of grams to hg to complete the conversion.
0.25 g · 1 hg/ 10² g = 0.0025 hg
Therefore, the first conversion we used was d) 10⁻² g/ 1 cg.
Answer:
Tamoxifen is an irreversible, competitive inhibitor.
Explanation:
In order to binds to the active site of the estrogen receptor protein, tamoxifen have to compete with the other chemical compound, and inhibits the estrogen release, so it is a competitive inhibitor. Then, you said that when tamoxifen binds to the receptor, the protein is permanently deactivated, so it is also irreversible.
