xxMikexx [17]3 years ago
5 0

The activity of some enzymes requires vitamins. This is because vitamin derivatives contribute to the biochemical mechanisms of these enzymes. These vitamin derivatives belong to a class of molecules known as cofactors, which are organic molecules (called coenzymes) or metallic ions, that assist in the catalytic activity of an enzyme.

List and describe 4 features of the ocean floor
joja [24]

Answer:

<h2>Humans beings haven't touched the ocean floor.</h2><h2>but the features is -The deep ocean is dark, very cold and has tremendous pressure from the overlying water.</h2><h2>Scuba divers can explore only to about 40 meters, while most submarines dive only to about 500 meters. Scientific research submersibles have explored the ocean’s deepest trenches, but most are designed to reach only the ocean floor.</h2><h2>Today much of our exploration of the oceans happens using sonar and remotely operated vehicles.</h2><h2>Features of the ocean include the continental shelf, slope, and rise. The ocean floor is called the abyssal plain. Below the ocean floor, there are a few small deeper areas called trenches. Features rising up from the ocean floor include seamounts, volcanic islands and the mid-oceanic ridges and rises.</h2><h2 />

Sickled red blood cells are believed to block blood that is trying to exit the corpus​ spongiosum, which for men​ causes:
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Answer is B. Priapism.

Explanation:

Corpus spongiosum are the three cylinders encased in the bucks fascia. They run through the glass and shaft of the penis, and during erection, they contain almost 85-90% of theology volume.

Priapism can be described as persistent erection of the penis, which is caused by excessive blood flow to the penis or when blood is trapped inside the penis blood chambers I. e, corpus spongiosum.

Priapism can be of two types, they are

1. High- flow Priapism : this is caused when the artery supplying blood to the penis is damaged, thereby, causing it to be oversupplied with oxygenated blood. This type is not painful and can be treated by adopting cold therapy, the use of ice packs.

2. Low-flow Priapism : This occurs when old blood is trapped inside the penis blood chambers. This type is very painful and require urgent medical attention.

Note that, the second type of priapism,low-flow priapism, is caused in the case of a sickled-cell person, because the shape of the blood cell can easily trap blood in the penis.

How does carbonic anhydrase change the reaction between carbon dioxide and water?
Natalka [10]

It catalyzes the reaction by making it fast (both forward and reverse reactions).

Naturally, the reaction between CO2 and H2O is very slow in the formation of carbonic acid. However, in the blood, due to the presence of the enzyme, the reaction is much rapid by millions of factors. This is because the enzyme reduces the activation energy of the reactants.  The enzyme is important in respiration of cells and in pH regulation,
