How do oxygen and carbon dioxide cross capillary walls?
muminat
The answer is diffusion.

The most important mechanism that enables oxygen and carbon dioxide (but as well other small molecules such as glucose, amino acids, wastes) across capillary walls is diffusion. Diffusion is a net movement of molecules through some barrier from an area of high concentration to the area of low concentration. When blood rich in oxygen reaches capillaries close to the cell, now there <span>is </span>more oxygen in the capillaries than in the cells and by diffusion, oxygen will pass capillary walls and enter the cell. Since blood in capillaries lacks in carbon dioxide, it will easily leave the cells and enter the blood. It should be taken into consideration that capillary walls may be fenestrated, continuous, and discontinuous which can affect movement through them.

You are working with a mixed population of cells that includes some cells expressing CD95 on their surfaces. Design an experimen
Julli [10]

Answer:

Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting or FACS is a method that allows us to sort out different cell types on the basis of fluorescence emitted by cell membrane components bound compounds.

In the case of CD95 integral protein which is known for highly glycosylated, if use antibodies against cells with CD95 marker, will not identify glycans and can’t be targeted by antibodies as antibodies only recognize protein structures.

Therefore, two different proteins should be used in order to get the correct sorting of cells. One of these would bind to these glycosylations, and the other would be antibodies (with a fluorescent tag) against first.

Which effect does a gradual decrease in pH from 13 to 1 have on the action of amylase?
tatiyna

Answer:

A decrease in pH is too acidic compared to optimum pH for amylase activity. The hydrogen ion changes amylase sites of activity and amylase activity become low. At pH 13 to 1 which is acidic, reduces the activity of amylase because the hydrogen ion changes amylase activity sites and render it's action low which will denatures amylase and make it ineffective.

Explanation:

Amylase refer to enzymes that catalyses or breakdown starch into sugars. General, enzymes are biological substances that speed up the rate of chemical reactions.

Enzymes generally are affected by pH. The most favorable pH is the optimum pH which make amylase to be effective or enzymes.

A high pH or low pH has effect on the enzymes and will reduces enzymes activities. A low pH will cause the hydrogen ion to alter the enzymes sites and reduce their activities while high pH will cause the hydroxides ion to alter the enzymes activity sites.
