Answer: the "y=mx+b" form (called the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line).
Explanation: Finding the equation for a line is a common problem in geometry and trigonometry. There are two common situations where you are asked to find the equation for a line: either you'll be provided with one point on the line and the slope of the line, or you'll be provided two points on the line.
The "b" value (called the y-intercept) is where the line crosses the y-axis.
So point (x1, y1) is actually at (0, b)
and the equation becomes:
Start with
y − y1 = m(x − x1)
(x1, y1) is actually (0, b):
y − b = m(x − 0)
Which is:
y − b = mx
Put b on other side:
y = mx + b
Answer:
Pyruvate it turns into lactate almost immediately.
Explanation:
The anaerobic glycolytic system has 10 steps but they happen very fast. The end product is pyruvate but it turns into lactate almost immediately. Pyruvate turns into lactate so quickly that some refer to this system as the lactic or lactate system.
<h2><u><em>AIDS epidemic Russia</em></u></h2>
The number of people living with HIV in Russia now exceeds 1 million, according to official statistics. Most experts say the true figure is likely to be at least 1.5 million — around 1 percent of the total population of 146 million — because many people are unaware of their HIV-positive status.
Pernicious anemia produces red blood cells that are <u>large</u> and<u> vitamin B12</u> deficiency contributes to pernicious anemia.
Explanation:
When there is a lack of intrinsic factor, secreted in the parietal cells of the gastric mucosa or the stomach lining, vitamin B12 absorption from the stomach is affected.
Vitamin B12 is one of the key factors responsible for normal synthesis and maturation of fully functional red blood cells (RBCs).
The main function of the RBCs is to carry oxygen through hemoglobin to all parts of the body. In order to transport oxygen, the RBCs must be mature with normal shape (concave center and circular shape) and size.
When there is a lack of vitamin B12, the RBCs are not matured and immature, megaloblastic, large, irregularly-shaped red blood cells are formed and circulate in the blood. This also leads to macrocytosis of RBCs.
These cannot function as normal mature blood cells because of the irregular shape and cannot carry hemoglobin to transport oxygen.
