Structure of hemoglobin and how does oxygen bind to it

Biology
1 answer:
vivado [14]3 years ago
3 0
Hemoglobin is a protein that exists in the red blood cells. Hemoglobin contains iron atoms in its chemical structure which are responsible for binding with oxygen or carbon dioxide. In its final structure, Hemoglobin contains 4 sites that can bind to oxygen. Despite that, it's difficult for a hemoglobin molecule to bind with four oxygen atoms at the same time because the structure will be complicated. Hemoglobin combined with oxygen is called oxyhemoglobin, while that combined to carbon dioxide is called carboxy hemoglobin.

Answer:

The Golgi complex is compromised      

Explanation:  

The Golgi complex helps in the process of synthesis and packaging of proteins and lipids, especially those proteins that are for exportation. The organelle´s function is to manage the recently synthesized proteins, to transform them, and to export them to other places.

Different proteins are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum and sent to the Golgi complex in vesicles, where it happens the final association of carbohydrates with proteins. Finally, protein is transported from the Golgi complex to its final destiny. Proteins destined to a certain place are packaged all together in the same vesicle and sent to the target organ. In the case of membrane proteins, they are packaged in vesicles and sent to the cell membrane where they get incrusted.

By being affected by the achondrogenesis 1a, the Golgi complex loses its functions and is incapable of finishing the protein synthesis and transport process, affecting other cells and their functions.

Carbon ______________ are processes that add carbon to the atmosphere. Carbon ______________ are processes that absorb carbon
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Carbon sources

Carbon sequestration

Explanation:

Carbon sources are regions that produces atmospheric carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide is naturally added to the atmosphere when organisms respire, decompose, rocks with carbonate are weathered and volcanoes erupt.

Carbon sequestration is the process of taken and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide. The method helps in reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which in turn reduces global climate change.
