Answer:  C. At a pH of 8, the enzyme starts to denature and changes shape.

Explanation: The activity of the enzyme increases as the pH increases from 0 to 7 i.e in acidic medium but as the pH reaches 8, the enzyme activity starts decreasing which means the enzyme is not able to function properly.

The enzyme is made up of proteins which is composed of chain of amino acids. Thus in basic pH i.e pH above 8, the bonds of the amino acids break and the enzyme is said to get denatured as the shape of enzyme has changed.

Autonomy vs shame and doubt

The autonomy vs shame and doubt age is a phase during the development of children. It occurs between the ages of 18 months and three years old. During this stage, the children start to become more independent and start making some of their own decisions. These decisions include what to wear, what to eat and what to play with. Having overbearing parents hinders the development of this stage of development.

Mr. Helms was admitted to the hospital with chest pains and shortness of breath. His wife was panicked since her 72-year-old hus
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

1- the purpose of blood flow-circulatory system- is to convey  Oxygenated blood, oxygen bonded with haemoglobin in the RBC with Nutrients - and distributed these through the arteries  and capillaries  away from the heart,  to reach the cells and tissues, and transported the wastes of theses cells and tissues , with C02 through the veins back to the heart and the kidney.

2. During diastole,deoxygented blood from the inferior and superior vena cavae entering the R.atrium, passes through the tricuspid valve into the Right Ventricle. Simultaneously, oxygenated blood returning through the pulmonary veins enters the left Atrium,emptied  through the bicuspid valve into the Left.Ventricle.

During systole, the two ventricles contracts. The Right ventricle contracts, the pressure of the blood forces  the tricuspid valve to close,and therefore de -oxygenated blood pushes the pulmonary  valves to open and blood passes through the pulmonary artery to reach the lungs where exchanges of oxygen with carbon dioxide occurs.The blood is now oxygenated and returns to the left atrium via pulmonary veins.

Simultaneously, the left ventricle contracts,the oxygenated blood it contains forced the bicuspid valve to close so that blood is  forced through the aortic valve  to empty into the aorta into  the systemic circulation,branches of the carotid artery supplies the heart from the aorta.

The Whole cycle continues.

2a) Which of the following statements about pyruvate oxidation IS TRUE?
Darina [25.2K]

The true statements are:

  • Substrate level phosphorylation ocvurs during Pyruvate oxidation
  • 32 ATP molecules can be made by cellular respiration but only 2 ATP molecules when oxygen is lacking
  • Electrons move from protein to protein due to increasing electronegativity in the electron transport chain
  • ADP is phosphorylated in the matrix of the mitochondria during oxidative phosphorylation
  • ATP inhibits pyruvate dehydrogenase by feedback inhibition

<h3>What is glucose oxidation?</h3>

Glucose oxidation refers to the process in the cells in which glucose molecules are oxidized to form ATP and carbon dioxide in the presence of oxygen.

The first stage of glucose oxidation is the conversion to pyruvate.

Pyruvate is oxidized to acetylCoA.

AcetylCoA enters the citric acid cycle to produce reducing equivalents, NADH for the electron transport chain.

  • The true statements about pyruvate oxidation is that there is substrate level phosphorylation during the process
  • When there is sufficient oxygen, 36 ATP molecules can be made (theoretically) by cellular respiration. However, when oxygen is lacking, only 2 ATP molecules are made.
  • In the electron transport chain of cellular respiration, electrons move from protein to protein due to increasing electronegativity
  • During oxidative phosphorylation, ADP is phosphorylated in the matrix of the mitochondria
  • Aerobic respiration can be regulated by feedback inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase by ATP.
