Answer:
H+
Explanation:
Hemoglobin is the major protein of red blood cells. It has many exposed amino groups and carboxylic groups at its surface. These NH3 and COOH groups serve as weak acids and bases respectively and allow hemoglobin to serve as a buffer to maintain the pH of the RBC cytoplasm.
As the exposed amino groups of hemoglobin protein bind to the H+ ions, the free H+ concentration of the cytoplasm of RBC is reduced leading to a buffer action to maintain the pH.
Answer:
Something that an antibody or T-lymphocyte binds to
Explanation:
As per the definition, antigens are the substances or molecules that are capable of inducing an immune response. When our immune system detects any unwanted substance or molecule in our body, the specific type of antibody is made against that antigenic substance and the antibody made against it binds to the antigen so that the other immune cells can recognize it and destroy it and protect us form its harmful effect. T-cell are also involved in recognizing antibodies and specific T-cell can bind to the antigen.
Answer:
(a) Phosphatases remove the phosphate from GTP on GTP-binding proteins, turning them off
Explanation:
- A molecular switches are molecule that can be reversibly shifted between two or more stable states.
- The molecules may be shifted between the states in response to environmental stimuli, such as changes in pH, light, temperature, an electric current, micro-environment, or in the presence of ions and other ligands.
