Name the enzyme that facilitate the transportation of carbon dioxide in the red blood cells as bicarbonate ions?
Carbonic anhydrase
Carbon dioxide transported in the blood?
describe how carbon dioxide is transported in the blood
What effect might a molecule that interferes with the action of carbonic anhydrase have on your body?
The carbon dioxide and water react to form about 600,000 molecules of carbonic acid per second
What Enzyme speeds up reaction of CO2 and H2O to form carbonic acid?
The only good answer is too complicated for explanation here. It is advisable to read a good article on the biochemistry of photosynthesis. To get a preview: certainly there are more than 100 enzymes involved in more than 20 steps (or 'groups' of reactions) to form one of the many (>100) carbohydrates by photosynthesis.
How is carbon dioxide transported in the blood plasma?
In Rbc's by the action of carbonic anhydrase the CO2 is converted to carbonic Acid in presence of water but being instable it is dissociated to H and Hco3 and with this form it is present in plasma about 67% is transported as this bicarbonate ion
Which enzymes in rbc breaks h2co3 down to water and carbon dioxide?
Carbonic Anhydrase
Is diffusion the dominant method of carbon dioxide transport?
Enzyme carbonic anhydrase forms carbonic acid (H2CO3) which dissociates into H+ and HCO3. 70% of carbon dioxide is transported in plasma as HCO3. BICARBONATE IONS.
What is acetazolamide?
Acetazolamide (a-set-a-ZOLE-a-mide) is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme that shifts the rate of reaction to favor the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into carbonic acid, bicarbonate ions, and free protons.
Carbonic anhydrase breaks down carbonic acid into water and carbon dioxide gas The specific area of the enzyme where carbonic acid attaches is known as the?
Substrate
What chemical assists in the formation of the bicarbonate ions from carbon dioxide and water?
I suppose that you think to carbonic anhydrase.
Name the enzyme that facilitate the transportation of carbon dioxide in the red blood cells as bicarbonate ions?
Carbonic anhydrase
How is carbon dioxide transported?
Carbon Dioxide is transported in three forms: Carbonic acid, carbamino compounds, and dissolved gas.
Carbon dioxide transported in the blood?

What effect might a molecule that interferes with the action of carbonic anhydrase have on your body?
The carbon dioxide and water react to form about 600,000 molecules of carbonic acid per second
What effect might a molecule that interferes with the action with carbonic anhydrase have on your body?
The carbon dioxide and water react to form about 600,000 molecules of carbonic acid per second
Which protein is the most important physiologically in the transport of carbon dioxide by blood?
Sincerely, carbonic anhydrase enzyme. Followed by hemoglobin
