An inhibitor of the sodium-potassium exchange pump would disrupt the normal balance of sodium and potassium ions inside and outside of the cell. This would lead to an alteration in the resting membrane potential (RMP), potentially causing it to depolarize or hyperpolarize depending on the specific effects of the inhibitor.

What inhibitor binds into the active site of an enzyme not allowing the subrtate to bind?

This would be a competitive inhibitor. It can be a structural analog of the substrate. This type of inhibition can be out competed by adding more substrate. A competitive inhibitor increases the Km of the enzyme.


What effect would an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase activity would have?

An inhibitor of phosphodiesterase activity would increase the levels of cyclic AMP and/or cyclic GMP in the cell. This may lead to prolonged signaling cascades, affecting various physiological processes such as smooth muscle relaxation, platelet aggregation, and neurotransmitter release.


How does a non-competitive activator affect enzyme activity?

Well, unlike competitive inhibitors the non-competitive inhibitors will not compete the active site of the enzyme with substrate . Instead, it will combine with the enzyme somewhere except the ative site and alter the whole shape of the enzymes therefore the active site of substrate and enzyme are not the same and therefore no enzyme-substrate complex can be formed and the enzymatic effect can't be restored becausr the enzymes are now denatured


Will orajel affect a breathalyzer?

No, Orajel will not affect a breathalyzer test as it is a topical anesthetic used for dental purposes and does not contain alcohol or substances that would be detected by a breathalyzer.


Would co2 be reduced if the leaf is covered with a plastic bag?

Covering a leaf with a plastic bag would prevent the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen with the atmosphere, limiting the leaf's ability to photosynthesize and reduce carbon dioxide. However, extended lack of gas exchange could harm the leaf's health and eventually lead to a decrease in photosynthetic activity.

Can you take Cialis with your Mao inhibitor?

No, bupropion (Wellbutrin or Zyban) is a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor and shouldn't be taken with an MAO inhibitor, or 14 days after one has stopped taking an MAO inhibitor. Doing so would put one at a greatly increased risk of serious side effects such as seizures heart problems. Not a good idea :)

What would happen if the guard cells are closer together?

The stomata would be narrower, thus osmosis would occur less, thus photosynthesis would be less. The stomatal pore will become narrower. Gaseous exchange to and fro stomata will be reduced. This will affect the rate of photosynthesis in green plants.
