When a shunt drains to the abdomen
What is shunt in electrical engineering?
In electrical engineering, shunt means 'parallel'.
How is a shunt coil installed?
'Shunt' is an archaic term, meaning 'in parallel with'. So a 'shunt coil' is connected 'in parallel' with... With what, of course, depends upon what sort of device you are talking about. For example the field coil of a d.c. shunt-connected motor has its field winding connected in parallel ('shunt') with the supply.

What is another name for pentose pathway?
pentose phosphate pathway (also called phosphogluconate pathway, or hexose monophosphate shunt [HMP shunt])
How does defective Hexose monophosphate shunt results in increase of RBC fagility?
The Hexose monophophate shunt is involved in the production of Glutathione, this molecule helps relieve the oxidative stress that RBC come under from carrying O2. with out this anti oxident RBC can be damaged.
What is the main function of the hexose monophosphate shunt in the erythrocyte?
erythrocyte membrane lipid prone to oxidative damage caused by free redicals. HMP pathway produce NADP+ H which provide reducing equivalent to antioxidant like catalase, supeoxide dismutase and glutathione.

What does amp stand for in biology?
adenosine monophosphate
What is carbon sugar called?
hexose
What are the differences of Long shunt vs short shunt generator?
In long shunt the shunt field winding is in parallel to both generator and series field. In short shunt the shunt field is in parallel to generator only.
