Biochemistry

The nitrates in nitrogenous waste reduce the oxygen carrying capabilities of the haemoglobin in the blood of animals. Since plants do not have haemoglobin they can absorb it to help them make proteins.

Yes, some do. For example, CO2 is an inorganic compound containing carbon.

Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport where molecules move across a cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. These proteins create channels or carriers through which specific molecules can pass, helping them move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without requiring energy input from the cell.

Metals rust when they are exposed to oxygen and moisture, causing a chemical reaction that forms iron oxide on the surface of the metal. This process is known as oxidation and weakens the metal over time, leading to corrosion.

Heating a protein can cause it to denature, meaning it loses its tertiary structure as the interactions that maintain the shape are disrupted. This unfolding can lead to loss of function as the active site may become distorted and unable to bind substrates.

The components are a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar, and a phosphate. The nitrogen compound is called a nucleobaseand combines with the sugar to form the nucleoside, and the phosphate binds to the carbon in the sugar.

23 singles. Actually, for the astute, there are 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome.

Steroids and fat-soluble vitamins are classified as derived lipid since they can be inactivated by saponification reaction, the structure therefore is not ester type but it is an alcohol type.

The basic life activities, also known as Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), include tasks such as eating, grooming, dressing, bathing, toileting, and transferring (moving from one place to another). These activities are essential for an individual to live independently and maintain their well-being.

The nucleic acid DNA is made up of a pentose sugar called deoxyribose, nitrogen bases (adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine) plus a phosphate group. The nucleic acid RNA is made up of a pentose sugar called ribose, nitrogen baes (adenine, uracil, guanine and cytosine) plus a phosphate group.

Boiling can denature enzymes in the liver, meaning it can alter their shape and structure. This can render the enzymes inactive or less effective in carrying out their biological functions.

The Dna in prokaryotic Cells floats in the Cytoplasm as a single circular Chromosome.

Yes, all Prokaryotes (bacteria and archea and others) and Eukaryotes (e.g Insect, Animal, and Plant Cells) contain Dna in the Form of Chromosomes; without Dna there will be no reproduction.

The cellular outside protective wall is called the cell membrane or plasma membrane. It acts as a barrier between the cell's internal environment and the external environment, regulating the passage of substances in and out of the cell. The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins that help maintain the cell's structure and allow for cell communication.

A human somatic cell typically contains 46 chromosomes.

Triglycerides are composed of one glycerol molecule bonded to three fatty acids.

Lamp light can positively affect plant growth just like any light. However, if the light is green, the plant will not absorb it because it reflects it. Artificial light can also cause some of the plant to grow closer to a light source, which is also known as phototropism.

Purdue Pharma reformulated OxyContin in 2010 to make it more difficult to abuse by crushing or breaking the pill. This change was in response to concerns about the widespread abuse and misuse of OxyContin, which had become a major public health issue in the United States.

A genetic code in the DNA which consists of nitrogen bases in the DNA.

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) has a structure that is similar to that of Adenosine triphosphate (ATP); the only difference is that ADP has two phosphate groups instead of three. When a Cell has energy available, it can store significant amounts of energy by adding a phosphate group to the ADP molecules producing ultra-energy rich ATP.

it is a protein in a quatenary structure or three d sturucture with in the cell wall and transports macro molecules, hydrophobic molecules or molecules that are going agains the concentration(respectively are to big to go through, repel the cell wall, or are going against the traffic of osmosis) by using those molecules as a substrate( something that fits into a protein) and moves to the other side of the wall

The basic structure of an amino acid is HXN-CHR-CO2H, where, in the 20 most common biological amino acids, X=hydrogen. The R group attached to the amino acid base is what makes up the difference.

Chromosomes are made up of DNA, proteins, and small RNA molecules. DNA contains the genetic information that is passed on from one generation to the next, while proteins help in structural support and regulation of gene expression. Small RNA molecules are involved in processes such as gene regulation and maintenance of chromosome structure.

Enzymes in the body are proteins that act as biological catalysts, facilitating chemical reactions in cells. They help speed up reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. Enzymes are crucial for various physiological processes such as digestion, metabolism, and cell signaling.

ATP (made in your mitochondria) stores energy in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group attached to it. engery is stored in all bonds but this is the min one broken to use the energy in the cell
