Following several days at high altitude the body responds to the decreased oxygencontent of the atmosphere by increasing the amount of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate itproduces. Based on this information and refering to the graph below, identify thecorrect response from the options.Y (fraction saturation)1.00.80.60.40.20.0020Oxygen Binding plot4060p02 (torr)80100A) Curve y=high altitude and gives a greater release of oxygen to the tissuesB) Curve x = high altitude and gives a greater release of oxygen to the tissuesC)Curve y=high altitude and allows more oxygen to be bound at low oxygenlevelsD) Curve x = high altitude and allows more oxygen to be bound at low levels

Hemoglobin molecules exposed to high levels of glucose areconverted to glycated products. The most common, referred to as hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), contains a b-chain glycatedadduct. Because red blood cells last about 3 months, HbA1Cconcentration is a useful measure of a patient’s blood sugarcontrol. In general terms, describe why and how HbA1Cforms.
By what mechanisms is ethanol eliminated from the blood? Discuss the chemistry of these processes (oxidation/reduction, gas solubility, etc.) in detail, as well as the toxicity consequences.
A. What would be the effect of barbiturate abuse on oxidative phosphorylation ? B. What is the biochemical basis of carbon monoxide fatility?
Similarly, the change in the concentration of metabolites during oxidation of beta-hydroxybutyrate leads to anincrease in the reduction potential at CoQ from −4 to +12 mV. What is the significance of these changes inreduction potential?
Propionic acidemia has a relatively high prevalence in South Africa, among both black and white families. This fatal disease is often diagnosed by the elevated presence of propionyl carnitine, propionylglycine and methyl citrate in blood and urine. Discuss the metabolism involved and origin of these markers.
In 2-page worth of words (around 500), discuss CYCLAMATE's regulation, allowable levels, and what group of people are at high risk for the side effects of CYCLAMATE in the body.
Your current Vmax (4x10-3 A/S) from the Michaelis-Menten plot has the units of A/s and was determined using 0.1 mg of ADH in a total volume of 1.25 mL. Use the Beer-Lambert equation followed by simple conversion to express your estimated Vmax in (mol )/s per 1 mg ADH. The molar absorptivity of NADH at 340 nm is 6220 L/(mol*cm).

The respiratory quotient (RQ) is the ratio of the Liters of CO2 produced to the Liters of O2 consumed by an individual (CO2 exhaled in liters)/(O2 inhaled in liters). It is used as a measure of basal metabolic rate and can indicate which types of molecules are being used by a person to produce energy. For glucose (C6H12O6), this value is 1 as the equation for the complete oxidation of glucose is: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O For fatty acids that are degraded through beta oxidation and fed into the TCA cycle, the RQ value would be ______ the values for glucose oxidation. Fill in the blank with: a) higher than b) the same as c) lower than
