If the heart becomes damaged or weakened, how will this affect the body’s systems?

The oxidizing agent our bodies use to obtain energy from food is oxygen (from the air). if you breathe 15 times a minute (at rest), taking in and exhaling 0.5 l of air with each breath, what volume of air do you breathe each day? air is 21% oxygen by volume. what volume of oxygen do you breathe each day?

Mouse liver cells were homogenized and the homogenate subjected to equilibrium density-gradient centrifugation with sucrose gradients. fractions obtained from these gradients were assayed for marker molecules (i.e., molecules that are limited to specific organelles). the results of these assays are shown in the figure. the marker molecules have the following functions: cytochrome oxidase is an enzyme involved in the process by which atp is formed in the complete aerobic degradation of glucose or fatty acids; ribosomal rna forms part of the protein-synthesizing ribosomes; catalase catalyzes decomposition of hydrogen peroxide; acid phosphatase hydrolysis monophosphoric esters at acid ph; cytidylyltransferase is involved in phospholipid biosynthesis; and amino acid permease aids in transport of amino acids across membranes. a) name the marker molecule and give the number of the fraction that is most enriched for each of the following cell components: lysosomes; peroxisomes; mitochondria; plasma membrane; rough endoplasmic reticulum; smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

Works together in the synthesis, modification, packaging, and transport of lipids and proteins
