3-bisphosphoglycerate (1,3-BGP) to produce 2 NADH molecules and 2 protons. This occurs through glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. With the help of magnesium and phosphoglycerate kinase, 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is changed to 3-phosphoglycerate, which frees up an ATP molecule. An ATP molecule is released in step 10 when phosphoenolpyruvate, through pyruvate kinase, magnesium and potassium ions produce pyruvate. Overall, a net production of 2 pyruvate molecules, two NADH molecules and two…
In my IB English class, we are studying Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis, in which the main character, Gregor Samsa awakes one morning “from agitated dreams” and finds “himself, in his bed, transformed into a monstrous vermin” (Kafka 1). In the first pages, as Gregor contemplates his reformation personally before revealing himself to his family and boss outside his door, the fact that he has transformed into a bug remains known solely to himself, therefore existing as personal knowledge. In this…
It is conspicuous from various studies that the metal based nanoparticles is found to be an effective antimicrobial agent against several common pathogenic microorganisms.(Nanoparticles and potential apps, Biomedical applications,Antimicrobial activities of silver nanoparticles, Green synthesis, A review on plants extract mediated, Antimicrobial Properties).It is multidisciplinary area where in nanotechnology has led to major developments in health and medicine due to the integration the…
Maria Carranza Mr. Krone Chemistry 11 February 2016 Which is the Best Contact Solution? Everybody know someone who has glasses and contacts, maybe it’s your friend, your mom or dad or maybe a sibling, but does one really know what is going on in that contact case? Maybe one has daily's or maybe to change every month when one open that new package of contacts, does one really know how long that solution stays good? Does anyone? Let’s talk about your eyes. In the essay, the writer shows you…
The words nutrient and nourish are both derived from the Latin word nūtrīre which means ‘to feed, nurse, support and preserve.’ In other words, it’s really important to nourish your body with the right nutrients to support and preserve your health. While plants get their nutrients from the soil, we get ours from the foods we eat. Yet many of us don’t consider whether or not the foods we put into our bodies are full of healthful nutrients or not. We’re more concerned with taste and if we can…
weld defects such as porosity, cracks and distortions commonly encountered in fusion welded joints [8]. Al alloy with magnesium as the major alloying elements constitute a group of non heat treatable alloys (AA5XXX series) used for structural materials in automotive, aircraft and marine applications. Welding of this alloy using conventional technique leads to vaporization of Magnesium, which causes compositional changes in the weld seam [9]. Hence, to regain the Mg content (from AA5XXX series…
The concrete is the second most used product world-wide after water. The construction industry is one of the vital sectors in the nation’s economy. The concrete mainly contains ordinary Portland cement as a primary binder and production of ordinary Portland cement causes 7% of the total greenhouse gases in to the earth’s atmosphere (Malhotra 2002) and production of the ordinary Portland cement produces carbon-di-oxide in mainly two ways , they are burning of fossil fuels and the other is…
the inability of the body to properly absorb vital nutrients and vitamins that enables the immune system to perform its functions. The patient in this case study takes cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) 1000mcg/mL by intramuscular injection one a month, magnesium sulfate by injection due to chronic hypomagnesemia, and vitamin D3 by oral capsule once a day to help manage osteopenia. According to Aranow, vitamin D not only plays a role in bone homeostasis but has been found to support the function of…
Every year during winter months, icy surfaces create a dangerous problem for drivers and pedestrians. Icy roads and sidewalks can become very hazardous for travel. A solution must be implemented to mitigate risks associated with winter travel. This problem is relevant to the experiment since I will be testing different methods of melting ice. The solution resulting from the experiment can be used throughout the world to make our roads safer. The literary reviews for this experiment are from…
contains 26% of carbohydrates, 12% dietary fiber and 20% of the raw almonds were made up of high-quality protein which contains essential amino acids. (Samadi, 2013) Almond is very rich in nutrients which are Vitamin E and B, calcium, potassium, magnesium, riboflavin, iron and…
