INDEPENDENT PAPER. CALCIUM: A REACTIVE AND STRENGTH ELEMENT. Mariana Escobar Introduction to chemistry I- with Lab CHE 101-360 Dr. Rebbeca Hoenigman April 19th 2018 Calcium, Ca. Molar Mass 40.08 Chemical reaction: calcium with air: 2Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2CaO(s) Chemical reaction: calcium with water: Ca(s) + 2H2O(g) → Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g) Calcium is a familiar element for most of the people at the moment of looking to a periodic table, including oxygen and hydrogen. Because…
the glucose that is in our food is transformed into fructose. This happens because the glucose needs to be broken down to get ATPs. After it is transformed into fructose, the fructose is then transformed into G3P. After this, the glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate is brought into the harvest phase. The final step happens in glycolysis happens in the harvest phase. The G3P is broken down again to get 2NADH. The 2NADH is then brought to the bank to be transformed once more into ATP. This is the thing…
Macromolecules Macromolecules are complex carbon based molecules that all have different functions and monomers, there are four different groups of macromolecules that include, Nucleic Acids, Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Lipids. Carbohydrates are polymers made from monosaccharides, which are simple sugars like glucose and fructose, these are used as a good source of energy. Monosaccharides, the monomer of carbohydrates, are just one sugar unit, they are the simplest form of carbohydrates, but…
For my anatomy class I was asked to write a paper of how a body system of my choice affects the other body systems. I chose the endocrine system, it is made up of many different glands, but every gland still does a part in making sure that organs in the other body systems are well balanced. I liked the endocrine system when we went over it in class and thought it would be an excellent choice. Especially since most of it has to do with the brain and I love to study the brain. I will cover all the…
Bone profile includes testing the levels of calcium, inorganic phosphate, albumin, and alkaline phosphatase. [2]. Lipid profile includes testing HDL cholesterol, LDL calculated, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol ratio. [3] Liver profile incudes testing total protein, albumin, total…
to it. Use a damp cloth but don't saturate the stone. It is best to use a cleaner that is as close to pH neutral as possible on natural stone. If dish soap isn't doing it and you need something more potent, try an alkaline cleaner like trisodium phosphate (TSP). Always avoid acidic cleaners on…
What is glycogen storage diseases type I (GSD1)? Glycogen Storage disease type I (GSD1) is the most common type of glycogen storage disease detected in most people. An inherited defect in the enzyme glucose – 6 – phosphatase (G6Pase) is the sole cause of this metabolic disease. GSD1 can be categorized even further into two sub categories based on its location and other defects, GSD type Ia and GSD type Ib. Without G6Pase properly functioning, there would be a break in the final step of…
People do not often think about the consequences of their actions. The world we live in is the only one that we have, so we must preserve it in the best way possible. However, in their desire to rule over the laws and will of nature, humans have introduced substances into the environment that threaten all lifeforms, from the smallest insect and the tallest tree to the most unsuspecting person. The opening chapter of Silent Spring sets the scene of a beautiful American farm town that seemed to…
Every exterminator knows that it is the most efficient rat-killer. ... Sodium fluoride is entirely different from organic calcium-fluoro-phosphate needed by our bodies and provided by nature, in God's great providence and love, to build and strengthen our bones and our teeth. This organic calcium-fluoro-phosphate, derived from proper foods, is an edible organic salt, insoluble in water and assimilable by the human body, whereas the non-organic sodium fluoride used in fluoridating…
projection, bowed legs, and thickened wrists and ankles. People who have the disease generally appear different from those who do not because of the skeletal deformities in the body. Rickets can be inherited by a gene causing low levels of phosphate in the blood. Low phosphate levels make it more difficult for a person to absorb vitamin D from the sun, thus causing the deficiency. Due to the disease being X-linked, males are more likely than females to inherit it. One function of the skeletal…
