Tertiary structure

The injuries have several negative effects on the body. Certain radiologic imaging can be used to evaluate the severity of the injuries and the types of treatment that will be needed. Blast injuries are divided and classified as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. These injuries can happen separately or in different combinations. Primary blast injuries are caused by the direct effect on the tissue of the blast overpressure wave. This is a shock wave over and above normal atmospheric…

explaining increased transport at higher temperatures. (a) What is diffusion and how does it occur? (b) Why does it occur most rapidly at grain boundaries? Diffusion in solid materials occurs because of the movement of atoms through the lattice structure. The smaller atoms push/place themselves in the spaces between larger atoms when in a high heat environment. There are essentially two types; interstitial and vacancy. Diffusion occurs more rapidly at grain boundaries because there are weaker…

the eight themes in biology, the relationship between structure and function is a key component. For example, the three-dimensional structure of a protein not only defines its shape and size, but also its function. Proteins consist of a long chain of 20 amino acids folded up into complex shapes. Each nonpolar amino acid folds into the interior of the proteins during the folding stage, as they are hydrophobic. The primary and secondary structure determines the hydrophobicity of a protein. Each…

School Wide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS) incorporates three tiers of prevention in order to be effective for the entire school population: primary or universal, secondary or targeted, and tertiary or intensive. The three tier model is important so that at risk or high risk students receive additional needed supports. As the Kerr and Nelson textbook states in Chapter 2, “not all students (or staff) are going to be successful with just the universal level of intervention.” The function of…

levels and increase LDL levels which can lead a human to a higher chance of heart disease. Proteins are another type of Macromolecules. They are built by amino acids which are held by peptide bonds and are divided into 4 different structures – Primary, Secondary, Tertiary and Quaternary. They have many functions in our body (e.g. repairing/building muscle tissues, antibodies, etc.) and one of these functions is to serve as catalysts. These catalysts are called enzymes. They speed up chemical…

change that is perceived by employees, and include enhancing job control, improving social support and reducing role ambiguity (Randall, Nielsen & Tvedt, 2009). In Pamela’s work situation, she is experiencing stress as a result of the organisation’s structure or features and because she does not have the skills needed to respond to work-related stressors. Because of these two issues, she is experiencing significant problems with her…

Introduction- Throughout evolutionary history, advances in molecular biology allow molecular biologist to discover new genetic diseases. Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disorder in which there is a single amino acid substitution, which alters the structure and function of the hemoglobin. Although one might think that this disease only affects the circulatory system it actually affects many of the body’s systems, disrupting its functional processes. People who have sickle cell anemia…

Aam Aadmi Bima Yojana (AABY) is a life insurance scheme also largely for the below poverty line population and aims at the unorganised sector. The most current version of the scheme was launched in January 2013 by merging two previous life insurance schemes – Janashree Bima Yojana (JBY) covering 45 occupational groups and – Aam Aadmi Bima Yojana (AABY) covering solely poor landless households in rural areas. The merging of these two schemes, allows for a more extensive and uniform process,…

is a plausible conclusion because a reaction involving a tertiary alkyl halide will follow SN1 mechanism.…

(Gilles, 2003). The healthcare system is then often divided into three sectors; primary, secondary, and tertiary care (Bodenheimer and Grumbach, 2009). Primary healthcare involves the treatment and prevention of common health problems in a community based setting. Secondary care focuses on the healthcare problems requiring more specialized treatment, such as surgery, in a clinical setting. Tertiary care is focused on the treatment of rare or complex disorders and surgeries. (Bodenheimer and…
