Biochem Module 3 - Practice Solution Manual Latest Update 2025 Already Passed
Affinity Means - Answers Stickness for oxygen
high altitudes - Answers no much oxygen
developing baby get their oxygen from - Answers its mother so its hemoglobin needs to be a little more
sticky for hemoglobin
high affinity - Answers stickiness of oxygen
myoglobin job is to - Answers store oxygen not transport it like muscles
hemoglobin job is to - Answers pick up oxygen in the lungs and deliver it to your tissues
hemoglobin has 4 - Answers protein subunits
myoglobin has 1 - Answers protein subunits
each protein subunit has a - Answers heme group and in each heme group their are iron and iron binds
with oxygen
hemoglobin can carry and transport __ oxygen of molecules at a time while myoglobin can carry __
oxygen molecules at a time - Answers 4, 1
cooperatively - Answers feature of hemoglobin that enables it to pick up oxygen in the lungs while
dropping it off in other tissues.
ex: table with chairs
___ binds to the same site of hemoglobin that oxygen binds. However, it binds much stronger than
oxygen and cooperatively of 4 subunits make it look occupied. because it has such a high affinity for
hemoglobin that___ is unlikely to get up from the table its like holding oxygen has a hostage - Answers
carbon monoxide
___ will pick up oxygen very readily but it can never drop it off of the tissues that need it, thats why
carbon monoxide exhibits its harmful effects - Answers hemoglobin
when __ binds to carbon monoxide it creates a pink color. example: person looks pink = carbon
monoxide poisoning - Answers hemoglobin
high affinity for oxygen
stores oxygen
,1 subunit - Answers myoglobin
lower affinity for oxygen
transports oxygen
exhibits cooperatively
4 subunits - Answers hemoglobin
which class of amino acid is most likely to be located on the exterior of hemoglobin? why?
Tip: polar= hydrophillic
nonpoler= hydrophobic
charge - Answers polar, charge
because hydrophilic
sickle cell anemia results when someone inherits 2 mutant copies of the HBB gene, which is on chromes
11. what is the mode of inheritance?
Tip: chromsome11 means autosomal trait
sex link is on x chromosome
inherit 2 mutant copies= recessive
you only have to get 1 bad copy to get disease= dominant - Answers autosomal recessive
we want hemoglobin to pick up and stick to oxygen. in the___ hemoglobin has a high affinity for oxygen.
- low hydrogen
- find in relax state
-higher ph
, - low carbon dioxide - Answers lung
we want hemoglobin to drop off oxygen, so we need it to be less sticky or have a lower affinity.
-most likely found in tense state
-low ph= carbon dioxide react with water to form acid leads to this
-high carbon dioxide=active tissue produces
- lots of hydrogen ion=because of low ph - Answers muscle
-muscle
-tense
-subunits are further apart
-favored at low ph
-heme is domed
-stabalized by 2,3-bpge - Answers deoxygenated hemoglobin
-lung
-relaxed
-subunits are closer together
- favored at high ph
-heme is planar
-stablaized by carbon monoxide - Answers oxygenated hemoglobin
___ by product of metabolism ( higher levels found in pregnant women) facilitates the tense state of
hemoglobin, encourages mom hemoglobin to deoxygenate to give oxygen to baby - Answers 2,3-bpg
shift I the curve at different phs - Answers bohr effect
shift to the left - Answers higher affinity= higher ph
shift to the right - Answers lower affinity= lower ph
which of the following would be expected in the muscle? - Answers there is a high concentration of
carbon dioxide, high concentration of hydrogen ions, and hemoglobin shifts to the T state
