Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: To characterize ornithine in terms of nitrogen content
Concept introduction: Urea cycle is a cyclic biochemical pathway that involves the production of urea using ammonium ions and aspartate molecules as nitrogen sources. It converts toxic ammonium ion to urea which is then excreted from the body in urine. Urea cycle can be explained in terms of the nitrogen content of all the compounds participating in the urea cycle as follows:
(b)
Interpretation: To characterize citrulline in terms of nitrogen content

If they are brought together to x = x, the potential energy is related to the total force P by dU dx = P Given this, qualitatively sketch the variation of U with x. What happens at x=x? What is the significance of x = x, in terms of the potential energy? 0 P, Force 19 Attraction Total Repulsion x, Distance Figure 2. Variation with distance of the attractive, repulsive, and total forces between atoms. The slope dP/dx at the equilibrium spacing xe is proportional to the elastic modulus E; the stress σb, corresponding to the peak in total force, is the theoretical cohesive strength.arrow_forward
