Chapter 27, Problem 43P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason for alterations of given ratios by alcohol consumption should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alcohol consumption leads to physiological dysfunctions, which are caused due to binding of alcohol on the specific sites of neuronal proteins. Such bindings occur in water-filled pockets in the brain, resulting in alterations of protein’s conformations and functions.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The cause of hypoglycemia and acidosis should be determined in hungry individual.

Concept introduction:

Alcohol consumption leads to physiological dysfunctions, which are caused due to binding of alcohol on the specific sites of neuronal proteins. Such bindings occur in water-filled pockets in the brain, resulting in alterations of protein’s conformations and functions.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The reason for no hypoglycemia in fell fed person should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alcohol consumption leads to physiological dysfunctions, which are caused due to binding of alcohol on the specific sites of neuronal proteins. Such bindings occur in water-filled pockets in the brain, resulting in alterations of protein’s conformations and functions.

Do schwann cells produce or act as myelin in the peripheral nervous system? I know that they encase and wrap around axons, but where does the myelin come into play?
The enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to lactatein skeletal muscle cells using NAD/NADH during anaerobic “balanced” fermentation.Answer the following questions about this reaction. (a) Write out the two reductive half reactions and indicate the E ̊' for each half reaction. Write out the full balanced reaction for the pyruvate to lactate rxn and indicate the ∆E ̊' for the reaction. (b) What is the free energy change under standard state conditions for thisreaction? Which direction is spontaneous?(c) Assume that in skeletal muscle cells the ratio of [NAD+] to [NADH] is 100, and that the[pyruvate] = 0.40 mM and [lactate] = 4.0 mM. What is the free energy change (∆G')for the conversion of pyruvate to lactate? Indicate the direction in which the reactionis spontaneous under these cellular conditions.
Why did the authors worry about the temperature-dependent solubility of the carriers in thebilayer? How did the authors determine whether the effect of freezing the lipid bilayer wasto decrease the solubility of the carriers (nonactin and valinomycin) or whether the effectwas to impair their ability to diffuse through the membrane (decrease their mobility)?
