Chapter 36, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The magnitude of the exerted force by given kinesin molecule should be expressed in dynes.

Concept introduction:

Formula used to determine the force is,

F = 6 πηaυ

Where F represents force, η represents viscosity, a is radius and υ is velocity.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The amount of work performed in 1s should be expressed in ergs.

Concept introduction:

Formula used to determine the work done is:

Work done = Force×Displacement

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The energy in ergs associated with the hydrolysis of given amount of ATP should be determined and comparison should be done with the actual performed work.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you When carbamyl phosphate is joined to L-ornathine, where does the energy for the reaction come from?
