Chapter 8.5, Problem 8.3CIAP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The difference between a diastolic and systolic pressure should be given and also the blood pressure range 180/100mmHg is normal or not should be checked.

Concept introduction:

Pressure can be expressed in different units. But it is normally reported in mmHg(millimetersofmercury)

Systolic blood pressure: It is the maximum pressure formed in the artery just after contraction since the heart forces the maximum amount of blood into the artery.

Diastolic blood pressure: It is the minimum pressure formed at the end of the heart cycle.

The device which is used to measure blood pressure is sphygmomanometer.

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?
