    Signs and symptoms of central diabetes insipidus are increased urine production‚ excessive thirst‚ and confusion and changes in alertness due to dehydration and higher than normal sodium level in the body‚ if the person is unable to drink (National Library of Medicine). Signs and symptoms are extreme thirst‚ excessive urine production (polyuria)‚ dehydration‚ muscles pains‚ weakness‚ irritability‚ lethargy‚ and getting up in the middle of the night to urinate (WebMD). For children bed-wetting may occur

    amino acids are all attached to a central carbon called an alpha carbon. Through a process called dehydration reaction‚ amino acids are able to bond to each other to form polypeptides. For dehydration reaction to occur‚ the carboxyl group of one amino acid must be adjacent to the amino group of another. When they are adjacent to one another‚ an enzyme can cause them to join by catalyzing dehydration reaction. This same process repeated over and over again will yield a polypeptide‚ the polymers of

    Discussion The dehydration of an alcohol to an alkene follows a two step elimination reaction. The first step is determines the rate of the reaction and is dependent on the formation of the carbocation. In this experiment‚ the carbocation intermediate forms as the alcoholic hydroxyl group is protonated with acid‚ and dihydrogen oxide leaves. After this unimolecular dissociation step‚ a proton from one of the adjacent carbons is captured to reform the acid catalyst‚ and the elimination reaction is

    This lab will allows the comparison between elimination reactions under acidic and basic conditions through an analysis of two separate reactions: an acid-catalyzed dehydration of 1-butanol and 2-butanol using sulfuric acid and a dehydrobromination under basic conditions using potassium tert-butoxide of 1-bromobutane and 2-bromobutane. The products of all four reactions will be analyzed with gas chromatography‚ which separates organic compounds to see how each reaction’s product are formed under

    Campbell’s Biology‚ 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 5 The Structure and Function of Large Biological Molecules In Chapter 5‚ the principles of chemistry covered in earlier chapters are applied to the understanding of biological polymers and lipid membranes. The emphasis is on properly linking monomers and their polymers‚ and on the structural and functional diversity of the different polymer types. Particular attention is given to protein structure‚ because this is central to understanding subsequent
