    HEMOGLOBIN AND MYOGLOBIN I. OXYGEN CARRIERS A. Why do we need oxygen carriers? i. Cannot carry enough in blood to meet metabolic demand ii. Oxygen is very reactive – oxidizes iii. Oxygen cannot diffuse very easily (we have thick skin) B. Properties of a good oxygen carrier i. Binds oxygen at a high [O2] ii. Doesn’t oxidize cellular components iii. Gives up oxygen on demand C. Hemoglobin and Myoglobin i. Cooperativity 1. Hemoglobin needs to have high affinity to bind O2 in the lungs‚ but low affinity

    makes it such a powerful food Proteins Our bodies use amino acids as building blocks for protein. Depending on who you ask‚ we need 20-22 of them for this task Eight of them are considered essential‚ in that we have to get them from our food The remaining 12-14 we can make from the first eight via complex metabolic pathways in our cells Raw cow’s milk has all 8 essential amino acids in varying amounts‚ depending on stage of lactation About 80% of the proteins in milk are caseins- reasonably

    A macromolecule can best be described as an immense molecule‚ made up of thousands of covalently bonded carbon atoms. There are four classifications of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids. Each classification performs specific functions that allow cells to grow and survive. Macromolecules can be either split or bonded through dehydration synthesis or hydrolysis. Dehydration synthesis occurs when water is released‚ electrons become shared‚ covalently bonding two

    the digestive system and degrades proteins‚ making it an enzyme known as protease. [1] It is one of the three principal digestive proteinases‚ the other two being pepsin and chymotrypsin. [9] Trypsin primarily hydrolyses peptides into smaller building-blocks‚ mainly amino acids (these peptides are the result of the enzyme pepsin ’s breaking down the proteins in the stomach). This enables the uptake of protein in the food because peptides (though smaller than proteins) are too big to be absorbed through

    transmission decreases at a steady rate‚ until it reaches pH 8 where there is a steep increase from 30% to 39% as the enzyme has reached its optimum pH at 8. During the experiment in the boiling tube this pH had the deepest red colour as the most protein gelatine was broken up. This meant that in the colorimeter when testing to see what the light transmission‚ this pH let the least light through. For this enzyme as the pH increases the percentage of light transmission decreases until it gets to pH
