The clotting of blood depends upon a chain of reactions that involves many different proteins a faulty gene toward anyone of these proteins gives rise to what disease?
Hemophelia
How was a key chain made?
A chain is made by forming loops of metal from a wire to form the links of the chain, the loops are then interlinked and the open ends are welded closed.
What is difference between prothrombin and thrombin?
Prothrombin is an inactive precursor protein produced in the liver, while thrombin is an active enzyme involved in blood clotting. When prothrombin is cleaved by an enzyme called thrombin during the clotting process, it is converted into thrombin. Thrombin then plays a crucial role in converting fibrinogen to fibrin, initiating blood clot formation.
Explain the blood clotting mechanism of the body?
The story of how blood clots, is the story of rapid-fire reactions. The first step in the chain is some kind of injury to a blood vessel, that makes a rough spot in its lining. Normally the lining of a blood vessel is smooth. Almost immediately, damaged tissue cells in the injured blood vessel wall release certain clotting factors into the plasma. The factors rapidly react with other factors already present into the plasma to form prothrombin activator. At the same time this is happening, platlets become sticky at the point of injury and soon acculmalate near the opening in the broken blood vessel, formimg a soft, temporary platlet plug. as the platlets accumulate, they release addditonal clotting factors, formimg even more prothrombin activator.
What other words are associated with clotting?
Medical terms associated with clotting include thrombus, coagulation, and anticoagulant. The word "cascade" indicates the chain of chemical events involved with clotting.
Where is the giant panda in the food weban animal food web interlinked by the food chain?
It is not The cookie monster and the panda are the only species alive that are not on the food chain they are way to awsome
What is the symbolism if any of 3 consecutive linked circles Not all 3 interlinked but linked as a chain would be?
"One of the wheels fell off my Audi."
Do nuclear chain reactions happen in only uranium?
No, nuclear chain reactions can happen in several types of fissile materials, not just uranium. Other examples include plutonium and thorium. These materials can undergo fission reactions and sustain a self-sustaining chain reaction.
What is the process in which one initial reaction triggers a growing number of subsequent reactions?
That process is called a chain reaction. In a chain reaction, the products of one reaction act as reactants in the subsequent reactions, leading to a self-sustaining series of reactions. This can result in a rapid release of energy, as seen in nuclear reactions or certain chemical reactions.
Where is the giant panda in the food web and animal food web interlinked by the food chain?
The El Yunque rainforest has many food webs so I cant name them
What is chains of chemical reaction?
Chains of chemical reactions are sequences of reactions where the product of one reaction becomes the reactant of the next reaction in the chain. These reactions are often interconnected as part of a larger process. One example is the chain of reactions in a combustion reaction, where the heat produced from one reaction triggers subsequent reactions.
How does tannic acid stop bleeding?
The Tannic acid helps to form a blood clot by contracting blood vessels. Amr ^_^Actually, blood clotting is the result of a "cascade" effect of different factors in the blood. Once activated they "domino" -- one activates the next in the chain -- until the blood clots. There are two pathways to blood clotting (coagulation) -- an intrinsic pathway and an extrinsic (external) pathway. Tannic acid acts to activate the extrinsic pathway and set the factor "cascade" in motion to clot the blood.
