Document Summary
Bms 1004 intro to cell and molecular biology recitation. Ex: boiling point, freezing point depression, osmotic pressure, not concentration. Alkalosis has less co2, less respiration, leading to deep breathing (hyperventilation) Acids-sour and gives off hydrogen when they react with metals like zinc, not bitter or slippery. Acidic lower than 7; basic greater than 7; neutral=7. Buffer-any solution that resists a change in ph. Blood ph-7. 4 (acidosis has ph less than 7. 4 ; alkalosis has ph greater than 7. 4) Solute dissolves in solvent (ex: salt water, salt is solute, water is solvent) How ph affects enzyme?-cause active site to unfold. Alcohol affects body with swelling of cells, headache, dehydration.
