T2: Mechanisms
12 important questions on T2: Mechanisms
Indicate what is true about mechanisms of toxicity
-inhibition of oxygen binding to hemoglobin by CO is an example of non covalent binding causing toxicity
-Lipid peroxidation is can be caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS)
-Methemoglobinemia is caused by chemicals that cause electron transfer that oxidizes the Fe in hemoglobin from Fe2+ to Fe3+
Which chemicals act by non-covalent interactions?
What is true about reactive oxygen species (ROS)
n the Haber Weiss reaction superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide are converted to hydroxyl radicals
Reactive oxygen species are toxic because they are able to modify biomolecules
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
The formations of reactive oxygen species (ROS)
What is lipid peroxidation
What interaction does Carbon monoxide (CO) has?
Example of non covalent binding
How does tetrodotoxin interact
This toxicant blocks the Na channels in the neurons. Therefore you will get paralysed or die.
Example of non covalent blocking
How does saxitoxin interact
Example of non covalent blocking.
How does aflatoxine B1 interact?
it will be activated through metabolism and is the most common cause of liver cancer. It causes a mutation on the P53 tumor suppressor gene and therefore a tumor can develop easier.
How does acetylcholinesterase (AchE) interact?
Example of covalent binding, covalent irreversible AChE inhibition
What is the difference between apoptosis and necrosis?
Necrosis is cell death which is no longer in control. This results in breaking down the membrane and the inside of the cell will come out.
Apoptosis is sort of repair
Necrosis is sort of disrepair
What are the variations in toxic response
- age
- nutrition and life style diseases
- gender
- combined exposures
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
