In systemic tissue fluids, the enzyme carbonic anhydrase catalyzes the reaction co2 + h2o → h2co3 (which then can dissociate into h+ and hco3–). in fact, co2 released from cells is converted to hco3– ions and travels in that form in the bloodstream. hco3– is reconverted to co2 + h2o in the pulmonary capillaries by the same enzyme, and there the co2 is exhaled. how is it possible for the same enzyme to catalyze reverse reactions?

Imagine that a new planet is discovered with two moons of equal mass: moon a and moon b. the mass of the new planet is greater than the combined mass of its moons. moon a is farther away from the new planet than moon b. what is the planet's gravitational pull on moon a compared to the planet's gravitational pull on moon b? the planet's gravity repels moon a with a greater force than it repels moon b, which is why moon a is farther away. the gravitational pull on moon b is greater than on moon a because moon b is closer to the new planet than moon a. the gravitational pull on moon b is greater than on moon a because moon b is farther away from the new planet than moon a. the gravitational pull on moon a is the same as the gravitational pull on moon b because distance does not affect the planet's gravity.
