"When a system at equilibrium is subjected to a disturbance, its composition adjusts so as to tend to minimize the effect of the disturbance" Any system that is in equilibrium in biology will be subject to Le Chatellier's Principle: eg:- 1.ATP <--> ADP + P 2. Reversible enzyme reactions: A<-->B<-->C<-->D etc. 3. Metabolic pathways: eg. glycolysis 4. Buffering: Hb + H+ <-->HHb; NaHCO3<-->Na+ + HCO3- 5.HbS +HbS +HbS +HbS ...<-->(HbS) polymers in sickle cell anaemia See link for full details.. http://www.uhd.edu/academic/colleges/sciences/naturalscience/documents/Uzman_Equilibrium_07.pdf |
