It has a globular structure. Myoglobin contains a heme (prosthetic) group which is responsible for its main function (carrying of oxygen molecules to muscle tissues). Myoglobin can exist in the oxygen free form, deoxymyoglobin, or in a form in which the oxygen molecule is bound, called oxymyoglobin.
SHOW LESS. Fundamentals of Differential Equations presents the basic theory of differential equations and offers a variety of modern applications in science and engineering.
One of the most important applications of differential calculus is to find extreme function values. The calculus methods for finding the maximum and minimum values of a function are the basic tools of optimization theory, a very active branch of mathematical research applied to nearly all fields of practical endeavor.
