Epilepsy is a relatively common disorder, affecting between 0.5-1% of the population, and frontal lobe epilepsy accounts for about 1-2% of all epilepsies. The most common subdivision of epilepsy is symptomatic partial epilepsy, which causes simple partial seizures, and can be
The internal pH of most cells is near neutral. A) water to break down into H+ and OH-. B) rapid fluctuations between acidic and basic conditions within the cells. C) the buffers produced within the body to affect these cells. D) enzymes outside of these cells to function. E) enzymes within the cell to act at peak efficiency.
The pH within the lysosome is about pH 5, substantially less than that of the cytosol (~pH 7.2). All the enzymes in the lysosome work best at an acid pH. This reduces the risk of their digesting their own cell if they should escape from the lysosome.
