Chapter 15, Problem 11TYU
Summary Introduction
To analyze: Benefits of having similar segments on X and Y chromosomes.
Introduction: Humans are diploid organisms having 23 pairs of chromosomes out of which the last two, X and Y-chromosomes are known as sex chromosomes whereas the rest are known as autosomes. These sex chromosomes are passed on from parents to progeny as they carry the genes which are important for the development of traits and characteristics in the offspring. The females have both XX- chromosomes whereas the males have XY-chromosome.

Identify the areas of the lipid bilayer that are hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Draw a membrane with two transporters: a proton pump transporter that uses ATP to generate a proton gradient, and a second transporter that moves glucose by secondary active transport (cartoon-like is ok). It will be important to show protons moving in the correct direction, and that the transporter that is powered by secondary active transport is logically related to the proton pump.arrow_forwarddrawing chemical structure of ATP. please draw in and label whats asked.
