Textbook Question
Chapter 18.2, Problem 1TC
Uranium-235, with a half-life of 713 million years, decays to lead-207. If you analyze a rock and find that it contains uranium-235 and lead-207 in a ratio of 1:1, how old is the rock (assuming that decay of uranium-235 is the only source of lead-207)?

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.
