Summary Introduction
To review:
The environmental and behavioral risk factors contributing in free radical formation.
Introduction:
Free radicals are the atoms or molecules, which do not have a complete pair of electrons. These unpaired electrons make the molecule extremely reactive and unstable. Free radical can be formed in various ways, firstly chain reactions, that is, formation of newer free radicals from the older ones. Secondly by energy of photons coming from the sun, it can split the oxygen molecule to two free oxygen free radicals. Thirdly, generation of free radical under the effect of extremely high temperatures.

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.
