Question
Chapter 36, Problem 1AC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The osmolarity of sea water is more than four times of osmolarity of blood. Explain the reason why a person can’t drink sea water. Most of the water is saline that means seawater and a very little amount is fresh water which is available to drink.
Concept introduction:
Osmolarity refers to the concentration of the solution, which is the total number of solute particles in 1 liter of solvent. Osmolarity of seawater is much higher than the osmolarity of blood.

✓ Details
Draw a protein that is embedded in a membrane (a transmembrane protein), label the lipid bilayer and the protein. 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.
drawing chemical structure of ATP. please draw in and label whats asked. Thank you.

Affected individuals show spots of abnormal skin pigmentation and non-cancerous tumors that can interfere with the nervous system and cause blindness. Some tumors can convert to a cancerous form. i The recessive form is a normal protein - in other words, no neurofibromatosis.moovi A typical pedigree for a family that carries neurofibromatosis is shown below. Note that carriers are not indicated with half-colored shapes in this chart. Use the letter "N" to indicate the dominant neurofibromatosis allele, and the letter "n" for the normal allele.
