Question
Chapter 48.3, Problem 3LO
Summary Introduction
To contrast: Osmoconformers and osmoregulators.
Introduction: The urinary system is the drainage system of the body for removing the wastes in the form of urine. Osmoregulation is a biological process in which an organism regulates its osmotic pressure that eventually controls the electrolyte (salt) and water in the body in order to maintain the body fluids in the homeostatic limits.

- ✓ 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.arrow_forwarddrawing chemical structure of ATP. please draw in and label whats asked.
