Chapter 9.4, Problem 1CSC
Body, Heal Thyself
Ligaments and tendons have a limited capacity for self-repair. They tend to have a meager blood supply and contain only a small number of specialized cells that produce proteins, such as collagen and elastic, that provide flexibility and strength. In Bartolo Colón’s case, the hope was that the stem cells injected into his shoulder and elbow would progress rapidly through the cell cycle, producing large populations of specialized daughter cells that would regenerate his ligaments and tendons. How would mitotic cell division ensure that the daughter cells contained accurate copies of all of Colón’s chromosomes, including the genes that specify all of the proteins needed to repair his arm?

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_forward
