A pump is a protein that hydrolyses ATP in order to transport a particular solute through a membrane in order to generate an electrochemical gradient to confer certain membrane potential characteristics on it. This gradient is of interest as an indicator of the state of the cell through parameters such as the Nernst potential. In terms of membrane transport the gradient is of interest as it contributes to increased system entropy in the co-transport of substances against their gradient. One of the

Kidney plays an important function in regulation the concentration of sodium and potassium in blood. A steroid hormone called aldosterone is secreted by the adrenal cortex in respond to rennin secreted by the kidney cells to stimulate potassium excretion by active reabsorption of sodium in distal and collecting ducts. Aldosterone increase active secretion of potassium in distal convoluted tubules and also stimulates the reabsorption of sodium on collecting ducts. Antidiuretic hormone also helps to

What reaction(s) could be occurring as the Na and K surface tarnishes? Write balanced equations for each reaction you can imagine. Hint: Recall air is mae up of water vapour‚ nitrogen‚ and oxygen. Suggest why oxygen (found as O2 in the air we breathe) is more likely to react rather than nitrogen (N2). The surface of Na and K could be tarnished because of reaction with oxygen. If Na or K is burned in air‚ the results are mainly formation of white sodium peroxide‚
