Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The micelle formed by a phosphatidylcholine is to be compared to one formed by a typical fatty acid micelle at
Concept Introduction:
A micelle is a colloidal aggregate formed by the molecules containing a hydrophilic
The nature and number of charges on the hydrophilic head determines the size of the hydration sphere and how the molecules are packed.

Recall that the Nat concentration is significantly higher outside the cell than inside the cell. The symporter couples the "downhill" transport of two Na* ions into the cell to the "uphill" transport of glucose into the cell. If the Na* concentration outside the cell ([Na* lout) is 141 mM and that inside the cell ([Na* lin) is 19.0 mM, and the cell potential is –52.0 mV (inside negative), calculate the maximum energy available for pumping a mole of glucose into the cell.
