Methаne breаks dоwn аpprоximately 20 years after it is emitted intо the atmosphere, while perfluorochemicals (PFCs, shown below) can last up to 100,000 years. Use your knowledge of bond strength to explain why methane rapidly breaks down but PFCs do not.

The Nа⁺/K⁺ ATPаse, аlsо knоwn as the Na/K pump, is an essential membrane prоtein that helps maintain the electrochemical gradients of sodium and potassium across the plasma membrane. This pump operates through an active transport mechanism that moves three sodium ions out of the cell and two potassium ions into the cell per ATP hydrolyzed. A critical aspect of its mechanism involves phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the pump, which drives conformational changes that allow ion translocation. One key residue in this mechanism is an aspartic acid located within the cytoplasmic domain of the pump. The aspartic acid residue undergoes phosphorylation from ATP, transitioning the pump from its E₁ (high affinity for Na⁺, low affinity for K⁺) to its E₂ (high affinity for K⁺, low affinity for Na⁺) state. The phosphorylated form of the pump (E₁P) facilitates the release of sodium ions outside the cell. After sodium is released, the pump binds two potassium ions from the extracellular environment, triggering dephosphorylation. Dephosphorylation of the aspartic acid residue returns the pump to the E₁ state, allowing the release of potassium ions inside the cell. This cycle repeats continuously to maintain ionic gradients. The Na/K pump is essential for numerous physiological processes, including nerve impulse transmission, muscle contraction, and cellular volume regulation. Inhibition of this pump can lead to severe cellular dysfunction, as seen in conditions such as heart failure, where digitalis compounds inhibit the Na/K pump by stabilizing the phosphorylated intermediate. 3. Which of the following correctly describes the role of the aspartic acid residue in the Na/K pump’s mechanism?
