In terms of kidney function, what would be the consequences of the following physiological changes: (write consequences for each)
1) Elevated expression of UCP1 in renal mitochondria
2) Mutation causing no Aquaporin 2 expression
1) Elevated expression of UCP1; which separate oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis by causing proton leak in mitochondria. Thus such in renal mitochondria will be having ATP only from substrate level phosphorylation in Glycolysis and TCA and no ATP synthesis at the electron transport chain level. This will lead to a disruption of the active transport of minerals and ions in kidney cells.
2) Mutation causing no Aquaporin 2 expression will hamper the reabsorption of water in the kidney connecting tubule and collecting duct

Thomas Stone is a 55-year-old banker who developed chronic kidney disease as a result of hypertension. His condition was dis- covered several years ago, when routine laboratory tests revealed function declines? elevated serum creatinine levels and persistent albuminuria. Since then, he has been taking antihypertensive medications and stage of disease, when kidney failure develops. Explain the restricting dietary sodium, but he reported difficulty following the low-protein diet that was also prescribed. Mr. Stone recently 3. Explain why a low-sodium, low-protein...

The following function computes by summing the Taylor series expansion to n terms. Write a program to print a table of using both this function and the exp() function from the math library, for x = 0 to 1 in steps of 0.1. The program should ask the user what value of n to use. (PLEASE WRITE IN PYTHON) def taylor(x, n): sum = 1 term = 1 for i in range(1, n): term = term * x / i...
