It explores the interactions between the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51) and the dwarf galaxy NGC 5195, revealing how past interactions have shaped M51's spiral arms. The text highlights cosmology's role in studying the universe, encompassing all existing matter, energy, space, and time.

Along the way, the cytochrome complex pumps protons across the thylakoid membrane (into the lumen) to generate a proton gradient, the energy of which will eventually be harvested for ATP synthesis.
