The galaxy Markarian 231 is reviewed as a prototype that includes all physical processes associated with active galaxies. It contains both a starburst and an AGN which are highly obscured by dust. Its luminosity at various wavelengths is used to summarize how such a galaxy would appear at high redshift, as observed with missions such as HST, AXAF, and SIRTF. The conclusion is that Markarian 231 provides an excellent example for comparing low redshift and high redshift phenomena.
