Which functional group acts as a base in solution? What is its structure?It is ionized with a charge of ____.Hydrophillic or Hydrophobic interactions?
Amino group(-NH2)1+Found on surface- hydrophillic interactions
ATP releases free energy when its phosphate bonds are _______.
This energy is used to drive ______ reactions in cells.
Hydrolyzed/ Endergonic
What do all the types of isomers have in common?How do all 3 differ? How are they similar in each type?What bonds do they involve?
Same molecular formula but different structures/ dif properties
Structural isomers- differ in covalent arrangements of their atoms (molecular weight and structure)
Geometric- Same covalent arrangementDiffer in molecular distribution across double bond (spatial arrangements of their atoms owing to inflexibility of double bonds.)
Enantiomer- chemically same, biologically different
Molecules that are soluble in water and called alcohols have which functional group?
Hydroxyl
Which functional group is the most different from the 7?
Methyl group- hydrophobic(CH3)Can be attached to a carbon or a different atom
Question 6
Identify the asymmetric carbon in this molecule:
B
On membranes ______ acts as cell identification tags.
Polysaccharides
4 major roles of Carbohydrates:
1.) energy use/storage---2) structure-----3) part of nucelic acid backbone---4) often added to makeglycoproteins, or glycolipids, on animal cell surfaces for cell specific type recognition
Major component of plant cell walls is __1____, which is a type of ___2____.
Plants store sugars in form of ____2____ called ___3______. Animals store sugars in form of ___2___ called ___4______.
1) cellulose-- 2) polysaccharide---3) starch---4) glycogen
Monosaccharides always have the functional group: _______.They have molecular formulas that are multiples of : ___
Carbonyl----- CH2O
Name each monosacchride:1. major nutrient, broken down for energy in cellular respiration2. this combines with glucose to form lactose (disac in milk)3. glucose + ______= sucrose4. important component of RNA and ATP
1. glucose2. galactose3. fructose4. ribose
Sucrose=Lactose=Maltose=
S=glucose+ fructose//l=glucose + galactose//m=glucose + glucose
Explain everything you know about starch.(use, bonds, broken down, linkage between..., type of chain)
Carb-polysacUsed for energy storage in plants.C1-C4 alpha linkage, broken down by alpha amylase.Animals break down by hydrolysis to get glucose.Glycosidic bonds easily broken, by enzymesLinear chain
Explain everything you know about glycogen...use, bonds, type of chain, linkage between..)
Carb- polysacUsed for energy storage in animalsAlpha glycosidic bondsBranched chainMix of C1-C6, C1-C4, C1-C3
What are glyocisidic bonds?_(Plants/Animals)_____ can break both alpha and beta bonds by _(what enzyme)__.__(Plants/ANimals)__ can only break _(alpha/beta)____ by ___(enzyme)__ but with the help of _____ can digest the other type
Bonds when polysaccharides are made. Glucose has either beta or alpha isomes in the ring form and creates these bonds.
Plants can make and break both alpha and beta bonds by alpha and microbial amylase.Animals can only break alpha bonds by amylase but with help of bacteria can help digest the beta bonds.
