chains of AMINO ACIDS linked together with peptide bonds

20
Q

Proteins ( 2 types)

A
  1. Structural- collagen 2. Enzymes- speeds up chemical reactions
21
Q

Any word ending in -ase is an

22
Q

Anabolic

A

makes things SIMPLER more COMPLEX

23
Q

Catabolic

A

makes things COMPLEX more SIMPLER

24
Q

Amphibolic

A

goes BOTH ways, complex to simple- simple to complex

25
Enzymes are ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE meaning
they have specific needs for temperature, pH, pressure, and change of shape. if one of these things is off, then they stop producing
26
Mechanisms of enzyme action (4)
1. Amino acids connect with an enzyme 2. Energy is absorbed and a bond is formed 3. Water is released 4. The new PEPTIDE BOND breaks away from the enzyme
27
Functional proteins TRANSPORT
hemoglobin in BLOOD and myoglobin in MUSCLES
28
How many amino acids are there in the body?
20
29
CARBOHYDRATES
sugars and their relatives
30
Carbohydrates (3 types)
1. Monosaccharides 2. Disaccharides 3. Polysaccharides
31
Monosaccharides
six carbons or less, highly soluble- hohos, white bread
32
Monosac (3 types)
1. Triosecs 2. Pentoses 3. Hexosecs
33
Triosecs
3 carbons- adenose, ketoses
34
Pentoses
5 carbons- ribose, deoxyribose
35
Hexosecs
6 carbons- glucose (source of energy), fructose (sugars from fruit), galactose
36
Disaccharides
12 carbons, moderately soluble- whole grains
37
Disac (3 types)
1. Sucrose (table sugar) 2. Lactose (milk sugar) 3. Maltose (malt sugar)
38
Polysaccharides
18 + carbons, slightly soluble to insoluble
39
Polysac (2 types)
1. Amylose- starch 2. Cellulose- fiber
40
Which organ secretes sugar while you sleep to keep your blood sugar level stable?
liver
41
Glycogen
stores sugar for later use
42
LIPIDS
or triglycerides- fatty acid
43
If all bonds are single (straight line), then
saturated fats- harder to digest, bad
44
The more double bonds (kinks or curvy), the more
UNsaturated fats- easier to digest, not good but not bad
45
Nucleic acids
or nucleotides- building blocks, ATCF&U
46
DNA
deoxyribose nucleic acid
47
RNA
ribose nucleic acid
