32
What are the 4 traits of carbon?
Abundant, valence of 4, versatile stable
33
What are the 4 main types of organic compounds?
Carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids
34
Functional groups
Lone atoms or clusters of atoms, bonded to a carbon chain that effect and alter the properties of the carbon skeleton
35
Polymers
Large compounds (organic)
36
Monomers
Building blocks of polymers
37
Lipids
Hydrophobic, monomers are fatty acids, can be modified by adding structures, ex: phospholipid
38
Cholesterol
A specialized lipid
39
Proteins
Most flexible and versatile organic compound, can be linear or globular, shape is determined by function of the protein,
40
One special type of large proteins are...
Enzymes
41
If an enzyme's shape is disrupted we call it...
Denaturation
42
Carbohydrates
Made up of 3 carbon structures- Monosaccharides (m) disaccharide (m) polysaccharides (p)
43
Give an example of each of the 3 main levels of carb structures
Monosaccharides- glucose disaccharide- sucrose polysaccharides- complex carbon
44
Glucose
C6H12O6
45
Nucleic Acids
2 types (DNA and RNA), monomers are nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group
46
What are the differences between DNA and RNA?
DNA- 2 strands, can't leave nucleus and has no oxygen RNA- 1 strand, can leave nucleus, has Oxygen
47
Name the 4 base pairs that make up DNA
Cytosine-Guanine and Adenine-Thymine
48
What are the base pairs for RNA?
Adenine-Uracil Cytosine-Guanine
49
What do cells use energy for?
Organization, endocytosis, mitosis, repair, active transport, movement
50
How can energy be released to be used In a cell?
Use organic compounds
51
ATP
A chemical molecule made of adenine, ribose,and 3 phosphate groups.
52
Adenine + ribose= ______
Adenosine
53
What does triophosphate refer to?
3 phosphate groups
54
Why do cells want ATP?
It's easy to use
55
What is needed to "recharge" or anabolically build up to ATP?
Energy
56
What is the order from full charged to dead of ATP?
ATP-->ADP-->AMP
57
How many phosphate groups does ADP have?
2
58
What are the 2 specialized processes that complex cells (eukaryotes) utilize energy?
Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
59
Autotrophs
Make their own food- trapping light energy, make chemical energy (ATP) and using that to build food energy (carbohydrates)
60
Where does photosynthesis take place?
Chloroplast
61
Photosynthesis
Using light from the sun, plants make ATP that will in turn fuel the cells ability to combine water and carbon dioxide to ultimately make sugar
