Q

From our previous experiment does glucose diffuse from inside the tube to the outside? Explain why?

A

Yes it moves from high concentration to low concentration the test strips showed the green pigment

Q

From our previous experiment the starch diffuse from inside of the tube to the outside? Explain why

A

No starch did not move from inside the tube to outside of the two because starch is a big molecule and the water did not change colors

20
Q

On our previous experiment did water diffuse from outside of the tube to the inside of the tube? Explain why

A

Yes the water did diffuse from the beaker to inside of the tube. The reason why is because there was less than a hundred percent of water in the tube. So the water moved from high concentration to low concentration making the tube weigh more.

21
Q

From our last experiment does Iodine diffuse from outside of the bag to inside of the tube?

A

Yes there was 1% of water in the beaker and 0% instube, this caused the iodine to diffuse from high concentration to low concentration. The color in the tube turn black. Also iodine is a small molecule.

22
Q

What happens when the water diffuses out of the cytoplasm and out of the central vacuole?

A

The chloroplast are seen closer to the center of the cell

23
Q

Many amino acids linked form a?

A

Polypeptide= a protein

24
Q

Fatty acids are the monomers for?

A

Fats and oils

25
Lipids form
Fats, waxes & oil
26
Lipids have
Fewer oxygen
27
Fats and oils are
Triglycerides
28
Glycerol is formed by
Three fatty acids + dehydration synthesis
29
Molecular formula for lipids
C16 h12 02
30
Three examples of common polysaccharides
Cellulose starch glycogen
31
How does the liver store glucose
It stores it as glycogen
32
what is the molecular formula for glucose
C6 h-12 06
33
How is ATP made
Fructose converted to glucose and then forms ATP
34
How is a molecular formula written
Always alphabetically
35
What happens when a monomer gives away their water
They attach and become polymers
36
What is the reaction of a molecule becoming a larger molecule
Dehydration synthesis
37
When the water splits a larger molecule into smaller molecules the reaction is called?
Hydrolysis
38
Saturated fats in the molecular formula have what type of bonds
Single bonds
39
What type of fats cause cardiovascular disease?
Saturated fats
40
unsaturated fats have more or less bonds
Double bonds between carbon atoms and fewer hydrogen atoms
41
Saturated fats have less or more hydrogen atoms
More hydrogen atoms and single bonded carbons
42
Characteristics of some protein
Enzymes speed up reactions, each enzyme shape allows it to speed up one type of chemical reaction, stomach enzymes break protein into dipeptides, they function differently in PH conditions
43
Name three organic molecules in nucleic acid
DNA RNA ADP
44
What is denatured
Change in three-dimensional shape of A protein
45
In water with the concentration of hydrogen atoms be greater or smaller then water
Greater than water
