What is the molecular formula for Ribose?
Is ribose a carbohydrate? monosaccharide?
C5 h10 05
Yes ribose is a monosaccharide or simple sugar
Glucose and fructose have the same molecular formula what is the difference between the two?
Glucose has a hexagon shape while fructose has a pentagon shape.
What is a disaccharide?
A disaccharide is a double ring carbohydrate disaccharides are soluble in water.
Give me three examples of a disaccharide
Sucrose maltose and lactose
What is an amino acid

What is a dipeptide
2 rings of amino acids
Give an example of a dipeptide

what forms a peptide link
Peptide bonds
What reaction occurs to form a dipeptide
Condensation reaction
What is a tripeptide
Three rings of amino acids
What is a tetrapeptide
4 rings of amino acids
What is a polypeptide
Many rings of amino acids
How many types of amino acids are in a polypeptide
20
What holds amino acids together
Hydrogen bonds
Polypeptides are
3 dimensional
Peptides are linked together through what type of bonds
Covalent peptide bonds
From our previous experiment does glucose diffuse from inside the tube to the outside? Explain why?
Yes it moves from high concentration to low concentration the test strips showed the green pigment
From our previous experiment the starch diffuse from inside of the tube to the outside? Explain why
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
On our previous experiment did water diffuse from outside of the tube to the inside of the tube? Explain why
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.
From our last experiment does Iodine diffuse from outside of the bag to inside of the tube?
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.
What happens when the water diffuses out of the cytoplasm and out of the central vacuole?
The chloroplast are seen closer to the center of the cell
Many amino acids linked form a?
Polypeptide= a protein
Fatty acids are the monomers for?
Fats and oils
