Q

Hydrogen bonds

A

Hydrogen bonds are week bonds between molecules. They form when a positively charged hydrogen atom in one covalent bond molecule is attracted to a negatively charged area to the molecule.

Q

Describe a hydrogen bond in water.

A

In water the positive pole around the hydrogen atom form a hydrogen bond to the negative poles around the oxygen atom of another water molecule.

Q

Capillary action

A

When water a hears to the walls of narrow tubing or to absorb solid like paper, it demonstrates capillary action by rising up the tubing or creeping through the paper.

Q

Macromolecules

A

Large organ molecules that may consist of hundreds of thousands of atoms.

16
Q

Polymers

A

Macromolecules,Molecules of many monomers

17
Q

Functional group

A

Many organic molecules share similar properties because they have similar clusters of atoms.

18
Q

Monosaccharide

A

The simplest kind of carbohydrate

19
Q

Sugar molecules have the formula (CH2O)n what can the n be?

A

3-8

Ex: glucose and fructose the n is 6 so the formula would be. C6H12O6

20
Q

Disaccharide

A

Consist of two sugar molecules joined by glycosidic linkage.

21
Q

Types of Lipids

A

Triglycerides
Phospholipid
Steroids

22
Q

Triglycerides

A

Includes fats and oils. They consist of three fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule.

23
Q

Fatty acids

A

Hydrocarbons with a carboxl group at one end of a chain.

24
Q

Saturated fatty acid

A

Has a single covalent bond between each pair of carbon atoms, and each carbon has two hydrogen bonded to it.

25
Q

Monounsaturated fatty acid

A

Has one double covalent bond, and each of the carbons in the bond has only one hydrogen atom bonded to it

26
Q

Polyunsaturated fatty acid

A

Like monosaturated except that there are two or more double covalent bonds.

27
Q

Phospholipid

A

Looks like a triglyceride except that one of the fatty acid chains is replaced by a phosphate group. Has a head which is hydrophilic and a tail which is hydrophobic.

28
Q

Steroids

A

Characterized by a backbone fore linked carbon rings.

29
Q

How can proteins be grouped

A
  1. Structural protein, 2. Storage proteins, 3. Transport proteins, 4.defense proteins, 5.enzyems
30
Q

Structural proteins

A

Such as keratin in the hair and horns of animals, collagen in connective tissues, and silk in spider webs.

31
Q

Storage proteins

A

Such as casein in milk, ovalbumin in egg whites, and zein in corn seeds.

32
Q

Transport proteins

A

Transports thing into , out of, and across a cell membrane.

33
Q

Enzyems

A

They regulate the rate of chemical reactions.

34
Q

4 levels of a protein

A

Primary structure
Secondary structure
Tertiary structure
Quaternary structure

35
Q

Factors that contribute to the tertiary structure

A

Hydrogen bonding between r groups of amino acids
Ionic between r groups of amino acids
Formation of disulfide bonds that form when suffer atom in the amino acid cysteine bonds to suffer atoms in another cysteine.
