Q

If curved…. (forms helix)

  • starch or glycogen( more branched)
  • alpha glucose monomers
  • Hydroxyls point in same direction
  • curved is makes easier to break down sugars
  • used to store sugars

Q

If strait…. (like a string)

  • cellulose
  • beta glucose monomers
  • Hydroxyls orient back and forth
  • strait good for structure (harder to break down)
  • in plant cell walls

Q

Saturated fatty acid have…in regards to carbons

A

no double-bonded carbons

22
Q

Unsaturated fatty acid have…in regards to carbons

A

one or more double-bonded carbons

23
Q

Differences between saturated and unsaturated fats

A

Saturated fat
no double-bonded carbons in any fatty acids
tend to be solid at room temperature
animal fats
strait
Unsaturated fat
one or more (polyunsaturated) double-bonded carbon in the fatty acids
usually liquid at room temperature
plant fats (oils)
kink or bend

24
Q

What if you have only 2 fatty acids attached to a glyceride?

A

Phospholipids

25
In a phospholipid bilayer: Where is it hydrophobic? Where is it Hydrophilic? Where is it charged? Where is it not charged?
Hydrophilic, polar (positive) head; hydrophobic, nonpolar (negative) tail.
26
What is the polymer of protein called?
Polypeptide
27
What is the monomer?
Amino acids
28
How many naturally occurring amino acids are there?
20
29
What is one or more polypeptide chains folded in on each other?
Protein
30
True or False: amino acids are put together by a dehydration reaction.
TRUE
31
What kind of bond does a dehydration reaction form?
Peptide bonds
32
Which structure determines the identity of the protein?
Primary Structure
33
Why does primary structure determine the identity for the protein?
The order of the amino acids determines how the polypeptide chain folds.
34
What forms the different structures of alpha helix and Beta pleated sheets on Secondary Structures?
Hydrogen bonding between Carbon and Nitrogen.
35
How is the tertiary structure formed?
Interactions of R groups determines folding.
36
What are the proteins used to help in the folding of Tertiary structure?
Chaperonins
37
Disulfide Bridge is a covalent bond. True or False?
TRUE
38
What is the monomer of nucleic acids called?
Nucleotides
39
What is the polymer of nucleic acids called?
Nucleic acids
40
What is the main purpose for Nucleic Acids?
To contain genetic information
41
2 famous examples of Nucleic acids are?
DNA & RNA
42
With Oxygen?
Deoxyribose (for DNA); Ribose (for RNA)
43
Nucleotide example involved in Energy: ATP (energy currency of the cell)
Food for thought
44
How does ATP become ADP or AMP?
Loses phosphates. Starts off with 3
45
Where do the Ribosomes insert themselves in the Rough ER?
Into the Lumen or into
46
True or False: Ribosomes are part of the endomembrane system
FALSE
47
Bound to ER or free in cytoplasm
More reference material I was too lazy to put into questions
48
Where are Ribosomes Formed?
Nucleolus of Nucleus Nucleus is continuous with ER and is membrane Bound. Nucleus is a double phospholipid bilayer And has pores.
49
What does the Golgi Apparatus do?
Shipping and packaging center
50
What do Lysosomes do?
Pretty much a food vacuole with digestive enzymes. Breaks down food that is phagocytosed and breaks down damaged organelle into recycled parts.
