Hydrogen
Weakest molecule
Doesn’t form new molecules
H2O
High heat capacity
Enzyme controlled reaction
Not Substrate
Not Converted to product
Can only be used once-incorrect
Arterial
Higher pH than Venous
Bicarbonate
HCO3
Buffer outside
Respiratory acidosis
Carbonic acid
No carbonic acid
Metabolic acidosis
Metabolic alkalosis
Carbohydrate
Form polymers
Function as enzymes
Names and with -ose
Sucrose
Glucose and fructose linked together
Glucose
6 carbon sugar
Saturated fat
Unhealthy fat
Fatty acid
Produces triglycerides
Saturated fat Unsaturated fat
Chylomicron
Exit the cells of your small intestine and enter bloodstream
LDL and HDL
Both produced in liver from F.A
Nucleic acids
Energy storing and transferring
Nucleotides
Phosphate
Carbohydrate
Base; functional part with nitrogen
No glycerol
Essentiality
Only get essential A.A through diet
Tertiary
When proteins denature
Fibrous protein function
Does not easily denature
Function best at muscle contraction
Enzymes
Never force 2 molecules to react that do not normally react in nature
Substrate
The chemical/molecule that will be changed by an enzyme
Carboxylase
Add CO2 to organic molecules
Dehydrogenase
Removes hydrogen
Reductase
Adds something to a molecule, changes the charge
