Q

Disaccharide
*explain the mechanism

A

2 monosaccharides linked via a dehydration reaction

Mechanism: DEHYDRATION REACTION
hydroxyl group (-OH) from a monosaccharide and a hydrogen atom (-H) from another monosaccharide are removed resulting in a glycosidic bond and release of a water molecule

Q

lipids
What are the type of lipids?

A

Mainly C linked to H through nonpolar bonds, molecules are hydrophobic and insoluble in water

Fats, phospholipids, and steroids

18
Q

Fats:
Function:

A

Composed of mostly triglycerides;
triglycerides composed of glycerol(alcohol) and 3 fatty acids(COOH-CH2 chain)
Function: energy storage, cushion/insulation

19
Q

Explain the dehydration reaction of fats

A

hydroxyl group (-OH) of the glycerol molecule combines with the carboxyl group (-COOH) of each fatty acid molecule. As a result, three water molecules are eliminated, and the remaining molecules form a triglyceride.

20
Q

Difference between saturated and unsaturated fat

A

degree that C bonded to H, saturated molecule has maximum amount of H

21
Q

How does degree of saturation of fats, relate to a bend?

A

Unsaturated fats have a bend, can’t stack easily, and are less likely to form solids. In contrast, saturated fats have no bend can easily stack, and tend to be solids at room temp.

22
Q

Most plant/fish triglycerides and animals triglycerides tend to be saturated or unsaturated?

A

Most plant/fish triglycerides-unsaturated
animals triglycerides-saturated

23
Q

What do we can unsaturated fats with a single double bond or more than one double bond?

A

Monounsaturated fats= single double bond
Polyunsaturated fats= have two or more

24
Q

Why might unsaturated fats have a lower melting point?

A

double bonds prevent close packing so they are farther apart meaning it’s easier to melt them

25
We can call unsaturated fats
oils
26
Why might eating meat increase your chances of heart attacks and strokes?
animal triglycerides are saturated and diets rich in saturated fats can lead to atherosclerosis. Plaque buildup in walls of blood vessels, reduce blood flow and ultimately cause heart attacks and strokes.
27
What are essential nutrients?
substances that animals can't create for themselves Essential amino acids/ fatty acids/ minerals and vitamins
28
What are the 9 essential amino acids?
PVT TIM HiLL 9 indispensable amino acids phenylalanine, valine, threonine, tryptophan, isoleucine, methionine, histidine, leucine, and lysine.
29
What's the difference between water-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins?
1) where they dissolve 2)water-soluble vitamins: nonprotein organic subunits that associate with enzymes to aid in catalysis -Riboflavin=B2 (energy metabolism/FAD) -Niacin->NAD+ Fat soluble vitamins -Vitamin A-visual pigments
30
What are the three functions of minerals?
1) ions ex: important for contraction 2) structural material ex: Ca in bones 3) parts of other molecules ex: iron in hemoglobin
31
stomach, Mouth, intestine, anus, pharynx, esophagus, stomach Rewrite them in order
Mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, intestine, anus
32
What are Sphincters? What are the 2 examples?
Rings of smooth muscle form valves between major regions of the digestive tract lower esophageal sphincter: between esophagus and stomach Pyloric sphincter: between the stomach and small intestine
33
Salivary glands
Secrete saliva, which contains lubricating mucus, amylase (a starch-digesting enzyme), lysozyme (an enzyme that kills bacteria), and bicarbonate ions.
34
Explain small intestine, large intestine
small intestine: completes digestion and begins absorption of nutrients large intestine: primarily absorbs water and mineral ions from digestive residues
35
liver
Secretes bile, which emulsifies fats, and bicarbonate ions
36
gall blader
Stores and concentrates bile secreted by liver
37
Pancreas
Secretes enzymes (proteases, amylases, lipases, nucleases) that break down all major food molecules and bicarbonate ions that neutralize digestive contents
38
What are the four layers of the vertebrae gut?
1.mucosa 2. submucosa 3.muscularis 4.serosa
39
mucosa
Lines inside of gut -Epithelial cells: absorb nutrients, seal off digestive contents from body fluids -Glandular cells: secrete enzymes, mucus, pH regulation
40
submucosa
Elastic connective tissue, neuron network, blood and lymph vessels Neural network: local control of digestive activity
41
muscularis
Formed by circular layer (constricts gut diameter) and longitudinal layer (shortens and widens gut): push contents through gut (peristalsis) Oblique layer (stomach only)
42
serosa
Outermost gut layer, made of connective tissue that is continuous with mesentery (tissue that suspends digestive organs in the abdomen) -Secretes a lubricating fluid to reduce friction between digestive organs and other organs
