| 10552041361 | Phosphate Group | consists of a phosphorus atom bonded to four oxygen atoms. Found in ATP energy molecules, DNA, and phospholipids |  | 0 |
| 10552041362 | Amino Group | composed of a nitrogen bonded to two hydrogen atoms It acts as a base by picking up H+ from a solution. Organic compounds with an amino group are called amines. Amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, contain a carboxyl and an amino group. |  | 1 |
| 10552041363 | Carbonyl Group | a carbon atom is linked by a double bond to an oxygen atom. If the carbon of the carbonyl group is at the end of a carbon skeleton, the compound is called an aldehyde; if it is within the chain, the compound is called a ketone. Sugars contain carbonyl group |  | 2 |
| 10552041364 | Hydroxyl Group | consists of a hydrogen atom bonded to an oxygen atom Ethanol and other organic compounds containing hydroxyl groups are called alcohols. |  | 3 |
| 10552041365 | Sulfhydryl group | consists of a sulfur atom bonded to an atom of hydrogen Found in amino acids of proteins, help stabilize protein structure |  | 4 |
| 10552041366 | Carboxyl Group | carbon double bonded to an oxygen and also bonded to a hydroxyl -OH Acts as acid because it donates H+ |  | 5 |
| 10552041367 | Methyl group | consists of a carbon bonded to three hydrogens. Compounds with these groups are called methylated compounds. Affects gene expression when on DNA |  | 6 |
