| 7352165229 | What are the Organic Molecules? | -Carbohydrates -Lipids -Nucleic Acids -Proteins | 0 | |
| 7352165230 | What do all organic molecules contain | carbon and hydrogen | 1 | |
| 7352165231 | What is special about carbon? | -Four valence electrons=four possible bonds -Can bond with itself with single, double or triple bonds -Can make long crazy branches or rings | 2 | |
| 7352165232 | Functional Groups | specific combinations of atoms that determine reactivity and polarity. | 3 | |
| 7352165233 | Macromolecules | made of repeating subunits. | 4 | |
| 7352165234 | Subunit and Polymer of CARBOHYDRATES | subunit: monosaccharide polymer: disaccharide or polysaccharide | 5 | |
| 7352165235 | Subunit and Polymer of LIPIDS | subunit: gycerol and fatty acids polymer: fat | 6 | |
| 7352165236 | Subunit and Polymer of PROTEINS | subunit: amino acid polymer: polypeptide | 7 | |
| 7352165237 | Subunit and Polymer of NUCLEIC ACIDS | subunit: nucleotide polymer: DNA or RNA | 8 | |
| 7352165238 | Protein Monomers--> protein | amino acid -> peptide -> polypeptide -> protein | 9 | |
| 7352165239 | Protein Description | - a polypeptide that has folded into a particular shape, which is essential for its proper function - make up structure - hormones such as insulin - antibodies - ALL OF THE FUNCTIONS because of their 20 different amino groups | 10 | |
| 7352165240 | Amino Acid Structure and Buildup | Amino Group + amino acid + Hydrogen + carbon + R (variable functional group) |  | 11 |
| 7352165241 | Protein Structure | Primery structure: sequence of amino acids Secondary structure: hydrogen bonds between the amino acids cause the chain of amino acids to form alpha helixes and beta sheets. Tertiary Structure: the folding due to other chemical reactions and the bonding between R groups. Quaternary structure: multiple chains of amino acids interacting with each other. | 12 | |
| 7352165242 | Carbohydrate Description | - Made of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen in a 1:2:1 ratio - Energy source - Building material | 13 | |
| 7352165243 | Monosaccharides | - Always in rings - The hydroxyl groups makes them soluble in water | 14 | |
| 7352165244 | Polysaccharides | - A source of energy: starch for plants and glycogen for animals - Structure: cellulose in plants and, chitin in animals, and preptidoglycan in bacteria | 15 | |
| 7352165245 | Glycogen | the polysaccharide energy source for animals | 16 | |
| 7352165246 | Lipid Groups | Triglycerides Waxes Steroids Phospholipids | 17 | |
| 7352165247 | Triglycerides | saturated (fats that are solid and come from animals) and unsaturated (fats that are liquid and come from plants) Made out of a gylcerol and 3 fatty acids. | 18 | |
| 7352165248 | Waxes | fats that are used in water retention by plants, structural purposes by bees, and ear canal protection and water proving by humans and some other animals. | 19 | |
| 7352165249 | Phospholipids | Made of a polar head and non polar fatty acid tales. They form the plasma membranes of cells because the head faces the water (as it is polar) and the fatty acids face the inside of the cell. The kinks in the tale keep the plasma membrane fluid so that things and come and leave the cell. | 20 | |
| 7352165250 | Steroids | - They form 4 fused carbon rings that differ in their functional groups. - They make up components of animal cells - Cholesterol, testosterone, and estrogen | 21 | |
| 7352165251 | Nucleic Acids | DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) -genetic material -two strands connected by hydrogen bonds RNA (ribonucleic acid) -one strand -messenger ATP (adenosine triphosphate) -high energy molecule -two unstable phosphate bonds that are easily broken. | 22 | |
| 7352165252 | Structure of a nucleotide | -pentose sugar -phosphate grouop -nitrogenous base |  | 23 |
| 7352165253 | pH | measure of hydrogen concentration | 24 | |
| 7352165254 | Acids | release hydrogen ions high [H+] concentration | 25 | |
| 7352165255 | Bases | take up hydrogen ions or release hydroxyls. low [H+] concentration | 26 |
