5147036732Proteinhas thousands of different proteins. a polymer made up of amino acid monomers. has many different roles. Is a polymer consisting of one or more polypeptides.30
5147036733Saturatedwhen it has the max number of hydrogen atoms, tend to hold solid at room temp31
5147036734Starcha polysaccharide, created by many glucose monomers strung together. found in plants.32
5147036735Steroidsclassified as lipids because they are hydrophobic. all have carbon skeletons that are bent to form four fused rings. one common is cholesterol33

5151427030quaternary structureproteins with two or more polypeptidechains , results from bonds between chains.39
5147036739What is the difference between covalent, polar covalent, and hydrogen bonds?hydrogen bonds are weak, hydrogen atoms are slighly positive and create and attraction with the oxygen moleucle of another. a covalent bond is when they share electrons. And a polar covalent is when the electrons are not equally shared between atoms because one has a stronger pull on them.40
5147036740What are the properties of water that make it essential to life?cohesion allows water from the roots of the trees to be transported to their leaves. Also it create surface tension because of the hydrogen bonds. moderates temperature: earths giant water supply keeps temps within limits. (evaporative cooling: think track runners) Ice floating; in the winter the ice is on the top causing the water underneath to be insulated allowing life to still persist. water as a solvent: water is in our body and is the medium for chemical reactions.41
5147236353why does ice float?because when water becomes cooler the molecules spread farther apart forming ice. Ice has fewer molecules than the liquid form of water therefor it floats. This is a result of hydrogen bonding.42
5147036741Describe the special bonding properties of carbon that allow it to form and endless variety of organic molecules.43
5147196414Water moderating temperaturebecause of hydrogen bonding water has a stronger resistance to temp change. because of this water does not heat up fast but rather absorbs and stores energy. And when cooling down it releases a lot of heat energy while only decreasing a little in temp.44

5147036750Distinguish between the primary structure and the final three-dimensional shape of polypeptides and proteins.53
5147036751Why has lactose intolerance evolved differently in humans spread throughout the world?54
5147036752Explain how gets nutrients from and gives nutrients to our bodies from the food we eat.55
5147059617polar moleculehas opposite charges on opposite ends. Ex: water because it has an unequal sharing of electrons.56
5147074059Hydrogen bondsthe weak attractions of one hydrogen atom of one molecule is near the oxygen atom of an adjacent water molecule. water molecules stick together because of this.57
5147133787cohesionthe tendency of molecules of the same kind to stick together. Lot stronger in water than other liquids.58
