7356219131	example of lipids	fats, oils and waxes	2
7356223190	2 nucleic acids	RNA and ATP	3
7360309283	isomers	two molecules with the same atoms joined together in a different shape.	4
7360323772	structural isomers	isomers that have the same component atoms but arranged differently from each other. (different bonds)	5
7360347913	geometric or cis-trans isomers (to be near)(opposite)	the atoms in each isomer are all connected in the same order, but the shape of the molecule is different.(same bonds different place)	6
7360429611	Enantiomers isomers	mirror images of each other with asymmetrical usually only one is biologically active	7
7360581656	functional groups	chemical groups that affect molecular function by begin directly involved in reactions	8
7360588947	what are the 7 types of functional groups	Hydroxy, Carboxyl, Carbonyl, Amino, Sulfhydryl, Phosphate, and Methyl	9
7360604552	Hydroxy draw	-OH or OH-	10
7360624096	Hydroxy name	Achohols usually end in ol	11
7360633320	Hydroxy function	is polar and can form H bonds with water molecules, helping to dissolve organic compounds such as sugar.	12
7360646927	Carboxyl name	carboxylic acids or organic acids	13
7360655192	Carboxyl draw		14
7360659812	Carboxyl function	has acidic properties in the covalent bonds between oxygen and hydrogen is so polar	15
7360679880	carbonyl name	Kentones if carbonyl group is within carbon skeleton or Aldehydes if the carbonyl group is at the end of the carbon skeleton	16
7360706401	carbonyl draw		17
7360721740	carbonyl function	found in 2 major sugar groups	18
7360742244	Amino name	amines	19
7360745141	amino draw		20
7360751946	amino function	acts as a base, can put up H+ from surrounding solution (water in living organisms)	21
7360769009	Sulfhydryl name	thiois	22
7360770429	Sulfhydryl draw	-SH	23
7360781861	Sulfhydryl function	2 Sulfhydryl groups can form covalent bods which is called cross-linking which help stabilize protein structure, and what causes hair to be curly or straight	24
7360799589	phosphate name	organic phosphates	25
7360803532	phosphate draw		26
7360806645	phosphate function	has potential of reacting with water which releases energy	27
7360820314	methyl name	methylated compounds	28
7360826092	methyl draw		29
7360830537	methyl function	effects expression of genes and arrangement of methyl groups in male and female sex hormones affects their shape and function	30
7360860983	3 characteristics about carbon	4 valence electrons, tetrahedron, and if c is double bounded to itself its plane	31
7360872127	what are the most carbon bound partners	Hydrogen, Oxygen, nitrogen, and other carbons	32
