The study of life
DNA to RNA to Proteins
the central dogma of biology
An atom's electronegativity increases in this direction
Right and up
Peptide bond
Phospodiester bonds
This causes a carbohydrate to be hydrophilic
OH functional groups
Bacteria
Archaea
Eukarya
Hydrolysis
This determines how each amino acid interacts with the environment
R groups
This is the direction that DNA and RNA build
5' to 3'
This carbon is responsible for forming alpha or beta glucose
Anomeric Carbon
Phylogenetic trees are constructed by analyzing these and looking for similarities
DNA
The removal of water to form bonds
condensation
Secondary structure
Increasing the amount of this also increases the Tm
Hydrogen bonds
This property allows glucose to be a better choice for energy than fats
A diagram that depicts evolutionary history and relationships
Phylogenetic tree
Weak attraction between a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge and another atom with a partial negative charge.
Hydrogen bonding
A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction by changing this.
activation energy
The secondary structure that Only RNA has when it folds back on top of itself
Hairpin loop
The diffusion of H2O across a membrane
osmosis
The five characteristics of life

Energy storage
This is the reason why ATP is considered a high-energy molecule
Charges repel each other
