Charles Darwin
What is he proposed natural selection (survival of the fittest) and descent with modification from common ancestors?
100
What is symbol, atomic number, atomic weight, and the name
What is hydrogen, H, number=1, and weight=1.008?
100
I am?
What is Avogadro's number/constant? (the number of molecules that will make up a mole of the chosen solution)
100
What is the idea that organic compounds arise only within living organisms?
What is vitalism?
100
What are macromolecules?
What is large molecules composed of smaller molecules? They are made up of proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipids.
200
Define negative and positive feedback regulation.
What is...
Positive - a less common form; in which the end product speeds up its own production
Negative - most common form; an end product slows the process that produces that product
200
Explain the structure of an atom and the charges
What is, it has a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons and has electrons on its electron shells?
Protons - positive / Neutrons - neutral / Electrons - negative
200
What is the molecular shape of water and what elements make it up?
What is bent at 109.5 degrees and the elements are 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen?
200
What are the four major types of carbon chains and what does the carbon chain do in general?
What is length, branching, double bonds and rings and it form the skeletons of most organic molecules?
200
- monomers are joined to form polymers
- polymers are broken down to monomers
These two bullets are examples of what?
What is dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis?
300
What are the two major processes of the dynamics of any ecosystem?
What is the cycling of nutrients and the flow of energy from sunlight to producers to consumers to decomposers?
300
This is an example of? Label each side.
What is a chemical reaction? The left is the reactants and the right is the products.
300
What is Evaporative cooling?
What is it allows water to cool a surface and it occurs due to water’s high heat of vaporization?
300
This is an example of what?
What is a structural isomer?
300
What structure is this?
What is phospholipid?
400
What is the pathway of genetic information and what's its process?
What is the central dogma and it flows from DNA to being transcribed to RNA then it is translated into protein?
400
What does electronegativity depend on?
What is the #of positive charges in the nucleus and the distance of outer electrons from nucleus?
400
What is this image showing?
What is the molecular mass of water?
400
What are the three types of isomers and what does each one do?
What is...
Structural-have different covalent arrangements of their atoms
Geometric-Cis-trans isomers have the same covalent bonds but differ in their spatial arrangements
Enantiomers-isomers that are mirror images of each other
400
What is an amino acid structure composed of?
What is an amino group, carboxyl group and "R" group (side chain)
500
Each chain is made up of chemical building blocks called nucleotides. How many are there and what are the names?
What is there are four (4) and they are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine?
500
What is defined by this action?
What is the chemical behavior of an atom?
-Valence electrons help identify this
500
What is surface tension and why does water have a high intensity of this?
What is a measure of how hard it is to break the surface of a liquid and its high due to hydrogen bonding between the molecules?
500
This image is an example of what?
What is Left and Right Enantiomers?
500
What are the four levels of protein structure and explain each structure?
What is...
Primary structure - Is the unique sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide
Secondary structure - Is the folding or coiling of the polypeptide into a repeating configuration; Includes the α helix and the β pleated sheet
Tertiary structure - Is the overall three-dimensional shape of a polypeptide; Results from interactions between amino acids and R groups
Quaternary structure - Is the overall protein structure that results from the aggregation of two or more polypeptide subunits
