Water you on about?
Checking my Macros
Enzymes, I couldn't think of a joke :(
These questions are really tough

In this photo is the enzyme helping to break down a substrate or build a larger product?
Break down a substrate
100
True or false, after a chemical reaction the enzyme stays the same and can perform a new reaction?
True
200
What are the two macromolecules that are used for energy in the human body? (They form the CHO CHO energy train)
Carbohydrates and Lipids
200
This property of water is when water wants to "stick" or is attracted to other molecules (Not water). It's also what causes capillary action.
Adhesion

Water is very good at dissolving other polar molecules. What property of water does this apply to?
Universal Solvent
300
We obtain all of the necessary macromolecules we need to survive from our food except for this macromolecule
Nucleic Acids

Why is water being less dense as a solid than a liquid an important property of water for life on earth?
Life can still exist underneath the frozen water(ice)
300
This is the general name of the small subunits used to build larger molecules
Monomers

What is the function of an enzyme?
To lower the activation energy/speed up a reaction
300
A molecule/compound that is nonpolar and can't be dissolved in water has this property. An example would be oil
Hydrophobic
400
Based on the image what type of macromolecule do you think this is?
Lipids

When humans sweat the water molecules help to cool our bodies down. This reflects what property of water?
High Specific Heat of Water
400
What are the monomers or building blocks of nucleic acids called?
Nucleotides

A reaction that breaks down a larger substrate into smaller products is called what?
Catabolic
400
What type of reaction is it where energy is stored up in the molecule?
Endothermic reaction

When we workout our body creates microtears in the muscles. Our body heals these microtears making us stronger. What macromolecule do you think aids in the repair of muscles
Proteins
500
What is the name of the weak bond that forms between two separate water molecules where one molecules positive end is attracted to the other molecules negative end
Hydrogen Bond
500
What is the function of a nucleic acid?
To store genetic information/instructions for making proteins
500
When an enzyme gets placed in an environment where the temperature or pH has changed drastically. The enzyme loses its shape and its function. This is called what?
Denature/Denaturing
Enzyme stops working
500
When a molecule has a slightly negative charge on one end and a slightly positive charge on the other end it is called what?
Polar Molecule
