Bond Basics
This type of bond involves the sharing of electrons
What is a covalent bond?
A molecule that interacts well with water is described as this.
What is hydrophilic?
This macromolecule is made of repeating sugar units.
What is carbohydrates?
This bond links monosaccharides together.
What is a glycosidic bond?
Which feature do prokaryotes and eukaryotes have in common?
What is plasma membranes?
How many single covalent bonds can Carbon form?
What is 4?
These elements are always electronegative and polar unless they are bound to each other
What is oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine
This macromolecule contains long hydrocarbon chains.
What is a lipid?
This bond links amino acids together.
what is a peptide bond?
Which organelle is found in plant cells but not animal cells?
What is Chloroplast?
What type of bond forms when electrons are fully transferred, not shared?
What is an ionic bond?
Water molecules stick to each other because of this type of interaction.
what is hydrogen bonding
This macromolecule’s monomers contain an amino group.
What is a protein?
This bond links fatty acids to glycerol.
what is an ester linkage?
What feature of the plasma membrane makes it selective to what passes through it?
what is the phospholipid bilayer containing a hydrophobic inside?
This type of bond is weaker than covalent bonds and often forms between water molecules.
What is a hydrogen bond?
Why do lipids not interact well with water?
What is because they contain mainly non polar C-H bonds?
Which of the following is the largest?
Monosaccharide, Polysaccharide, Disaccharide, sucrose
What are Polysaccharides?
This bond forms the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA.
what is a phosphodiester bond?
What kind of membrane would be tightly packed and not fluid
what is saturated and long fatty acid tails
This type of bond builds macromolecules by linking monomers together.
what is a covalent bond?
What feature of carbohydrates makes them generally polar?
What are multiple –OH (hydroxyl) groups?
This macromolecule contains phosphorus as part of its backbone.
What are nucleic acids?
This bond holds complementary DNA bases together between strands.
what are hydrogen bonds?
This macromolecule contains carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur
what are proteins?
