Basic Chemistry + Properties of Water
The number of valence electrons needed to fulfill the octet rule
8 valence electrons
This type of molecule only contains carbons and hydrogens
Hydrocarbons
This type of linkage occurs between carbohydrates
Glycosidic Linkage
Endergonic and nonspontaneous
Harmful peroxides are formed in this organelle which are then broken down by this enzyme
Peroxisomes; catalase
Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen, and Oxygen
Alcohols contain this functional group and have this suffix
Hydroxyl (-OH); end in "-ol"
This type of fatty acid bends at the hydrocarbon chain
These are the three types of work that living systems must perform
Hydrostatic pressure, keeps cells rigid, is also known as this
Turgor
This is also known as "salts," "acids," or "bases"
Ionic compounds
Thiols contain this functional group
Sulfhydryl (-SH)
This enzyme is required to catalyze the formation of peptide bonds
Peptidyl transferase
This type of inhibition has substrates binding away from the active site
Allosteric inhibition/noncompetitive inhibition
Cilia and flagella construction follow this "rule"
Polarity
Organic acids contain this functional group
Carboxyl (-COOH)
This many hydrogen bonds are found within C and G in DNA
3 H-bonds
These are the three other ways that metabolic pathways can be regulated by enzymes
In microtubules, dimers made of tubulin are added from this end
+ end
In solution, water forms this structure around ions to keep them separated
Hydration spheres
These two functional groups can be found within amino acids
Amino (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH)
These four factors can cause denaturation of proteins
High temperatures, pH change, changes in ionic strength, and solubility
These three laws govern metabolic pathways
Law of Conservation of Matter, 1st Law of Thermodynamics, and 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
This cytoskeletal element forms the nuclear lamina
Intermediate filaments
