Water is produced in this type of enzyme-catalyzed reaction.
What is condensation?
Monosaccharides with 5 carbon atoms, such as ribose, fall into this category.
What are pentose sugars?
Fatty acid consist of one methyl group, one carboxyl group, and more than one of these.
What are hydrocarbon chains?
In the primary structure, amino acids are connected with these types of bonds.
What are peptide bonds?
This suffix is used to show that a protein is an enzyme.
What is -ase?
Any substance that cannot be dissolved (insoluble) in water is given this label.
What is hydrophobic?
Each carbon in a monosaccharide is numbered going in this direction, starting from the oxygen atom.
What is clockwise?
What is saturated?
Some quaternary structures may include this non-living group.
What is a prosthetic group?
This factor affecting enzyme activity leads to a plateau in its graph.
What is substrate concentration?
Cohesion allows water to have this property that allows small organisms to float on its surface.
What is surface tension?
This disaccharide is formed from the condensation of glucose and fructose.
What is sucrose?
This type of lipid is bent, lowering its melting point and reducing its ability to be packed.
What is a cis-isomer?
The tertiary structure consists of multiple instances of either beta-pleated sheets or this twisted structure.
What are alpha-helices?
This enzyme is used in industry to clarify fruit juices during juice production.
What is pectinase?
Due to this property of water, aquatic ecosystems do not freeze completely in the winter.
What is density?
This polysaccharide formed from beta-d-glucose is used as a structural component in the cell wall.
What is cellulose?
Lipids are stored in these cells (or groups of cells) that specialize in fats storage.
What are adipocytes (or adipose tissue)?
This fibrous protein found in skin, tendons, and ligaments provides strength to various body parts.
What is collagen?
Lactase is immobilized in this form when used in industry.
What are sodium alginate beads?
Although this molecule is non-polar, it's size allows it to be partially soluble in water.
What is oxygen gas (O2)?
The difference in alpha-d-glucose and beta-d-glucose lies in the placement of the hydroxyl group at this carbon atom.
What is Carbon-1?
Scientists may say that a diet rich in fat leads to coronary heart disease, but this African tribe's diet begs to differ.
What is the Maasai tribe?
Denaturation at pH extremes may affect this type of intramolecular bonding.
What is ionic bonding?
Plants are able to photosynthesize as a result of this enzyme that fixates CO2 from the atmosphere.
What is rubisco?
