Unit 1
Lipids
Carbs
Proteins
Nucleic Acids
100
This reaction involves breaking down a polymer into monomers using water
Hydrolysis
100
These lipids are composed of glycerol and three fatty acids and are a major form of energy storage in animals
Triglycerides
100
These are the simplest form of carbohydrates and include glucose and fructose.
Monosaccharides
100
Proteins are made of these building blocks.
Amino Acids
100
This nucleic acid stores genetic information in cells
DNA
200
This reaction involves joining two molecules together with the removal of water
Dehydration Synthesis
200
These lipids are key components of cell membranes and have hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions
Phospholipids
200
This type of carbohydrate includes starch, glycogen, and cellulose
Polysaccharides
200
Amino acids are linked together by this type of bond to form proteins.
Peptide Bond
200
This nucleic acid is involved in protein synthesis and comes in different forms like mRNA and tRNA
RNA
300
Proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids are all examples of these large biological molecules
Macromolecules
300
These fatty acids have no double bonds between carbon atoms and are typically solid at room temperature.
Saturated fatty acids
300
This polysaccharide is a major component of plant cell walls and is indigestible by humans.
Cellulose
300
This process involves the unfolding of a protein, leading to the loss of its function.
Denaturation
300
These are the building blocks of nucleic acids, composed of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
Nucleotides
400
What scientific concept is being shown here
Surface tension
400
This class of lipids includes hormones like testosterone and estrogen
steroids
400
Monosaccharides are linked together by this type of bond to form disaccharides and polysaccharides.
Glycosidic Linkage
400
This level of protein structure refers to the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain.
Primary structure
400
