Monomers & Polymers
What are the monomers of proteins
Amino Acids
Which biomolecule provides the body with short-term, quickly accessible energy?
Carbohydrates
Glucose
Carbohydrate
What variable is purposely changed or manipulated by the experimenter?
Independent Variable
Plants grow faster when exposed to classical music
Claim
What are the monomers of nucleic acids?
Nucleotides
Which biomolecule provides the body with long-term, often stored energy?
Lipids
Fats, Oils, Waxes
Lipids
What variables are kept the same throughout the entire experiment?
Control variables (constants)
This evidence supports the claim because the increased height of the plants with music exposure indicates that the music may have a positive influence on plant growth
Reasoning
What are the monomers of Carbohydrates?
Monosaccharides
Which biomolecule provides a large variety of functions for the human body such as building muscle, but does NOT provide energy
Proteins
DNA & RNA
Nucleic Acids
What variable is measured as a result of the experiment?
Dependent Variable
Data, Observations, Text, anything that supports a claim.
Evidence
What is the term for long chains of monosaccharides?
Polysaccharides
Which biomolecule is responsible for storing genetic information?
Nucleic Acid
Enzymes
Proteins
Hypothesis: Room temperature affects a person's ability to concentrate. What is the independent variable?
Room temperature
In an experiment, a group of plants exposed to classical music for 2 hours daily grew an average of 2 inches taller than a control group without music
Evidence
What is another term for a protein polymer?
Polypeptide
Which biomolecule is the body's main source of energy?
Carbohydrates
This biomolecule is the main component of the cell membrane
Lipids (Phospholipids)
You want to compare brands of paper towels to see which holds the most liquid. What would be the dependent variable?
The amount of liquid
Explains HOW the evidence supports the claim
