What are the 7 properties of life?
Primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary.
What are the four structures of protein?
The sum of protons and neutrons.
What is Atomic Mass?
When two atoms share electrons to become stable.
What is a covalent bond?
a 5-carbon sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group.
What makes up a nucleotide?
Protists, Plantae, Fungi, and Animalia.
What are the four kingdoms within Domain Eukarya?
These come together to form a bilayer and create a membrane around various cells and molecules.
What are phospholipids?
This type of molecule will interact with water.
What is hydrophilic?
8 electrons create the most stable outer electron shell, the valence shell.
What is the Octet Rule?
Three hydrogen bonds.
How many bonds can guanine and cytosine make?
A possible explanation for why something is happening that needs to be tested further.
What is a hypothesis?
These help chemical reactions in the body happen faster by creating a more stable molecule during the transition phase of a chemical reaction.
What are enzymes?
A carbon atom single bonded to two other atoms and double bonded to an oxygen atom.
What is the carbonyl group?
When one atom pulls electrons from another atom creating different charges.
What is an ionic bond?
Adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine.
What are the 4 nitrogenous bases that make up DNA?
A difference in phenotypes leading to changes in heritable traits that can hurt or help a population over generations.
When a gene's information is transcribed from DNA to RNA, then carried to the protein manufacturing part of a cell and then translated into a chain of protein building blocks.
What is gene expression?
Carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen.
What are the 4 elements that make up 97% of all living matter?
When two molecules bond together by losing water.
What is dehydration reaction?
Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
What are the 4 biomolecules found in all living organisms?
Mutations that change the sequence of DNA and result in changes in traits.
What causes genetic variation?
Denaturation, enzyme inhibitors, enzyme activators, coenzymes, cleavage.
What are examples of things that can affect enzyme activity?
A chemical property that shows the tendency of an atom, molecule, functional group, etc. to pull electrons toward itself.
What is electronegativity?
When the amino group of one amino acid bonds with the carboxyl group of another amino acid.
What is a peptide bond?
This has the max number of hydrogen bonds, no double bonds and can cause blockages in the blood stream.
What are saturated fats?
