What are TWO examples of nucleic acids.

DNA

RNA

In the yeast lab, what were two constants? 

Constant means SAME: the water, the test tubes, the yeast, the temperature of the room and water, etc.

What kind of macromolecules are proteins, and what are the monomers? 

Enzymes are PROTEINS made of AMINO ACIDS.

200

This ending on words means "sugar." 

-ose

200

This is the function of lipids that explains why animals that live in cold water have so much fat. 

Insulation

Nucleotides

200

What was the independent variable in the yeast lab? 

The independent variable was the sugar.

200

What is the three-letter word ending for enzymes? 

Enzymes end with the letters -ase:

protease

amylase

lipase

300

What three elements are in carbohydrates? 

carbon, hydrogen, oxygen

300

Glycerol and fatty acid

300

What is the name of this protein (#1) that attacks antigens?


This is an ANTIBODY. It helps fight diseases.

300

What are the complementary base pair rules for DNA? 

A matches T and C matches G.

300

What was the dependent variable in the yeast lab?

The dependent variable was the growth/height of the yeast in test tubes.

300

What are A, B, and C in this picture?

A = Substrate (the thing the enzyme is reacting with)

B = Active Site

C = Enzyme


400

This is the name of the carbohydrate found in the cell wall of plant cells. 

Cellulose

400

How does the cell membrane provide homeostasis? 

The cell membrane controls what goes in and out of cells so that they can stay regulated by having what they need and taking out the waste they don't need.

400

Give TWO examples of protein STRUCTURES in the human body.

Hair, nails, collagen

400

What is the main FUNCTION of DNA?

DNA passes on the genetic information to create a protein for a trait. 

400

What was the CONTROL in the yeast lab? 

The control was the two test tubes with NO sugar.


400

Tell one reason why we need enzymes.

Enzymes help us speed up reactions like digesting food. They help us save energy.

500

This is the name of the carbohydrate found in the cell wall of fungi and in the exoskeleton of insects.

CHITIN.

500

How is the energy provided by lipids different from the energy provided by carbohydrates? 

Lipid energy is long-term energy, not short-term energy.

500

Insulin is an example of this.

A hormone, a kind of protein. 

500

What five elements are found in nucleic acids, and which of those elements is NOT found in the other macromolecules? 

Macromolecules have:

-Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus. PHOSPHORUS is ONLY in nucleic acids.
