What is law of conservation of mass?
200
the sequence of amino acids
What is primary structure of protein?
200
principal energy source in animals; stored in liver and muscle
What is glycogen?
200
a mass of 1 AMU and a charge of zero
What is neutron?
300
The sharing of electrons between atoms
What is a covalent bond?
300
This is the property that causes water to be "sticky"; it wants to stay together more than be apart due to strong hydrogen bonds
What is cohesion?
300
the type of bond between amino acids in a protein
What is a peptide bond?
300
Fatty acids with single AND double bonds
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
300
a protein that loses its structure is said to be this
What is denatured?
400
The electrical attraction between oppositely charged ions
What is ionic bond?
400
This is the ability of water to absorb a lot of heat from the environment before changing temperature (water temperature stays constant in oceans)
What is high specific heat?
400
bonding along the backbone
What is secondary structure of protein?
400
the name of the bond involved in between a glycerol and three fatty acids in a triglyceride
What is an ester linkage?
400
lipid molecule that makes up cell membranes - controls what goes in and out of cells
What is a phospholipid?
500
This part of the atom determines how it will react chemically
What is electron?
500
When the electric charge in the covalent bonds between O and H in water is unequal (due to differences in electronegativity), the covalent bond is said to be this.
What is polar covalent?
500
An amino group, an acid (carboxyl) group and an R group
What are parts of an amino acid?
500
monosaccharides are linked by this bond in a carbohydrate
What is a glycosidic linkage?
500
most abundant organic compound on Earth; provides mechanical strength to plant cell walls
