CHON
What is the monomer and polymer for a Nucleic Acid?
-Monomer:Nucleotides,
polymer:pentosugar
What is the substance that speeds up a chemical reaction called?
Catalyst
What elements make up Carbohydrates-
-Carbon,Hydrogen,Oxygen (CHO) Ratio will always be 121.
What is the monomer and polymer for a Lipid?
Monomer-fatty acids,
polymer:lacsace
What is the monomer and polymer for a Protein?
Monomer:Amino Acid,
polymer:polypeptide
What is the shape of a nucleic acid?
-Double helix (twisted ladder)
How do enzymes affect the reactions in living cells?
Enzymes catalyze reactions by lowering the activation energy of reactants
What is the monomer and polymer for a Carbohydrate?-
monomer:monosaccharide (ex glucose) polymer:polysaccharide
What is the shape of a lipid?-
cylinder
What is the shape of a protein?
Chain
What are the main components of a nucleic acid? (hint: there are three)-
Adedia
Thymine
Guynie
Whats an induced fit
A change in the shape of an enzymes active site
What is the shape of a carbohydrate?
-hexygon or ring shape
What is the difference between a saturated and unsaturated lipid?-
-Unsaturated fat:At Least one double bond (easier to break down)
Saturated fats:No double bonds
What is a Nucleic Acid?
Store genetic information (DNA and RNA)
What is the energy called that is needed to get a reaction started?
Activation energy
Lock and Key
the enzymes specifically fit the reactants
What is a Lipid?
Fat and oils-long chains of c-h bonds
What is a Protein?-
Group of Amino Acids
What elements make up Nucleic Acids?
CHONP
What is an exothermic and endothermic reaction?
Exothermic:Chemical reaction that releases energy.
endothermic:absorb heat energy from the surroundings to form products.
Competitive and Non-competitive
Competitive- Chemicals that resemble an enzymes normal substrate and compete with it for the active site
Non-competitive-Do not enter the active site,but bind into another part of the enzyme causing enzyme to change shape,Which in turn alters the active site.
