Monomers
The monomer for carbohydrates.
What are monosaccharides?
The function of lipids.
What is long term energy storage?
An area with a specific sharpened charge. It is where chemical reactions take place.
What is the active site of an enzyme?
A substance or material consisting of very large molecules called macromolecules, composed of many repeating subunits.
What is a polymer?
The monomers for lipids.
What are fatty acids?
The function of carbohydrates.
What is a quick term energy source?
What is released by an enzyme at the end of the chemical reaction.
What are products?
A longer, continuous, unbranched peptide chain.
What is a polypeptide?
The monomer for proteins.
What are amino acids?
The function of proteins.
What is structure?
Reactants for a chemical reaction catalyzed by an enzyme.
What is a substrate?
This part of a phospholipid are hydrophiid, meaning they are resistant to water. They are also made of fatty acids.
What are phospholipid tails.
The monomer for nucleic acids.
What are nucleotides?
What is Dna and Rna?
The minimum energy required to cause a process (such as a chemical reaction) to occur.
What is activation energy?
This part of a phospholipid are hydrophilic meaning, they love water.
What are phospholipid heads?
The most abundant carbohydrates found in food.
