What is the function of carbohydrates? 

Quick energy 

100

The building blocks of proteins.

What are amino acid?

100

What is the function of fats? 

stored energy - 2x as much energy as proteins or carbs 

100

What is the function of an enzyme?

to speed up chemical reactions 

100

What color would a positive iodine turn and what type of carbohydrate would test positive?

Blue black or purple, polysaccharide 

200

What are the "building blocks" of carbohydrates? 

What are monosaccharides?

200
The bond that links amino acids together.
What is a peptide bond?
200

What are the "building blocks" of fats? 

1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids 

200

What kind of molecules is an enzyme - a protein a fat or a carbohydrate? 

protein

200

Why did the food coloring act different in the different milks? 

Because they had different amounts of fats 

300

Which is the largest molecule, therefore having the most energy ( more bonds) 

Sucrose

Glucose

Starch 

Starch - polysaccharide 

as the bonds break, energy is released 

300

How many different amino acids are there? 

20

300

What is the name of the process of building a larger molecule and losing a water called? 

Dehydration synthesis 

300

When a reaction is heated up a little, what will happen? 

Greater reaction because molecules move faster, colliding more 

300
Explain how to do the Benedict's test and what it tests for and what color it would turn 

5 drops and heat - turns orange. Monosaccharide. 

400

In our lab, what results would you get with sucrose for the benedict's test and the iodine test?

There would be no change with either b/c sucrose is a disaccharide

400

What are the functions of proteins? 

build and repair muscle, enzymes and hormones 

hair and nails. At least 2 

400

Which are healthy and which are unhealthy? 

Trans Fats

Unsaturated fats

Saturated fats 

Trans fats and saturated fats are unhealthy

Unsaturated fats are healthy

400

If a reaction is heated up VERY high, what will happen and why? 

The reaction will stop b/c the heat will kill the enzyme 

400

In the potato lab, what was the substrate and what was the name of the enzyme? 

The substrate was hydrogen peroxide and the enzyme was catalase - in the potato

500

What is the formula for glucose?

What is C6H12O6?

500

What 4 elements make up proteins? 

carbon 

hydrogen

oxygen

nitrogen 

500

What type of fat is this? 


Polyunsaturated fat 

b/c it has many double bonds 

500

Label this reaction 


A substrate

B active site 

C enzyme 

D products 

500

Why did the ground up potato have a bigger reaction? 

More surface area releases more enzymes, bigger reaction
