Water Chemistry
Basic Chemistry
Enzymes
Macromolecules
Macro molecules Polymers and Monomers
100
Property of water that says there is unequal sharing of electrons= positive and negative charge on molecule at the same time.
What is Polarity?
100
The simplest particle of an element that has all parts (protons, neutrons, electrons)
What are atoms?
100
a protein catalyst that speeds up the reactions, but is not used during the reaction - is is not changed or destroyed
What is the function of an enzyme?
100
they are the energy source in all organisms
What is the function of Carbohydrates?
100
Glucose Glycogen and cellulose
Monomer of Carbs Polymers of Carbs
200
Property of water that says there is attraction of molecules of the same kind ( water sticks to itself)
What is cohesion
200
the bond where atoms share EQUALLY to get an octet ( they are happy sharing)
What is a covalent bond?
200
the energy that is needed to start a reaction
What is Activation energy
200
long term energy storage, insulation, organ protection and nerve function
What is the function of lipids?
200
glycerol, fatty acids triglyceride
Monomer of Lipids Polymers of lipids
300
Property of water that says there is attraction between different substances ( water sticks to other things, like leaves)
What is adhesion?
300
When atoms give or take away elections to form an octet (happy, but not sharing)
What is a ionic bond?
300
The more of it, the slower the enzyme works
What does amount of substrate have to do with enzyme?
300
major building block in living things, muscles, enzymes, antibodies and cell structure.
What is the function of proteins?
300
amino acids, essential amino acids polypeptides
Monomer of proteins Polymer of Proteins
400
Cohesive force that forces water to form a "film" on the top layer of water molecules ( like droplets of water)
What is surface tension?
400
When two or more atoms are bonding together.
What is a molecule?
400
Temperature, pH, amount of substrate and amount of enzyme.
What affects enzyme action?
400
DNA- genetic code RNA- used to make proteins
What is the function of nucleic acids?
500
the attractive force between a positive hydrogen and another negative molecule ( like hydrogen is attracted to oxygen in water)
What is a hydrogen bond?
500
Neutrons
Which has a neutral charge ( protons, neutrons or electrons)
500
What the enzyme works on.
What is a substrate?
500
Dehydration is how you make bonds hydrolysis is how you break bonds
What is the difference between dehydration and hydrolysis?
500
phosphate, 5 carbon sugar, nitrogen base.
parts of a nucleotide
