Three types of carbohydrates, composition of and examples
What is: Monosaccharide -- single sugar, glucose
Disaccharide -- double sugar, sucrose and lactose
Polysaccharide -- complex CHO, glycogen and starch
100
Basic unit of proteins
What is: amino acids
200
Atomic number
What is: Number of protons in the nucleus
200
Form when an atom gains or loses electrons in its outer energy level to become stable.
What is: Ion
200
Chemical reaction in which water is the end product
(reactants combine only when two hydrogen (H) atoms and an oxygen (O) atoms come together)
What is: Dehydration synthesis
200
Major organic compounds found in the body
What is: Carbohydrates, lipids (fats), proteins and nucleic acids
200
Example of a structural protein
What is: collagen
300
Molecule
What is: Particle composed of two or more atoms bonded together
300
Compound that forms ions when dissolved (dissociate) in water
What is: Electrolyte
300
Body system that increases the loss of CO2 with resultant increase of pH in the blood
What is: Respiratory system
300
Three types of lipids
What is: Triglycerides, phosolipids, cholesterol
300
Enzyme action in which each enzyme fits into a particular molecule
What is: Lock-and-key model
400
Two atoms that have the same atomic number but different atomic masses
What is: Isotope
400
Covalent bonds
What is: Form when atoms "share" their outer energy to fill up and thus become stable.
400
Acids
What is: Compounds that produce excess H+ ions
400
Converted into steroid hormones (estrogen, testosterone, cortisol) by the body
What is Cholesterol
400
Components of a nucleotide unit
What is : Sugar (ribose and deoxyribose)
Phosphate
Nitrogen base (adenine thymine, guanine, cytosine,
uracil)
500
Protons
Neutrons
What is: Positively charged particles in nucleus
Non-charged particles in nucleus
500
Ionic bond
What is: Form when oppositely charged ions attract each other to make their energy level full
500
pH of a base
What is: greater than 7 and up to 14
500
Difference between high-density and low-density lipoproteins
What is: High-density lipoproteins carry cholesterol away from the cells and toward the liver for elimination. Therefore have more protein and less lipids.
Low-density lipoproteins have more lipids and less protein.
