Found in DNA and RNA and are made up of many nucleotides in a long chain. It stores information about how to make proteins.

What kind of reaction does this graph show?
Exothermic reaction
These kinds of saccharides transport monosaccharides through the body
Disaccharides
This can be linked and used in many different ways, making it not needed in such high numbers for structure
Monomers
An organic molecule with an asymmetric carbon in the middle of the structure; 20 different ways of organization, is the monomer of proteins
Amino Acids
This monomer makes up nucleic acids

Nucleotide
Area of an enzyme that the protein bonds to during a reaction
Active site
These kinds of saccharides are used for structure and energy storage
Polysaccharides

What does this drawing represent?
Condensation
This kind of structure coils and folds resulting in a helix or sheet formation
Secondary structure
Plays a role in forming and maintaining cell membranes and structures
Cholesterol
These building components are the reason for structural differences in polysaccharides
Monosaccharides

What does this drawing represent?
Hydrolysis
This structure is held together with disulfide bridges and the overall shape of the protein results from the secondary structure
Tertiary structure

What two fats does this drawing represent?
Saturated and Unsaturated
The process by which a protein's various structures are stripped due to a strong acid or base or some other stress
Denaturing
Fatty acids that are insoluble in water. There are many kinds of these things. Used to store energy in many cases.
Lipids
This problematic situation of infecting cells and having no cure is due to what kind of protein?
Prion
