What is the composition, function, and formation of fats
200
Ready source of energy
Part of backbone of nucleic acid
Involved in intracellular interactions between animal cells
Form cell wall (peptidoglycan)
Converted to A.A.=polysaccharides ->energy storage(glycogen)
What is the function of Carbohydrates

300
Functional state of the protein, composed of multiple shapes
What is the tertiary structure
300
Gene expression-the process by which we take DNA and make it into proteins.
What is the function of DNA, a nucleic acid
300
These organic molecules are broken down and reorganized into what is needed.
What is a protein
400

Water repellent, cell wall protection, difficult to kill
Water insoluble
What is waxes
400
Built by synthesis/anabolic reaction
Starch, cellulose(plant fiber), Glycogen(short term energy storage)
What is a polysaccharide
400
Loss of a proteins 3D shape due to changes in pH, temperature, salt concentration
What is denaturation
400
Protein synthesis-translation of protein

500
Structure, catalyst (enzymes), regulation of hormones, transport of chemicals, defense (antibodies), offense (bacteriocins)
What are the functions of protein
500
Easy to break down (no hydrogen backbones), ribosugar copy of DNA, sensitive to enzymatic breakdown.
