Water!
Hydrogen Bonds!
Name the biological macro molecule with a 1:2:1 ratio between carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
Carbohydrates!
What does it mean when a protein is denatured?
It becomes useless!
What does amylase do?
Breaks down starches in your mouth!
Name the result of a substrate and an enzyme.
A product!
What happens during Hydrolysis?
A water molecule is used to bond together two monomers!
The only non-polar biological molecule
Lipids!
In which stage of the protein structure do proteins interact with other proteins?
Quartenary!
Pepsin and Hydrochloric acid breaks down food, breaking down proteins!
Name all the mechanisms that increase/decrease the rate of an enzyme's function
Explain why we love water so much! (In reference to biology)
I decide if you're right :)
Name the bonds between amino acids, lipids, and carbohydrates
In order, Peptide, Ester and Glycosidic!
What is an inhibitor?
They bind to enzymes, preventing substrates from binding!
Name the correct order of the parts of the small intestine.
- Duodenum
- Jejunum
- Ileum
Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileum.
List all the MONOMERS of the biological molecules. You need 3 to count as correct!
Amino acids, Monosaccarides, Fatty Acids and Glycerols, Nucleotides
19 Amino acid chain together. How many water molecules are created?
18 :)
There is one fat that is solid at room temperature, and another that is liquid. Why is this?
2x Points!
Saturated fats can pack tightly, thus becoming solid, while unsaturated fats cannot due to the double bonds present between their carbon atoms.
If a patient cannot break down complex polysaccharides, what biological macromolecule is most likely malfunctioning?
2x Points!
If you're having a hard time digesting fat, what part of the digestive system is having trouble?
The liver! (The gallbladder also counts!)
Describe the allosteric site.
An area on an enzyme that changes the fundamental shape of the enzyme, either increasing or decreasing the speed of the reaction!
Adhesion is the sticking of water to other materials, Cohesion is the sticking of water to itself!
I'll decide if you're right or not :)
Tommy is a struggling high school student. He's been having trouble in school recently due to this girl he really likes and can't seem to get over. He is so head over heels for her he begins to feel terribly ill. He slumps around all day at home before deciding that he should eat something to feel better. He decides to cook some eggs and bacon to try and get some energy in him. Explain what happens to eggs and why it would benefit him.
The proteins denature, allowing for easier breakdown in the stomach! :)
Name all the digestive enzymes we have learned about + descriptions.
I decide :)
Draw a biological macromolecule on the board!
