What are the properties of water?
The four macromolecules.
What are carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids?
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions. They are ____.
What are enzymes?
Should be done instead of smelling chemicals.
What is waft?
All living things are made up of these basic units of life.
What are cells?
The unequal sharing of electrons.
What is polar?
These macromolecules are the body’s main source of quick energy. Contains: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
What are carbohydrates?
Enzymes speed up reactions but lowering ____.
What is activation energy?
Used to measure 10ml of alcohol in a lab
What is a graduated cylinder?
This characteristic explains why your body maintains a stable internal temperature even when it’s hot outside.
What is homeostasis?
Water being pulled up from a plants roots to its leaves.
What is capillary action?
Help build muscle, repair tissue, and act as enzymes.
What are proteins?
Each enzyme works on a specific substance, called _____, which fits into the enzyme’s active site like a key in a lock.
What is a substrate?
Ocular lens x objective lens
What is the formula for total magnification?
A sunflower turning toward the sunlight demonstrates this characteristic of life.
What is response to stimuli?
Water molecules stick to other water molecules because of this type of bond. This property explains why water forms droplets.
What is hydrogen bonding and cohesion?
These macromolecules are composed mostly of carbon and hydrogen atoms, are not soluble in water, and are important for long-term energy storage and insulation.
What are lipids?
Some molecules can bind to an enzyme’s active site and block the substrate from binding. What are these molecules called?
What are inhibitors?
This piece of lab equipment protects from chemicals, glass shards, and debris, and is required in almost all lab work.
What are safety goggles?
All living things must pass on their genetic information to offspring.
What is reproduction?
Ice floats in water because water is _______ than ice. This is essential to aquatic life.
What is more dense?
These macromolecules are built from monomers, each containing a sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogenous base. They store and transmit hereditary information.
What are nucleic acids?
High heat or extreme pH can cause this irreversible process, where the enzyme’s three-dimensional structure unravels, destroying its active site and stopping its function.
What is denaturation?
