What are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen?
The property of water that allows water molecules to stick to each other.
What is cohesion?
The definition of a polymer.
Include the name for carbohydrate molecules of this type for full points.
What is monomers linked together to create a more complex molecule? What is polysaccharide?
The molecule that bonds to the enzyme to be changed in some way.
What is the substrate?
Madi's middle name.
What is Eve? :)
The building block of a carbohydrate.
What is a monosaccharide?
The property of water that allows plants to move water up their stems against the force of gravity.
What is adhesion?
A condensation reaction between two carbohydrates that creates disaccharides or polysaccharides.
What is a glycosidic bond?
Proteins that are spherical, play a role in cell metabolism, are complex polypeptide chains that can be linked to other chains to form complex protein and are soluble in water (hydrophobic r groups are hidden from water).
What are globular proteins?
Madi's preferred bubble tea flavor.
What is thai tea?
The process of condensing molecules in order to make a more complex molecule.
What is anabolism?
The property of water that allows water to absorb high heat before it changes physical states.
What is the thermal property of water?
A condensation reaction between two lipids that creates a triglyceride.
What is an ester bond?
The two ways enzymes increase reaction frequency.
What are lowering activation energy and bringing the two substrates together?
Madi's favorite musical artist in high school.
What is One Direction?
The components of a triglyceride.
What are three fatty acids and one glycerol?
The property of water that allows for molecules to be dissolved in the bloodstream for transport.
What is the solvent property?
The type of fat that has multiple bends, but is still dense and often made artificially.
What is a trans polyunsaturated fat?
The two ways proteins can be denatured, and how denaturing happens.
What is high pH, high temperature and the bonds holding the polypeptide in its shape break down, leaving the now straight polypeptide in the right location without the right function.
Madi's siblings' names.
What is Truly and Gavin?
Bonds where one atom is more negative than the other.
What is a polar covalent bond?
Biomolecules found in our bloodstream (name 3 for full points).
What are glucose, amino acids, fats, cholesterol, sodium chloride and oxygen?
A monounsaturated fat. Include an example for full points!
What is a fat that has one double bond, carbons not saturated with hydrogen because of bonding to another carbon, does not fit together well so easy to separate from each other?
Examples: whole milk, avocado
Process using immobilized enzymes to create milk without lactose.
What is using alginate beads to filter milk, the enzymes within the beads break down the lactose into glucose and galactose, milk is tested for glucose content after each filtration?
Process of protein conformation creation.
What is polypeptide chains fold into beta pleats and alpha helices, then hydrogen bonds disulfide bridges etc. fold multiple secondary structure into a tertiary structure, then multiple tertiary structures are folded into a quaternary structure, and prosthetic groups may be added here to create a conjugated protein?
