Question
Answer
lipids   nonpolar, insoluble in water, hydrocarbons, have 3 types  
🗑
3 types of lipid   fats, phospholipids, steroids  
🗑
fats   energy storage molecules  
🗑
phospholipids   component of cell membranes  
🗑
steroids   hormones  
🗑
saturated   hard fat (most animal fats), single bonds betwn carbon pairs, solid at room temp.  
🗑
unsaturated   oil (most plant fats), double bonds betwn one or more pairs of carbon atoms, liquid at room temp.  
🗑
monounsaturated   fats have one double bond in the fatty acid chains. Olive, peanut, canola oil  
🗑
polyunsaturated   fats have two or more double bonds in their fatty acid chains. Corn, soy bean, sunflower  
🗑
trans fat   partially hydrogenated  
🗑
essential fatty acids   linoleic acid, linolenic acid, arachidonic acid  
🗑
phospholipids   modified fat, replaced by a phosphate and a small polar functional group  
🗑
what do phospholipid form in water?   a lipid bilayer; hydrophobic tails attract each other and the heads face outward  
🗑
steroids   composed of 4 carbon rings; examples Cholesterol and sex hormones  
🗑
amino acids   monomer subunits that makes up proteins  
🗑
peptide bonds   link amino acids monomers together  
🗑
polypeptide (protein)   macromolecule that's made of amino acid linked by peptide bonds  
🗑
protein structure is determined by what?   the sequence of its amino acids  
🗑
are enzymes protein? Are protein enzymes?   enzymes are protein, but not all protein are enzymes  
🗑
what serves as blueprints for proteins?   DNA and RNA  
🗑
nucleotides   long polymers of repeating monomer subunits  
🗑
3 parts of nucleotides   phosphate, five-carbon sugar, nitrogen-containing base  
🗑
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid): Sugar? Bases? How many strand?   Sugar = deoxyribose; Bases = A-G, C-T; doubl stranded  
🗑
RNA (ribonucleic acid): Sugar? Bases? how many strand?   Sugar = Ribose; bases = A-G, C-U; single stranded  
🗑
genes   stretches of a DNA molecule; program the amino acid sequences of proteins  
🗑
Common features of life   all form of life are: made of cells; have carbo, lipids, and proteins; have DNA; each species of its own DNA sequence  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
