Question
Answer
lactose is made of   glucose/galactose  
🗑
sucrose is made of   glucose/fructose  
🗑
maltose is made of   glucose/glucose  
🗑
Epimers only differ at   One Stereocenter, such as d-glucose and d-galactose  
🗑
Only monosaccarides are absorbed in digestion   true  
🗑
maltose is found in the   digestion of complex carbs and grains  
🗑
sucrose is found in   fruits, table sugar,honey, processed foods  
🗑
lactose   milk, dairy products  
🗑
unsaturated fatty acids have lower melting points in the saturated fatty acids due to .   kinks that are formed by the double bonds resulting in less stacking .  
🗑
longer the fatty acid chain,________ the melting point.   higher .  
🗑
Most Common Saturated Fatty Acids   long chain 12-20 carbons, even carbon #, saturated such as Palmitate (C16) and Stearate (C18) (mainly found in animal fat)  
🗑
Most common unsaturated fatty acids   oleate(C18:1 at 19) linoleate(C18:2 at 9/12) linolenate (C18:3 9/12/15).  
🗑
arachidonate,   C20:4 5,8,11,14,  
🗑
Essential Fatty Acids   Linoleate and Linolenate, must be obtained from diet  
🗑
Arachidonate is   not an essential fatty acid, C20:4 5,8,11,14  
🗑
Major acids produced by the body   phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, lactic acid, hydrochloric acid, ketone bodies acetoacetic acid and B-hydroxybutyric acid, C02 is also produced which combines with H20 to form carbonic acid catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase  
🗑
C02 + H20 -->H2C03 ---> H+ + HC03-   catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase  
🗑
Acetazolamide blocks   carbonic anhydrase and is usedd to treat glaucoma and altitude sickness  
🗑
The oxidation of glucose results in _________ and is done by ___________   gluconic acid, glucose oxidase, which is what labs use on dipsticks to test for glucose in urine  
🗑
Grey baby Syndrome   infants are unable to utilize oxidized glucose (glucoronic acid) to conjugate the drug chloramphenicol(antibiotic) results in high levels and toxicity  
🗑
glucose is reduced to   sorbitol and galactitol, sorbitol does not readily diffuse out of cells, it accumulates and can result in osmotic damage, cataracts and neuropathy  
🗑
Doctors can detect glucose in the urine using glucose oxidase dipstick tests, but what can they use to detect other sugars   REDUCING SUGAR TESTs  
🗑
Reducing sugar tests pick up what sugars   Sucrose, galactose and fructose  
🗑
Glycine   amino acid with no side chain, functions as inhibitory neurotransmitter and inhibited by strychnine  
🗑


   

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.
