Bio Lab 1 Exam Prep

QuestionAnswer
What are the steps to the scientific method? 1. make observations & state the question to be investigated 2. collect info about the problem 3. formulate a testable hypothesis 4. make a prediction based on the hypothesis 5. conduct experiment to test hypothesis 6. come to a conclusion based on
What is hexose? A six carbon sugar such as galactose, fructose, and glucose
Is time independent or dependent? independent
Where does the title for a table go? the top
Where does the graph title go? on the bottom
Where does the dependent variable go on a graph? the Y-axis
Where does the independent variable go? the X-axis
What value is used for the independent variable? the level of treatment
What is the most important property of the hypothesis? it must be testable
What are the two different variables? independent and dependent
What is a dependent variable? date- you can have as many as you want
What is an independent variable? the variable that is manipulated- you can only have 1
What is the control group/variable? the group that is treated like the experiment, but does not have the independent variable
What is the formula for a prediction statement? If... then/ if... restate hypothesis
Step 1 of the scientific method Make observations and state the question to be investigated
Step 2 of the scientific method Collect info about the problem
Step 3 of the scientific method formulate a testable hypothesis
Step 4 of the scientific method make a prediction based on the hypothesis
Step 5 of the scientific method conduct experiment to test hypothesis
Step 6 of the scientific method conclusion based on the hypothesis
What are controlled variables? variables that are kept constant/optimal
What are the prefixes from smallest to largest? milli, centi, deci, (base), deca, hecto, kilo
milli 1/1000
centi 1/100
deci 1/10
base (meter/gram/liter) 1
deca 10
hecto 100
kilo 1000
What is accuracy? the closeness of your answer to the expected answer
What is used to measure accuracy? mean
What is precision? standard deviation- the closeness of trials to each other
What does a smaller standard deviation mean? more precision
What are the properties of water? polar covalent bond between atoms, hydrogen bonds between molecules, cohesion, adhesion, universal solvent
What is a polar covalent bond? When atoms share their electrons unequally
What is a non polar covalent bond? When atoms share their electrons equally
What is an ionic bond? When one atom transfers their electrons to another atom
What is cohesion? water molecules attracted together/ held by hydrogen bonds
Is oil cohesive? no
What is a solvent? substance doing the dissolving
What is a solute? what is being dissolved
What is adhesion? water's attraction to other molecules
What happens when salt dissolves? in released + & - ions that water then surrounds. The + ions connect to the - part of the water. The - ions connect to the + part of water.
What is the hydrogen to oxygen ratio? 2-1
What test is used for monosaccharides? Benedict's test
What color is Benedict's solution? blue- note it has to be boiled
What color is iodine? orange
What are the different lipids? steroids, triglycerides, phospholipids
What test is used for polysaccarides? Iodine test
Carbohydrates= energy
What happens to Iodine when polysaccarhides are added? it turns black
What happens to Benedict's solution when monosaccarides are added? it turns orange
What are the classifications of saccharides? mono, di, and poly
Saccharides= sugar
Are lipids polar or non polar? Where do they go when mixed with water? Nonpolar. They float on the top.
What happens to salt when water boils? The salt comes back together
What happens to salt when mixed with water? it spreads
What are steroids made of? cholesterol
What are triglycerides made of? 1 glycerol, 3 fatty acids
What are phospholipids made of? 1 glycerol, 2 fatty acids, 1 phosphate group, 1 nitrogen
Controls for monosaccharide test + 5% glucose, - water
Controls for iodine test for starch + 5% starch, - water
Controls for biuret test for protein + 1% egg albumin (egg whites), - 1% water
Controls for lipid test for fats + vegetable oil, - water
What is a molecule? 2 or more atoms joined by chemical bonds
What is organic? A compound containing carbon
What are the 4 classes of biomolecules? Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids
What is a carbohydrate made of? Formula? Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen. C(H2O)n
What is starch, glycogen, and cellulose? polysaccharides
Lactose milk sugar- glucose + galactose
Maltose glucose + glucose
Sucrose glucose + fructose
Disaccharide= 2 sugars
Monosaccharide= one sugar
Polysaccharide= many sugars
What is lactose, maltose, and sucrose? disaccharides
What is glucose, galactose, and fructose? hexose
Galactose non found in nature- it usually combines with other sugars
Glucose blood sugar
Fructose fruit sugar
How are carbohydrates classified? poly/mono/di
Do all disaccharides have a glucose? yes
What are peptide bonds? covalent bond of proteins
