Question
Answer
Carbohydrate   - molecules composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen - include sugar and starches. - CHO, 1:2:1 Ratio, C 6 H 12 O 6 d  
🗑
What are some examples of carbohydrates   - Pasta - Bread - Wheat  
🗑
Monosaccharides   - simple sugars in carbohydrat  
🗑
How many simple sugars are in a carbohydrate   - five or six carbon atoms  
🗑
Monomers   Each subunit in the complete molecule  
🗑
Polymer   Large molecule, or a macro molecule, made of many monomers bonded together.  
🗑
Lipids   -nonpolar molecules that include fats, oils, and cholesterol. -most lipids contain chains of carbon atoms bonded to oxygen and hydrogen atoms. - Some lipids are broken down as a source of usable energy for cell  
🗑
What is the job of lipids   store energy  
🗑
What are fatty acids   are chains of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms.  
🗑
Protein   - is a polymer made of monomers called amino acids. - CHON  
🗑
What is the job of protein   - Build, Repair, Maintain  
🗑
Amino acids   are molecules that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, and sometimes sulfur.  
🗑
How many amino acids are used to build proteins   Organisms use 20 different amino acids. Body can make 12 of the amino acids others come from foods such as meat, beans, and nuts  
🗑
Nucleic Acids   - are polymers that are made up of monomers called nucleo tides - CHONP - Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus  
🗑
Nucleotides   - composed of sugar - phosphate group - DNA & RNA.  
🗑
What is the job of Nucleic Acids   - Work together to make proteins.  
🗑
What is the relationship between a polymer and a monomer   - Monomers are sub units many of these monomers make up a large macro molecule called polymers  
🗑
Explain how both nucleic acids and proteins are polymers. Be sure to describe the monomers that make up the polymers   - Both are made up of monomers (protein - amino acids) (nucleic acids- nucleotide)  
🗑
How are carbohydrates and lipids similar? How are they different?    
🗑


   

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.
