Chemistry of the Cell-Test #1

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Front
Back
show Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nirtrogen, Sulfur, Phosphorus  
🗑
show Hydrogen, Oxygen  
🗑
What are the trace elements?   show
🗑
Bond   show
🗑
Covalent Bond   show
🗑
Polar Covalent Bond   show
🗑
Nonpolar Covalent Bond   show
🗑
Ionic Bond   show
🗑
Example of Ionic Bond   show
🗑
show weaker than covalent or ionic bonds. Are stable in large molecules w/ many hydrogen bonds. Imp. in secondary structure of proteins.  
🗑
show weaker than hydrogen bonds. Found in macromolecules. interaction b/w aromatic compounds. distance is crucial; not too close/not too far. Found in interaction b/w stacked bases in DNA  
🗑
show In interior of molecules sequestered from water on exterior. b/w nonpolar molecules that come together to limit exposure to water-lipids. More stable when hyrdrophobic regions are near one another.  
🗑
Carbon   show
🗑
show carbon w/ 4 diff. attached groups. Can have 2 diff. spatial arrangements. Stereoisomers (mirror images)  
🗑
show Makes up 75-85% of cell weight-most abundant component. Is a polar molecule. POLARITY: bond angles b/w O & H; separation charges-one end more negative than other; affects cohesiveness, heat capacity, & solvent prop.  
🗑
Water   show
🗑
show Heat Capacity: specific heat high b/c of hyrdrogen bonds; amt absorbed/gram to increase temp 1°C. can absorb heat released during chemical rxns.  
🗑
Water   show
🗑
show Macromolecules that have polar and non polar regions  
🗑
What do amphipathic molecules form?   show
🗑
Macromolecules   show
🗑
What are macromolecules composed of?   show
🗑
Synthesis of macromolecule from smaller molecules   show
🗑
show Contain the necessary info. for proper folding & organiz. essential in structure  
🗑
show As its being translated on ribosome it undergoes self-assembly=Polypeptide necessary for proper folding and final config. to give correct shape. Assisted self-assembly by chaperones=used for larger, more complex proteins composed of more than one polypep  
🗑
show Asstd. self-assembly must have assistance to form final shape. Chaparone does not form part of the protein. transiently binds to exposed parts of polypep. & prevents inappropriate interactions  
🗑
show PROTEINS-Amino Acids NUCLEIC ACIDS-Nucleotides LIPIDS-Fatty Acids POLYSACCHARIDES-Sugars  
🗑
show 20  
🗑
show A peptide bond (covalent bond) formed b/w amine group of one amino acid and carboxyl group of next amino acid  
🗑
Amino acids are classified by what?   show
🗑
What are the 3 types of amino acids? How many belong to each class?   show
🗑
show Oxygen & Nitrogen in functional group  
🗑
show Six amino acids and they are hydrophilic  
🗑
How many polar charged amino acids are there?   show
🗑
Amino acids can exist in two stereoisomers (D and L forms) due to what presence?   show
🗑
What are polypeptides?   show
🗑
What is Translation?   show
🗑
What are the two ways that proteins may be composed of?   show
🗑
show Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, & Quartnary Structures  
🗑
show Based on amino acid sequence. The order of amino acids in the linear sequence of the protein  
🗑
What happens in the level of structure in a Secondary Structure?   show
🗑
show A 3-D shape due to the long-distance interactions within polypeptide due to hydrogen bonds & disulfide bonds. Polar covalent or charged are hydrophilic-exterior. Nonpolar are hyrdrophobic-interior  
🗑
show A multiple subunit of proteins formed by the interaction of multiple polypeptides to form multimeric structures. Example-hemoglobin  
🗑
What are the diff. functions of proteins?   show
🗑
show Are macromolecules that are nonpolar and have fatty acids as they're building blocks. They are hyrdrophobic (nonsoluble in water) ; soluble in nonpolar solvents; mostly hyrdrocarbon chains containing C and H; some have polar regions-amphipathic  
🗑
show To have both polar and nonpolar regions  
🗑
show Fatty acids, triglycerides, phopholipids, sphingolipids, glycolipids, steroids, and terpenes  
🗑
show A type of lipid that is considered a true fat. It is used for energy storage and a very efficient form of energy. Glycerol + 3 fatty acids  
🗑
show Fatty acids, Saturated fatty acids, and Unsaturated fatty acids  
🗑
show An unbranched hydrocarbon chain with carboxyl group  
🗑
show All singe bonds. Most fats are saturated fatty acids and are SOLID at room temp.  
🗑
What's the structural composition of Unsaturated Fatty Acids?   show
🗑
show A type of lipid that is amphipathic (hyrophobic & hyrdraphilic) and as such tends to self-assemly into membranes. Phosphate group replaces one fatty acid and they usually have alcohol linked to phosphate. Polar head group creates amphipathic structure  
🗑
show A type of lipid that is also amphipathic and primarily found in NEURO tissue or membranes. Its based on sphingosine-an amine alcohol.  
🗑
show A type of lipid that is amphipathic & found in the membranes of nerve tissue or on the outer surface of plasma membranes. They act as recognition types for other molecules to be attracted to them.  
🗑
What is a steroid?   show
🗑
What is the most common type of steroid?   show
🗑
show A type of lipid used in the synthesis of Vit. A, coenzyme Q, carotenoid pigments  
🗑
show Types of sugars that are storage and structural molecules. Made of monomers of simple sugars (monosaccharides)  
🗑
show For storage  
🗑
show For structural purposed only in PLANTS  
🗑
What are the diff. types of monosaccharides?   show
🗑
What are Disaccharides?   show
🗑
show Nucleotides  
🗑
show Nitrogenous base; Pentose Sugar & Phosphate  
🗑
show By a phosphodiester bond b/w phosphate group & sugar of adj. nucleotide  
🗑
show 5' to 3' direction  
🗑
show Storage of genetic info-DNA; expression of genetic info.-RNA; source of utilizable chemical energy in cell  
🗑
show Protein-peptide bond; Nucleic Acids-phosphodiester bond; Polysaccharide-Glycocidic Bond  
🗑
