Environment where H+ > OH- | Acidic |
Environment where H+ < OH- | Basic (alkaline) |
Blood pH level | 7.44 |
What happens to proteins when the level of H+ is high? | They attach to large protein molecules causing the form and function of proteins to be changes or disrupted. Proteins no longer function causing them to break down and putting the human body in a life threatening position. |
A solution with a pH of 6.99 is considered to be | Acidic |
Buffer | System of molecules that aborb or release H+ to help maintain the relatively stable pH level |
Synthesis means | to make. |
Hydrolysis means | loosen it with water |
polymers are assembled by | dehydration synthesis |
polymers are disasembled by | hydrolysis |
examples of disaccarides | sucrose, maltose (grains, starches)- called malted grain, lactose (milk sugar) |
