3 Multiple Choice Questions

  1. Saturated Fats have on glycerol backbone and three attached fatty acids
    Unsaturated Fats are the same but are crooked in their shape or bent
  2. Structure: like shapes (pentagons, hexagons, etc)
    Examples: Glucose, Fructose, Ribose, and Galatacose
    Glucose Structure vs Ribose Structure:
    Glucose has six sides and Ribose has five sides
    Glucose has more letters so more sides.
    Functions of Examples:
    Glucose = energy sugar
    Fructose = sugar in fruits
  3. Definition: a long molecule made up of smaller subunits (monomers) which is linked by covelant bond
    How they are made?: condensation or dehydration synthesis in which monomers are bonded to form polymers using an enzyme in which water is removed
    Examples:
    monosacharides use dehydration synthesis to create disaccharides or polysacharides whose covelant bond is called glycoside bonds
    peptides use dehydration synthesis to create dipeptides and polypeptides whose covelant bonds are called peptide bonds
    lipids use dehydration syntehsis to form triglycerides.
    the reverse is called hydrolysis in which water is put back into the reaction to split the polymer into the separate monomers.
    REMEMBER TO LOOK BACK AT DIAGRAMS TO SEE HOW TO ACTUALLY DO IT.

  2. Glycerol and Fatty Acids Function and StructureFunction: store energy (lots of it), insulation (layer of fat right under skin to prevent heat loss), structure cell membrane, etc. Structure: has carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens CHO

          

  3. Distinguish between Organic and Inorganic compoundsOrganic has carbon in it
    EXCEPTION: Carbon Dioxide = inorganinc
