| When proteins denature | they fall apart (they lose conformation) |
| High temperature and high Ph | can cause proteins to fall apart |
| Functions of proteins | make structured collagens, function as enzymes, transport hemoglobin, function as storage, function as antibodies, in some homones, and function in movement |
| Polynucleotide | a monomer of polynucleotide is a nucleotide |
| Polynucleotide made of a 5 carbon sugar | plus a phosphate group, plus a nitrogen base |
| Exergonic releases | energy (think exit) occurs spontaneously and is an oxidation reaction |
| Oil rig | Oxidation is loss and reduction is gain of hydrogens. |
| Oxidation | loss |
| Reduction | gain of hydrogens |
| Exergonic | has a negative delta |
| An exergonic reaction | is catabolism (breakdown of molecules) |
| Anabolism | is buildup of molecules. Requires energy |
| Endergonic | requires energy to occur so it will not occur spontaneously. =Reduction reation=0 or positive delta G |
| Photosynthesis | reduction reaction |
