| A | B |
|---|
| Function of carbohydrates? | immediate energy |
| organic | comes from living things, have C + H |
| inorganic | nonliving, has water (H2) |
| building blocks of carbohydrates | monosaccharides ex. glucose |
| hydrolysis | disaccharide + H2O enzyme monosaccharide + monosaccharide |
| dehydration synthesis | monosaccharides + monosaccharides = disaccharide + H2O |
| building blocks of lipids | 1 glycerol + 3 fatty acids |
| dehydration synthesis of lipids | 1 glycerol + fatty acids + enzymes ---lipid +H2O |
| hydrolysis of lipids | lipid + H2O = 3 fatty acids + 1 glycerol |
| function of lipids | stores energy, insulation for cell membrane |
| function of proteins | builds living material, cells, tissues, hair, enzymes, hormones |
| building blocks of proteins | amino acids |
| dehydration synthesis of proteins | amino + amino enzyme--dipeptide + H2O |
| hydrolysis of protein | dipeptide + H2O enzyme--amino + amino |
| example of a disaccharide | 2 sugar |
| example of monosaccharide | 1 sugar |
| define polysaccharide | many starch, bread and potatoes |
| defind amino acid | protein blocks building |
| define dipeptide | 2 amino acids |
| saturated fats | bad for you |
| HDL | good |
| LDL | bad |
| source of saturated fats? | animals |
| source of unsaturated fats? | plants |
| worst type of fat | tranzs fat - margarine |
| define activation energy | the energey required to "kick-start" (initiate) a chemical reaction. |
| define active site | the substrate molecules fit into this, somewhat like puzzle pieces |
| define enzyme-substrate complex | when the substrate temporarily joins with an enzyme |
| define induced-fit model | enzymes are believed to be flexible, changing shape slightly when the substrate enters the active site |
| an example of induced-fit model | a tight pair of jeans |
