1

Carbohydrates

Simple (sugars), (Uses)made of CHO, stores energy and helps structure. Monomer:Monosaccharides. Polymer:Polysaccharides. Ex glucose,starch bread cellulose

New cards
2

Lipids

(Fats and oils), CHO (sometimes P).(uses)long term energy, insulation, protection and waterproofing. Made of one glycerol + 3 fatty acids. Ex Olive oil, wax, steroids, butter, cholestal, avocado oil.

New cards
3

Proteins

(amino acids), CHON(sometimes S), (uses) builds muscles, skin and hair, speeds up chemical reactions, helps immune system and sends chemical medicine. Monomer: amino acids, Polymer: polypeptide. Ex: Hormones, antibodies, enzymes, HEMOGLOBIN.

New cards
4

Nucleic acids

(Nucleotide), CHONP, (uses) transmits hereditary information and stores instruction for cells, Monomer: sugar, phosphate group, nitrogen base, Polymer Deoxyribose and ribose. Made of a nitrogen base, sugar and a phosphate group. Ex:DNA and RNA

New cards
5

Phospholipid

A lipid that contains phosphorus

New cards
6

Saturated fats

Single bonded, solid at room temp, are usually bad for you(straight bond)

New cards
7

unsaturated fats

Double bonded, liquid at room temp and are good for you.( connected bond)[diagonal}

New cards
8

Hormones

help maintain homeostasis, thirst

New cards
9

Macromolecules

Large molecules; polymers, monomers, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids

New cards
10

Monosaccharides Simple sugar 1

simple sugars: glucose, galactose

New cards
11

Disaccharides: Simple sugar 2

sucrose, lactose

New cards
12

Polysaccharide

Glycogen (animals) Starch (plants) Cellulose (plants)

New cards
13

Peptide bond

joins together to become a polypeptide

New cards
14

Polypeptide

Folds polypeptides into the correct shape and become a protein

New cards
15

Hemoglobin

a hemoprotein composed of globin and heme that gives red blood cells their characteristic color

New cards
16

Chemical reactions

(Reactants) cellulose + oxygen. ---------> (reaction)=(products) Carbon dioxide + water vapor

New cards
17

cellulose

what all cell membrane is made of

New cards
18

Catalyst

speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy. It is not changed by the reaction.

New cards
19

Enzyme

A biological catalyst,(Speeds up reactions by lowering the activation energy)

New cards
20

Optimal Temperature

A certain temperature where the reaction rate is the highest.

New cards
21

Optimal pH

A certain pH were the reaction rate is the highest.

New cards
22

denature

When an enzyme passes optimal temperature or pH

New cards
23

Endothermic

When energy is absorbed over the course of the reaction

New cards
24

Exothermic

When energy is released over the course of the reaction

New cards
25

Enzyme substrate complex

Where the enzyme and the substrate combined to either become a substrate and an enzyme or a enzyme and two products.

New cards
26

Activation energy

The energy needed for the reactants to make a reaction

New cards
27

Phospholipid bilayer

2 layers of the cell membrane made of Hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails

New cards
28

Hydrophobic

Fatty and tails(lipid) fear of water

New cards
29

Hydrophilic

phosphate head(likes water)

New cards
30

Selectively permeable membrane(semi permeable)

some molecules can enter or exit but not both

New cards
31

Simple diffusion

a type of passive transport that moving molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration does not use ATP. Way to maintain homeostasis.

New cards
32

Facilitated diffusion

a type of passive transport that moving molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration does not use ATP. Uses protein channels or carrier proteins.

New cards
33

Osmosis

a type of passive transport that moves water from a high concentration to a low concentration. Moves from Hypotonic to Hypertonic. Does not require ATP

New cards
34

Hypertonic

When there are more solutes on one side

New cards
35

Hypotonic

When there are more water molecules on the other side

New cards
36

Isotonic

When the two sides of the membrane have equal solutes

New cards
37

Lyse

To burst

New cards
38

Osmosis Facilitated Diffusion

protein channel that uses aquaporin to move large amounts of water molecules

New cards
39

polar molecules

slightly charged(reject non polar)

New cards
40

non polar molecules

no charge(reject polar)

New cards
41

Active transport

transport of a substance across a cell membrane against the concentration gradient. Low to high concentration that requires ATP.

New cards
42

What does ATP turn into after it is used.

ATP turns into ADP

New cards
43

Endocytosis

takes in larger molecules

New cards
44

Exocytosis

(golgi) push out large molecules

New cards
45

extracellular

outside the cell

New cards
46

Intracellular

inside the cell

New cards
47

Protein membrane function

Channels and pumps Some attached to cytoskeleton Some form receptors

New cards
48

Carbohydrate membrane function

Act like identification cards

New cards
49

Phagocytosis

larger molecules

New cards
50

Pinocytosis

smaller substances

New cards
51

DNA

genetic material that organisms inherit from their parents. AGTC

New cards
52

subunits of polymer

New cards
54

Polymer

many monomers bonded together

New cards
55

Dehydration Synthesis

The process of building monomers to build a polymer by removing water from the reactant side
