UGH

What is TRUE about the breakdown of starch, and complex carbohydrates

Organisms breakdown starch into carbohydrate subunits (Glucose)

WHEN do humans store fat molecules in their bodies?

When they eat more calories than they need

How do children use food molecules to grow taller
Children grow taller when they...

use food molecules they eat to build large molecules that make up new cells

What are facts about enzenes

1. Are usually made of proteins
2. Speed up reactions
3. Can be "denatured" if the pH or temp are not ideal conditions
4. Can be used many times

Why do plants usually grow in soil

Non-food nutrients and water from soil help

Apple ---> Beginning of digestion ---> Sugar molecules from apple ---> ????

Break down further into single glucose monomers???

What are the 2 main things that go in and out of the Human Body

CO2---> OUT O2---> IN

Many farmers, gardeners and scientist use a technique called "hydroponics". This is because it allows farmers to grow 2x as many plants in half the space.

By Deff, a hydroponic plant is a plant that............

is not grown in soil but is provided with required nutrients

Special proteins that speed up the CR that breaks down food are known as

Enzymes

A_________________ changes the arrangement of atoms. For example, oxygen reaction with food to produce energy.

Chemical Reaction

Breaking down food into smaller monomers or elements is called....

Digestion

This enzyme works to speed up the breakdown of starch:

Amylase

___________ are one of the three food molecules, made up of Amino Acids

Protiens

Growing plants without soil, usually in a water solution is called...

Hydroponics

Plants need ALL of the following to grow EXCEPT
1. Water
2. Light Energy
3. CO2
4. ALL plants need to grow above the ground

4. ALL plants need to grow above the ground

What is the Law Of Conservation Of Energy

Energy cannot be Created nor Destroyed

based on the Law Of Conservation Of Energy, which of the following is TRUE?
1. The products and reactants of a CR must be the exact same
2. The # of atoms on the reactants of a CR must be the exact same on the product side
3. The Coefficients placed in front of a product must be the same Coefficient in front of the reactant
4. The molecules of a CR should be the same on both sides of the equation

2. The # of atoms on the reactants of a CR must be the exact same on the product side

What is used to indicate the presence of glucose

Benedict's Solution

What is used to indicate the presence of starch?

Iodine

Describe the process of digestion using toast as your food.

A piece of toast starts as a complex carb and is broken into smaller units of glucose.
