lipid (triglyceride)
|
mostly c-c and c-h bonds, very nonpolar
|
|
lipid (steroid)
|
3 6-carbon rings, 1 5-carbon ring, mostly c-c and c-h bonds
|
|
nucleic acid
|
strands of nucleic acids bonded w/ hydrogen bonds
|
|
carbohydrate
|
monsaccharide, 1:2:1 ratio of c:h:o, RING FORM!
|
|
protein (amino acid)
|
carboxyl (cooh), amino hydrogen (NH2) and r group, all attached to central carbon
|
|
nucleic acid (nucleotide)
|
phosphate, 5 C sugar and nitrogen base
|
|
phospholipid
|
lipid with a phosphate group ( - charge) and two fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule. this gives it a polar phosphate (hydrophilic) end , and a nonpolar fatty acid (hydrophobic) end.
|
|
starch
|
a polysacharide with BRANCHED structure that is used as STORAGE form of carbs in plants
|
|
chitin
|
a polysaccharide found in the exoskeleton of insects and the cell walls of fungi
|
|
cellulose
|
polysaccharide with LINEAR structure that is used for STRUCTURE
|
|
glycogen
|
a polysaccharide with a BRANCHED structure that is used as carb STORAGE in ANIMALS
|
|
primary protein structure
|
linear sequence of amino acids, formed by polypeptide bonds (from dehydration synthesis)
|
|
secondary protein structure
|
in which the alpha helix and beta pleats are formed from hyrdogen bonds
|
|
tertiary structure
|
3D structure created by hydrogen bonds, disulfide bonds (same molecule), ionic interactions (+/-), etc.
|
|
quaternary structure
|
interactions between polypeptide chains
|
|
saturated fatty acids
|
only single bonds, allows molecules to be very close and increases the LDFs between them (much more stable)
|
|
unsaturated fatty acids
|
contains at least double bonds, kinks keep molecules farther apart, decreasing LDFs
|
|
fructose+glucose
|
sucrose and water
|
|
glucose and galactose
|
lactose and water
|
|
glucose and glucose
|
maltose and water
|
|
glycosidic linkage
|
bonds between monsaccharides, polar covalent
|
|
three kinds of lipids
|
phospholipids, saturated fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids
|
|
function of steroids
|
a type of cholesterol, structural components in cell membranes
|
|
roles of proteins
|
enzymes, structural components, hormones, immune function
