Aldose or Ketose
|
depending on location of carbonyl (sugars)
|
|
monosaccarides
|
monomers of carbohydrates. can be di-, tri-, or poly-
|
|
glycosidic linkage
|
covalent bonds between two monosaccarides by dehydration reaction to form carbohydrates.
|
|
dehydration synthesis
|
take out an H and an OH of two monomers to make a polymer.
|
|
Hydrolysis
|
breaking/splitting a polymer by adding water.
|
|
Phospholipids
|
hydrophilic lipid that is amphipathic
two fatty acids and one phosphate. |
|
amphipathic
|
Head is hydrophilic
Tail is hydrophobic phospholipids. |
|
Ester linkage
|
the bond found in Lipids
|
|
Trigliceride
|
fats with three fatty acids and one glycerol
|
|
Aldahyde
|
Carbonyl group at the end of a carbohydrate molecule
|
|
Ketone
|
Carbonyl group in the middle of a carbohydrate.
|
|
Peptide bond
|
bond found in protines
|
|
Maltose
|
an alpha glucose (sugar) with a 1-4 glycosidic linkage. formed with two glucose molecules.
|
|
Fructose
|
5 carbons, not 6.
|
|
Amalose
|
helix shape of plant starches. 1-4 linkages, all glucose, unbranched.
|
|
analopectin
|
1-4 linkages, every 34 links there is a 1-6 linkage making a branch.
|
|
glycogen
|
liver cells that are very branched.
|
|
Beta Glucose monomers
|
1-4 glycosidic linkages that are straight, not helical. (molecules alternate between right-side-up and upside-down
|
|
Cellulose
|
a beta glucose molecule used in the structure of plants and to coat the digestive systems of animals.
|
|
Chitin
|
nitrogen presence in animal polysaccaride. found in cell walls of fungi, exoskeletons of anthropods, and not glucose.
|
|
Glycerol
|
In dehydration synthesis, bonds to fatty acids.
|
|
Saturated Fats
|
all single bonds, no double bonds. solid at room temperature and can pack together.
|
|
Unsaturated fats
|
double bonds between carbons form kinks in molecules, making them liquid at room temperature because they cannot pack together.
|
|
Omega-3
|
unsaturated fat where the double bond is first found at the third carbon. (Example)
|
|
Peptide bonds
|
bonds to carboxyl.
|
|
Primary structure
|
beads on a chain, sequence of the 20 acids. Formed by instructions in DNA.
|
|
Phosphodiester bonds
|
bonds in nucleic acids
