long hydrocarbon tails attached to nonhydrocarbon compenent
geometic isomers
arisis from inflexibility of double bonds which will not allow atoms to joi rotate freely around the bond axis (differ in spatial arrangements)
enantiomers
the ones that mirror each other like the parkinsons
what is something to note about all functoinal groups
hydrophilic and thus increase the solubility of organic compounds in water
Hydroxel

structure
name of compounds
example
functional properties
(--OH)....ends in a hydrogen remember

Compunds: Alcohols
Example: Ethanol
Properties:
1. Polar as a result of the electronegative oxygen atom drawling electrons toward itself
2. Attracts water molecules helping to dissolve organic compounds
Carbonyl
Structure: carbon joined to an oxygen by adouble bond

Name of compound : --Ketyones: if the carboynl is within a skeleton
Aldehydes: if its at the end of the carbon skeleton

Example: Acetone
Propanal

Properties: may be structural isomers with different properties
Carboxyl
--(COOH)
name of compound: organic acids
example: acetic acid
-has acidic properties because it has an extra hydrogen ion
Amino Group
NH2
-glycine
-acts as a base, can pick up a proton from surrounding sollutoin
-ionized with acharge of 1+ under cellular conditions
sulfyhydrl
-thiols
-two suflyhdural groups can interact to stabalize a protein
-phostphase
-makes the molecule which it is a part an anion
-can transfer energy between organic molecules
sucrose

lactose
galactose and glucose
maltose
glucose and glucose
most abundunt organic compound on earth
cellulose
primary structure of a protein
determines the shape of a protein, which determines the function

differnet R groups do it
secondary strcuture of a protein
results from hydrogen bonding

oxygen and nitrogen are electornegative causing them to fold over on one another
tertiary structure
results from interactions of the R group

rregular loops and folds that give the protein its overall three-dimensional shape
quarternary structure
results from combination of 2 or more polypeptides

hemoglobin is an example
protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells
First, information is transferred from DNA to messenger RNA. The RNA leaves the nucleus and carries the information it received from DNA to the ribosomes. The message in the RNA sequence of nucleotides is translated into a sequence of amino acids, which are linked to form a polypeptide.
what are the 2 strands of nucleotides held together by in the double helix
hydrogen bonds
differences in rna from dna
uracil replaces thyamine
single stranded
sugar is ribose
what joins the molecules and whats the reverse
dehydration reaction...hydrolisis
How many molecules of water are needed to completely hydrolyze a polymer that is 10 monomers long?
Nine, with one water required to hydrolyze each connected pair of monomers
Triose sugars (c3h603)
glyceraldehyde

dihydroxyacetone
pentose sugars (c5h1005)
ribose
ribulose
hexose sugars (c6h1206)
glucose, galactose, fructose
what do glucose molecules do in aquauous solutions
form rings
homolouges
codes for the same traits but can be slightly different depening on the genes of your parents
what do the 3 dna things look like
mRNA=linear
tRNA=clover leaf
rRNA=makes up ribosomes
what room in your house is associaed with ribosomes

ANDY GEIGER FED HIS CAT PURINE CAT CHOW
antiparallel
In the DNA double helix the two backbones run in an opposite f’ to ‘ directions from
what do lipids have none of
oxygen
how can the stored energy from startch be retrieved
hydrolosis
ester linkage
bond between a hydroxel group and carboxyl group
difference in saturdated fat visually
saturdaated is straight and unsatured is bent
what do phospholipids do when added to water
they self–assemble into double–layered aggregates—bilayers—that shield their hydrophobic portions from water
Compare the structure of a fat (triglyceride) with that of a phospholipid.
Both have a glycerol molecule attached to fatty acids. The glycerol of a fat has three fatty acids attached, whereas the glycerol of a phospholipid is attached to two fatty acids and one phosphate group.
example of contractile and motor proteins
actin and myosis...cilia and flagella
example of hormonal protein
insulin
example of transport protein
hemoglobal
example of storage protein
ovalbumm, casein
example of structural proteins
sil fibers, kerotin
chapernonins
a protein that assits the proper folding of other proteins
The type of bond that forms to join monomers (such as sugars and amino acids) into polymers (such as starch and proteins) is a(n) _____ bond.
Covalent
Example of a polymer from quiz
cellulose
In what polysaccharide form do plants store glucose to be available later as an energy source?
starch
how can disaicahrides differ
There are different disaccharides because they are composed of different combinations of monosaccharide building blocks or different types (bond angles) of glycosidic linkages.
Lipids differ from other large biological molecules in that they
are not truly polymers
why is saturdated fat more unhealthy
Saturated triacylglycerols have more hydrogen atoms than unsaturated triacylglycerols.
when comparing phospholipids and fats n oil.s...
Phospholipid molecules have a distinctly polar "head" and a distinctly nonpolar "tail," whereas triacylglycerols are predominantly nonpolar
